OK, we see it differently. I believe in the concept of being a "good citizen", regardless of whether it's for a 16 year old girl who is lost and needs directions, or an 80 year old man who is struggling to carry bags across a parking lot. And I've done more of it since I became a dad. Some of them might appreciate it, some might not. But it's what I believe in.
