Poor People Shouldn’t Have Children

by Yvonne Coverdale in Issues, April 13, 2011

This is the cry of some unthankful adults many of whom were born from the very same poor background they now abhor so much; should you not have been born then? Most of todays wealthy came from poor people.

All in all if I hadn’t been born my oldest daughter wouldn’t be here to take care of the elderly and disabled as I had and my oldest son wouldn’t be unloading trucks for consumers to enjoy their shopping. If you think taking care of elderly and disabled is a picnic in the park maybe you would like to wipe someone else’s butt or changing someone else clothing and bedding after a stint with diarrhea or lifting people that weigh three hundred pounds or more to keep them from falling in a shower or if bed ridden; well I think you get the general idea.

If you are asking if these people my daughter and I work or have worked for have family the answer is yes they do. The people I worked for every member in the home held jobs but the family my daughter works for only most of them have jobs; the one or two that don’t work certainly doesn’t want to take on the responsibility of doing this kind of work themselves. It’s a servant’s job.

Some or most of you may scoff at what I just said but if push came to shove would you enjoy this kind of work if you could have someone else do it? Really think about that; it takes a special kind of person to work around people when you or they have absolutely no idea how long they have to live anyway. These are people that are needy and can’t do for themselves. Yeah it’s a dirty job but someone needs to do it and it’s better if the person doing it does it with a loving and kind heart and not just because it’s a job.
