We are very wary of hardship stories and know of many cases where a BG is perhaps technically taking a loving sponsor on a merry dance, there are many many details on the threads of this forum detailing such experiences but perhaps at times it would do us all good to just re-read page six before we castigate all BG's and their reasons for requesting financial assistance from us their wealthy friends. The tsunami was a major tragedy but perhaps not more so on a personal level, to the experiences of the girls we meet in Patong. Probably wrong thread to detail my thoughts on this but reading the details just made me think a bit more than I usually do.
