iccky: The footage of real children suffering is much harder on me than a bunch of cartoons. The problem with charities is that there are far too many of them, and they all want some of your money or time. The constant badgering doesn't affect the sympathy I feel for people who are suffering, but it does severely decrease my desire to respond to a particular charity when there have been a dozen who've already solicited me that week.
