[quote=LEMONCACTUS ,27761]Last winter in Beijing I was walking home one night and saw a man sleeping on the side of a street covered with a cardboard box. He wasn't begging, but I felt sad for him so I put some money under the box.... I hope he found it.There are beggars here in my city, usually they are very old and/or disabled. Like California I always give them some change, just 1RMB can buy food.I have been to places (usually where there are more tourists/foreigners) where children have literally blocked my way begging for money. This really is a horrible situation and I feel I am being taken advantage of because I am a foreigner - in these cases I usually refuse to give them money - and they eventually move onto the next person. It is hard to know if they are genuine or not.[/quote]
