[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's something that's an anathema to southerners [b]asking for help when you are perfectly able bodied[/b]. For example, neighbor of mine, mid-westerner, just sent on the neighborhood listserv that since her friends with older children had just moved away, she needs to find some suppliers of hand me down clothing. Bless her heart, isn't she just so bold to put that out there? And so eco-conscious! [/quote] True. Maybe this is why we're usually so eager to help- because by the time some hard-ass Southerner gets around to asking for help, you figure they're in pretty dire straits. And does it even need to be said- if you are the one who receives the help, you better be sending a Thank You card out ASAP! [/quote]
