Don't Feed the Ducks:
It Makes Them Dependent
by R.S. Rood
Don’t Feed the Ducks is a charming children’s tale about the dangers of feeding ducks at the pond, where the ducks become too dependent and forget how to fend for themselves.
This delightful story is inspired by real events in Ashland, Oregon, when townspeople, with good intentions, unknowingly harmed the ducks they were trying to help.
What began as an act of kindness turned into a bigger problem—until an unexpected solution changed everything.
At its heart, Don’t Feed the Ducks is a meaningful metaphor about God’s creation and care. It teaches children that true love sometimes means allowing others to remain free, capable, and self-reliant as they were created to be—rather than dependent.
