Starving Children

Short story from during my time living with the Annos, my Ghanaian host family:

Essie, my "little sister," was picking at her food. Lydia (my "mother") turned to her and said, "EAT IT! There are starving children in China!" To which Essie responds, "what can I do? Can I mail it there?" I started cracking up. It was very inappropriate of me. I hope you see the irony in this as much as I do.
