I drove by but the light stopped me literally right next to her. I had my two daughters in the car and my 4 year old goes "hey mom, I think she wants money". She wasnt close to us but my kid is really perceptive. She asked why she did and I said she was probably in a tough spot. My daughter started asking me if I had money in my wallet, and I kept telling her no because I didnt have cash. She started more urgently telling me "mom, we can give her coins! I bet she wants coins mom!". And I told her no and that we didnt have coins either. I looked in the rearview and this woman was all out sobbing and someone walking by had stopped to hug her and give her a pep talk. I nearly started crying myself. My daughter kept asking me to go get money and come back. I had to keep insisting that we not and why? I had to get diapers and food. And we dont get anymore money until tuesday. I ended up feeling so incredibly guilty because my daughter wanted to give her money, she felt so much sympathy for this person. But at the end of the day I need to feed my children before someone elses, and I hate living in that world. I also hate that it couldve all been an act by the person panhandling. I hate that my daughter also felt guilty. Later I asked my daughter if she wanted to give her money because she saw her crying. She nodded her head very solemnly and said yes. I told her I was sorry we weren't able to help her. She said it was okay and that someone else probably did. I really hope that was the case.
