I just get that way when people try tio control what i do and then whine about ingratitude. I don't need anyone's charity. My dad once told me that as long as he was supporting me i had to jump thru his hoops, so i told him where he could stick his money and left. that was 19 years ago and i haven't been back since. During a brief flirtation with Christianity, they kept trying to control me so i told them where to stick their church, their ancient book, and their dead saviour and haven't been inside a church since 1988. I never take free handouts because there's always hidden catches. If you get something free then you're expected to be grateful (which means you owe them something). I don't have much, but what little I have is mine and i don't have to kiss anyone's @$$ so even though it means doing without at least i can be proud of the little that i have.
