poverty, well what is it, growing up with another 12 sisters and brothers, did i ever go without, well compared to others yes and compared to some not at all, did i have pocket money, no, did we eat three meals a day no, did we go without anything no, it was what we were brought up with, you all can go on about figures and this and that, and yes there are some unfortunate children in this country, but its down to the parents to help them get out of the poverty they find themselves in.

Today i am very fortunate to have what i want when i want, but i dont choose that, i make sure that i wont go without in the future, the problem i see is rather then put food on the table people would rather have the latest game or clothes, just my thoughts no offence meant to others who are struggling to live
