[quote=Anonymous]OP, are you looking to actually help kids, or looking to just avoid helping the parents whose lifestyle you don’t agree with? I live in an area with quite notorious social issues (no where near DC). What I’ve learned is that despite the fact that the parents seem to “live large”, the reality is still that these children, and in reality, these families, are very much in need. In many cases, despite what parents “could” afford by some standards, they usually don’t /won’t / can’t. The children still need backpacks, school supplies, electricity, nutritious food, warm clothing, and holiday gifts. Don’t punish them for the choices of their parents. From another standpoint, I do get your complaint. A few years ago, some of the conditions for holiday hampers changed here, and the griping on the internet was insane. [/quote]
