When you help people they tend to expect you to do it so they don't change. For example, a bum on the street asking for money, you give him money and he keeps on asking for money. The next day he will be there, and he will stay there (or on another street at least.) If you really want to help him, help him get a job, get him a nice set of clothes to go to an interview with, something like that.
Whoever said that old phrase "Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, Teach a man to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime" or however it goes was pretty smart.
KREIA is the annoying bitch in KOTOR 2. She is a sith... Kinda. Anyway.
Why help people? Most people are ungrateful and don't deserve the help. However, when you do help them. They think it is expected of you. Face it. Most people are out for themselves. Choose your own path.
