Help

 
I understand that people like to help, in devastation and chaos; which is all well and good for those in that situation, but let's think about this for a moment, each and every state has families who are struggling. Jobless or demoted, homeless, neglected, plagued by domestic violence.  Friends, family, neighbors, or even perfect strangers, in need of our help and protection, lives barely hanging in the valance.

Now, please don't miss understand; but just because it's hundreds or thousands of children in need of a helping hand, maybe the result of a horrible storm, or an explosion, which is not the norm.

There are hundreds of thousands of people living in most states, I am sure they can figure out a way to survive, and rebuild the lives at stake.

Why do we send people from all over the states to help these children, when right next door, or across the street, children could be starving or being beat.

We don't send out the national guard to their rescue, instead they are left alone, in the middle of a family feud.  

I guess all I am trying to say is we need to take care of the children in our state, before our resources jump state lines, and now we are left with tiny, fragile bodies to find.
