Some people suggest that it is wrong to give money to beggars asking for money on the street, while others think that it is the right thing to do. Which point of view do you think is correct, and why?

In
this
modern era, it's an irony that we still see few people on the roads or on the streets begging for
money
for their livelihood. Some people believe that it is wrong to give
money
to
beggars
, who ask for
money
for their food or for their living, while some think that
this
is the right thing to do. In my opinion, it is wrong to give
money
to
beggars
and I think
this
way
for two reasons, which I will explore in
this
essay.
Firstly
,
to begin
with, I would like to say that giving
money
to
beggars
is not a good solution

their problems,
however
, pragmatically there are other ways to help them,
such
as by educating them, by giving them food, or clothes. Since

instead
, we can take care of at least one person by all our plausible means.
For example
, nowadays there are various NGOs which are working for the better life of the needy one, we should guide them to follow
such
organisations and to become a part of them.
Subsequently
, I feel that the right
way
to help
beggars
is to teach them and to aid in knowing that, they can
also
do some
work
to earn their livelihood.
For instance
, if we keep giving them
money
,
then
this
will become their habit and they will make a wrong perception in their mind about getting
money
from others without doing any
work
, which instigate them towards a wrong
way
of living.
Hence
, it is better to offer them some
work
,
as a result
, they will know the value of
money

when they earn it with their own hard
work
. In conclusion, I believe that giving
money
to
beggars
when they ask for it, is the wrong
way
to help them.
Instead
, we should help in other ways, as mentioned in the above paragraphs, which will enhance their life in a better
way
.
