Motherhood requires dignity and realising Children are meant to be tools. It's an eye sore to see family section filled with monikers claiming to be mothers or single mothers, they quickly follow it up by playing the begging card. "I am single much and want to buy chicken for my baby but I have no money please help me". Are you not ashamed?
"Am a single mum, struggling to make ends meet I can use it to buy chicken for I and my son". The next way to cash out now is to attach your (imaginary child) to you begging formula /tactics?
What is the difference between woman under Idumota bridge begging with twins or triplet and changing location everyday? No responsible mother would use her child to beg (draw unnecessary sympathy). This foolery and shame has to stop.
If you can't rely on your main family members, church, islamia or local government chairman with your needs, that means something is wrong with your behavior. You need to check yourself. If your baby is suffering or you are cash strapped, there is alot of ways to secure surplus help rather than using your motherhood to cash out

Because they know that the mentioning of suffering children evokes emotions from people.

Cuz people are more sympathetic to children than adults.
