is it wrong for a child...

yesterday i went to church..as usual alone..
anyways, i was home at around 2 in the afternoon...i fixed some things..and at around 3 pm, get ready to
church..the mass will be at 4 in the afternoon and it will be the last english mass for the day.

at around 330pm, i was already at the church...i do that so that i will be able to grab a seat near the door to get some fresh air..although it is raining at that time..

for several months that i have been going to the church..i would usually see kids helping drivers get a good parking space since the area does not have quite large space to accomodate all churh goers who have cars...

it was only that afternoon that i have come to observe one child who are helping drivers and are "hoping" for some penny for the service..hoping is the term because not all are giving him something..

the kid was there, sitting, waiting for cars to arrive..signal them for a good parking space...some follow, some do not; some pay while other just ignore them..

i was thinking that those people are a bit cruel..they seem to use the boy's help and not giving them something in return..it coud be the boy's way of helping his parents for their food..it could be a boys way of having extra allowance for school...but on the other side, the money might be used on drugs or alcoholic drinks..

if i would see some beggars, i would actually would want to help them..if i could see somebody especially a kid who is working i would salute them...but hopefully, those money they are earning would really go to their education or food or for their family....


just some thoughts...
