Children begging in Delhi from Carl

Our bus was stopped in traffic and these children showed up. Should one give them anything. Our host said that their parents send the children out to beg to avoid working themselves and we should not encourage it. Perhaps this is true, perhaps not. I gave them some money anyway because our host might have been wrong with regard to these specific children. Also, I enjoyed their show and felt I owed them something
