It is a choice, on the child's part, to be born to parents who fail to
provide for their children?

It is a choice to be unaware of educational opportunities, and to have been
told all your life that education is somehow a bad thing/only used by the
enemy who oppresses you and your family?

It is a choice to have addictive, health-depleting drugs forced on you
before you are mentally capable of appreciating the dangers?

There are ways out of poverty.  But not all of the ways in are entirely
voluntary.  Some people wind up starving and must be dealt with on that
level, before they can be dealt with as rational people who can afford the
time to learn employable skills.
