questions & answers...

1. What reactions and feelings do you have after watching the clip?

i feel so sad, they even resort to eatin leftovers...
and people are so wasteful. they should just give the children food if they are gonna waste it..

2. Why do you think some people are so poor while others are rich?

because rich people dont cherish wat they have and when they lose it, they would than regret..
do not waste thin just because you are rich.

3. Do you think what is happening in the video is fair? If not, what can be done to stop it? If you think its fair, why do you say so?

it is not fair. the people in the video could not choose which family to choose and they have no choice. they are hungry and cold, they must surviv so this is the only way. but everyone of us can have the right to make a decision and have the right to give. no one would scold or insult you if you did some kindness.
