i ALWAYS give when i can.
after experiencing what its really like to "beg" for money canning for dance marathon as an undergrad, i vowed never to ignore or say no to someone in that situation.
granted i work as a rehab counselor, and i KNOW that many on the street beg for cash to use, but i personally know what its like to feel ignored/snubbed and wouldnt wish that on ANYONE..
even if i dont have anything to give, i at LEAST make eye contact and say sorry... in my opinion, the WORST thing one can do is completely ignore them.
