Sport Relief/Children in Need

[X&Y]

Sport Relief is on in the background

Can i just ask a question

Sport Relief has been around a few years and Children in Need for a few more and they and others charities have raised millions

Why the hell are we still seeing films of countries with no drinking water, places with shanty huts and general deprevation.

Where have all the millions raised before gone?

No i'm not a do-gooder..... just confused

Mind you it would help if the people in these countries didn't keep banging out kids for the sake of it >

Fair enough they don't have the luxuries of life we do

But if you cannot raise a child safely or economically, then don't do it

They have lots of children because many of them don't survive. It is important for them to have children to look after them when they grow older. It also does not help that they have been told for years that they will burn in hell if they use contraception.

I'm not trying to stir up a hornets' nest here

Just confused

They are raising huge amounts of money and there's still people shi**ing in rivers that are being used for drinking water.

Something's not right!!

Or a hornets' nest? I had to laugh, I'm having to google or phone a friend to find the right words these days, it's great to see it happening to a Young Person

And a West Ham fan to boot *eek*




Seriously though, the millions we raise are a drop in the ocean, a grain of sand on the beach, etc etc.

Children in need do amazing things for disadvantaged children.
