2 months ago, I was working downtown and on the street a woman asked me for some money, she didn't seem like your typical crazy homeless person and spun this whole story about "I'm really sorry to bother you, this is so embarassing, but I just moved here with my mom 2 days ago, and I have a little sister, and I'm expecting, and we're getting some money on Monday, but in the meantime we're strapped for cash, could you buy us a loaf of bread or some milk or anything to help us out?" I gave her $5, and she seemed appreciative and gave me a hug and was on her way.
2 nights ago, I was at a club in the same area, and ran into her again, her belly definetley got bigger, and she spun me the same story again about how she just got there 2 days ago. I ended up giving her $5 just to be over with it since it was in the middle of a bad snowstorm. But half of me thinks I should have called her on it. I have to wonder if she's a junkie putting rock into her arms and killing her baby in the process. What would you do?
