Who among you will send their child to bed hungry? Does the God you claim to follow allow you to ignore the crying child with an empty belly? Do children have a choice or the ability to fend for themselves? What would Jesus do? You tell me.

Where does one start?

"One person in four there is undernourished. Poor nutrition causes nearly half (45%) of deaths in children under five - 3.1 million children each year. One out of six children -- roughly 100 million -- in developing countries is underweight. One in four of the world's children are stunted."

Jesus would probably get a job and take care of his child, not depend on others to do for him what one can, and should do for themselves......pretty sure he would not tax me for the burden created by another either.....actions have consequences.

It's the parents responsibility to feed the brat.

And the God I follow never told me that it's my responsibility to feed every child who's parents are too stupid or too lazy to feed them.

I fed my boys until they were old enough to feed themselves.

That was my responsibility.

I pay taxes out of every damn pay check I've ever received.

My tax money goes to feed the brats of lazy ass parents who live on food stamps.

If that ain't enough for you bleeding heart Jack@$$€$, then by all means you can kiss my grits.

You poor dumb Goobersmoocher.

Do you believe a child with no money should have their food taken from them in the lunch line at school? Is that the right thing to do? Would you do that?

I wouldn't steal money from others.

Thank you for the information. Seems we have plenty of money to blow people up but we are broke when starving children concerned.

I have always paid my own way . I live in the second poorest county in Oregon. My first grader just had a Valentines day party at school. All parents were asked if they could bring a treat to the classroom. My wife was the only parent who did.

"Plenty of more to blow people up"? If we do not have a strong military, we would fall prey to people who are far more cruel to other people - especially children - than you seem to think we are.

I have been in a similar situation.

But what I am hearing from you (and correct me if I am wrong) is that the parents are responsible?

No, I would not send my children to bed hungry but, unfortunately, a lot of welfare mothers use their money to buy drugs not to feed their children. Others buy McDonalds meals for their children because they are too lazy or stoned to buy whole chickens and rice and beans, which they have to cook before feeding their children. Our church has a weekly pot luck dinner where we all bring food ready to eat and everyone, even those we don't yet know, is welcome to come and eat. We even deliver food to several families who have no way to get there. Unfortunately many of these people refuse to cook the food we donate. These people have money for booze and drugs, but not to feed their children. What keeps going through my mine is that ALL those women should be spayed, and as quickly as possible.

There are times when everyone may need a hand up, a hand out, or support. I do not know anyone who will turn their backs on anyone, be it child, man, woman, or beast when they are in need. Having said that, there also comes a point when good intentions of simply providing temporary help becomes a way of life, expected, or even demanded. And there comes a time to stop promoting women who give birth to litters of children with the expectations that society is responsible for those babies and by extension the man who simply supplied sperm and the woman who took no precautions or preplanning in the event of pregnancy. Expecting to abort the baby is not an acceptable form of birth control. Living on charity affords no future.

Hand outs/up or support have to be temporary, but there are some who would rather relax with their X-box or engaging in other distractions than finding a job and keeping said job. If assistance becomes the past, present, and future expectation, the "provider" has to stop and consider whether they are solving the problem or are saps and enablers. Whether welfare strips people of p***e and self-respect. That raises interesting problems; how many years should the public be responsible for providing for adults or children, should the assistance be for our own citizens or be inclusive of the world, should there be a maximum on the number of life long dependent children and what to do about over reproduction in a family, if we are to expect some individuals to always live on charity, should we consider opening spay and neuter clinics to control that over population....and that opens a new can of worms.

I have no idea of what Jesus would do, he lived in another time under different circumstances. As far as I can determine, he never worked and lived off of charity. However, there is no place where it is implied that he was promiscuous or produced children with the expectation that they too should live on welfare. Same goes for his cousin, John the Baptizer, his brother John, or any of his disciples.
