Anyone who takes advantage of any person who is vulnerable and weak, marginalized or disadvantaged is not a right thinking person but someone who is inflicting further cruelty and suffering and perversion towards these groups of people.

There is the necessity, a vital necessity to note that the above-mentioned groups of people are in difficult circumstances due to the vicissitudes of life, and not because of their own doing, and therefore there is a need for patience, understanding and compassion.

The circumstances of these groups of people can be considered as unforeseen and needs tact and sensitivity in examining the issues affecting them in order to help and assist these individuals draw level with everyone else.

The worst thing that is happening to these groups of people is that they are being exploited and abused by those who should know better that what they are doing is only serving to cause greater pain, suffering and hardship on these groups of people.

Those who have, under their charge and responsibility, people in these groups, should be aware that they have to sacrifice and forgo often their own needs to look after and share the responsibility of caring for these people.

But the price to pay is very worth it, as there can be no greater joy and satisfaction to witness people in these groups being able to live independently and without any need to come anymore under the supervision of mercy.
