Otherwise, feed your own kids

Where I live, we are told not to feed the ducks because they will become too lazy to look for food in their natural habitat and start waiting for people to feed them. This is what some of these types of programs do to people.
It’s like tying a baby elephant to a stake, and as it gets bigger and could easily escape, they don’t bother because they accept that the stake won’t let them escape.
