WHY ???  Just because they or their parents dont earn enough ?  
Lets suppose I dont have enough maney for a program even if I work hard for 
it.  Just tell me why is it in this case worse for a programmer if I copy the
software and use it for my own purposes ?  Don't tell me he loses money,
because we supposed I dont have enough money so I wouldn't pay for the stuff.

 JB> maybe they should do a little work,
Yes. Unfortunatelly 'that little work' is about three times as much here as 
it is at your place for the same software. Thanks, but no thanks.
I'm off now.
