Maybe if this happens agian you can confront her and let her know that you don't apricate her children coming to your door everyday and if there is an issue with her not being able to afford food maybe you should sugest she apply for some assistance because you can not afford to feed your 4 children as well as hers.

Just tell them NO. Explain that those things cost money and you can't just give it away.

Apologize and say you don't have any, and if they find someone that does if they can get you some as well lol.

Have your kids do exactly the same to her until she does something about it.
