there is a man that comes to my house everyday asking for a little food. I hate that he comes here but i feel so bad for him so i give him food when he comes. Now it seems that he is always hangnin around the area. how do i get rid of him and i dont want to get him in trouble he is just lookin for food. I feel so bad for him but its getting very annoying because i have to do extra groceries for him now. I cant afford to do it anymore

tell him to go to a homeless shelter or somewhere where'd he get a free meal without having to go door to door begging for one

You will be blessed for giving, especially since you can not afford it. You should see if you can set him up with a mission or something of that nature. Also you could explain to him that you love being a blessing but, you can only afford to do it once a month. And, if he still shows up, remind him of what you told him. Eventually he will get it, when he only gets, blessed once a month. That way you can still be a blessing but, you are in control of when, and how. We have to be careful sometimes when we help people that are less fortunate than we are, so that our joy will not turn to regret!

Tell him you can no longer afford to feed him and that you don't want him to come back. If he comes back, tell him sorry, no food. If this continues more than twice then call the police to have him warned and removed from the area.

Has he ever offered to do any work around the house?If he hasn't I would just try to not go to the door till he finally moved on. I couldn't never say anything mean to someone like that, but if it came to me eating or him I think I could .Good luck you have a heart of gold:)

Hi..I know it sounds terrible, but if you don't want him to come anymore you have to tell him, and stop feeding him..
Perhaps there is a shelter nearby by that you can direct him to..Or notify the shelter about him..maybe they can help him..
Good luck to you....and to him also!

Tell him the neighbors are complaining, and the police told you not to feed him anymore because people in the neighborhood are getting nervous.

I would tell the man that you are unable to continue feeding him and suggest that he go to a homeless shelter or somewhere to get help.

I used to have that problem with squirrls. Point him out to the nearest mcdonalds and tell him to get a job.
