So, today I read an article named "Why is the child of a female beggar always asleep?"
The answer was rather disturbing. It seems like they put the baby on drugs or alcohol so that the baby doesn't bug the fake mom while begging.
Alright, to make more sense I'll shortly paraphrase what I read.

The subtitle is called "Helping others - seems like a good business"
The woman noticed that every time she passes a beggar the baby is asleep. She started to wonder why, so one day she asked the begging 'mom' how comes her child is always asleep? The woman just ignored her, but people around the woman didn't and they started to comment how dares she to torture the poor beggar. Later she called a friend who explained it to her... the babys are on drugs or vodka so that they don't scream all day long. Just imagine how annoying that could be. As it turns out, all that so unorganized business is very well planned and there are people with fancy cars and villas behind them, while the beggars do real dirty work for them and get the minimum out of it. But the point isn't really on them, it's a the misuse of children... some even die by the heroin/vodka shock and the "mother" holds a dead baby like that until working hour is over...
Anyway, the woman called the police but the beggar was gone by then. She realized then that she was tilting at windmills, yet I personally am very glad she spread the word, because more people will notice such things and think twice before they give money to the 'poor' woman, or even raise up against this whole wrongfulness.
