[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 392486, member: 3419"] You GO Star!!!!!!! Luv ya! I did that once to a guy who walked up to my open window at B&N. difficult child was in the car. The guy poked his head in right next to me, scared the #^&%%$* out of me, started in on how he was an honest guy, he wouldn't steal or do anything bad (why would you start a conversation like that?) and then of course, can I have some money? I was thinking about giving him something like a dollar, but all of a sudden, his 4 kids turned into 6, but he remembered that one still needed diapers, and oh, yeah, his wife had breast cancer. That's when I lost it. I was just finishing up my own radiation treatment and told him so. I said, "You'd better pick a better story next time, mister, because I've got breast cancer and I'm still paying my own medical bills!" Anyway, I know the feeling. When people hit a nerve, they hit a nerve. When you give, you do it because YOU FEEL THEY DESERVE IT AND YOU CHOOSE TO GIVE FREELY. You use your own judgment. Otherwise, as the girl said, it's stealing. Plain and simple. [/QUOTE]
