BTW, it's not a lack of compassion, it's just that there are way too many ways for it to go bad. First of all, if you weren't in that pizza joint, and decided to give a panhandler (or those kids) a dollar out on the street, you're all of a sudden standing less than three feet from him/them with your wallet open.
Think about it.
Help "the poor" another way.
