I just don't get it!

While I was watching the news today, I was shocked by the report of 23 people living in a house of filth (14 children). I just don't understand how some people resort to this kind of life style, and furthermore force it upon their innocent children. There are so many things out there to help people, so I really don't think that there is an excuse. I understand that it is harder for some people, but really this bad to have your children walk on floors filled with feces'. I see kids on a daily basis that I would love to take home and love them to death. It really makes me grateful for the wonderful childhood I had. Thanks, mom and dad! I really wish that I could help every child. So during the holidays I have made it my mission to help children that are in need. I challenge you to help at least one child during this holiday season also.
