My goodness, how you leap to conclusions!
No, I didn't say that, did I? Or even suggest it.
Here is what I said:
We have a responsibility to help those who cannot help themselves.
We have a responsibility to provide opportunity for those who can help themselves.
And we have a responsibility not to enable those who would prefer to be helped by others, rather than do anything to help themselves.
You might call this social triage.
Now, which group do you suppose children might fit into...??? Think real hard.
I agree with what you say in principle, but we should help on a case by case basis-no deadlines.
