My daughter had a friend in high school who was from a disadvantaged background. She tried to help the girl by setting up a job interview for her through another friend who worked at McDonalds. The girl then turned around and quit after about a week.
It was a tough but powerful lesson for my daughter.
You just can’t help some people.
Agreed. A couple of years ago, a coworker tried to help a few disadvantaged teenage girls by bringing them to our workplace for a day to see how the corporate world works. He’s a good guy and acted out of a good heart. Unfortunately, two of the girls began arguing and it turned physical. Security had to be called and they were all escorted out of the building. And these people wonder why they are where they are?
