I would go buy them something to eat and give that to them. I might give a few cents but never dollars. If they smell like booze I don't give them anything but if they look like they might actually spend the money on something good and I had it to spare I would always give what I can. God blesses those that help others.

I have had very bad experiences with beggars so I don´t give them anything. I do give something to eat to children who come to beg at my house. They are sent to ring bells and ask for money and they don´t get anything for themselves. It´s a sort of slavery only noone likes to call it that way. So I ask them to wait, make a GOOD sandwich and tell them to eat it in front of my eyes or give it back. They are very happy with that sentence. I never forget that I work for what I have. There are lots of people who want money but won´t work. Happy posting!

Over here , there are syndicates that force some kids or old people to beg and they took everything from them after their hard work. Your style of giving them is te best way . Happy posting :)

I am really broke and a few dollars is a lot to me. A few dollars puts enough gas in my car to get me back and forth to work for a couple of days. No...I don't just hand over a few dollars of my hard earned cash. That does not mean that I am not willing to help. If the person needs food....I usually have enough that I could share. I try to find out just what they need the money for. If I am able to help I do. If not, I try to direct them to a place where they might get help.
