Begs the question.....if people are starving, watching their children die from starvation, why do they continue to have them???? Giving money to all these organizations is just enabling the adults, in my opinion. Hell, I won't even get another dog because I CAN'T AFFORD TO TAKE CARE OF ONE. So why do these people keep popping kids out? Flies all over their faces, tears streaming down little faces, and mom is preggers with yet another one.
These people are starving....and *******...with no concern of the consequences.
So what is the solution? Giving money to feed the worlds poor who keep having kids? Or handing out condoms so while they are writhing with hunger pains they are having sex that will at least prevent them birthing more children? What? What is the answer?

Those commercials have been on TV for decades. Some of the children seen in them have to be in their mid 30's by now. It's basically the same commercials that's been aired for years. In addition, you rarely see one of those commercials of children in the U.S.A. The reason for that is, the money can easily be traced. It's a scam. If any of the money reached the kids, it's probably less than 10% of the donations. Those commercials are money making scams. Also, it's the same for those commercials of animals that need homes, abused, and starving. There are a million scams going on in this world, and the reason for them is that people fall for them, and keep those operating them in business.
What really puzzles me, is why don't the people that have money to donate, spend their money helping people here in the U.S.A. Why do they feel the need to send money half way around the world? We have homeless and hungry Vets, we have entire families living on the streets, in tent cities, eating out of trash cans and dumpsters, and without warm clothing in the harsh winter months. We have elderly that need medicines, help with food and utilities, and help with transportation getting to and from doctor appointments. In other words, why aren't Americans helping Americans first? The biggest reason that many organizations don't air commercials to help those in this country, is the fact that the money can easily be traced.
It's the same with religious organizations, churches, and others that collect money to build churches and other facilities in foreign countries. How many people are going to check to see exactly where all of that money is going? Ho much of the money stays here, and finds its way into the pockets of those begging for the donations?
As far as birth control in foreign countries, it's been tried for many years by different organizations, governments, and by some local authorities in affected regions. All of them have failed. You can't help people that don't want to be helped. You can't preach to deaf ears. And, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. Many poor countries are well documented as needing some form of birth control. But, how can they be forced to listen and to comply? As of yet, no one has figured out the answer. Part of the foreign aid packages that we've sent to African nations included funds earmarked for birth control measures. Obviously the money was ill spent or used for something else, or maybe lined pockets instead. Always beware of such scams as seen on TV.
