[QUOTE="tryinghard, post: 170766, member: 4570"] I just got the chance to tell my husband and I cried telling him. It was such a small thing that obviously meant so much to him. I will never forget his face and the absolute look of gratitude and humilitation combined. On two previous occassion in the last year I have been approached by women asking for money in parking lots. Both times I said I couldn't help them. Both times I regretted it after. Once I did not believe the young women really need money, the other was an older homeless women who jumped out of the bushes while I was with my difficult child. My first instinct was to say No and keep walking. My son asked me why I told her no when I had money. That kind of caught me off guard and made me think. I guess this was my chance to redeem myself. I wish I had more than two dollars... [/QUOTE]
