Each week I donate a little over 10% of my income to charity. I want to give more but then I feel guilty, like I'm depriving my children in some way. I pay my bills and have zero debt. My children have everything they need and quite a few of their wants. Some weeks I give over 20% because my heart breaks for those who are affected by war, famine, disease, and natural disasters. With so many suffering so much I know what I give is just a drop in the proverbial bucket but I believe every little bit helps.
I don't know how to phrase my question. Should I feel guilty about giving more? Am I being silly?
