JOWHAR, Somalia (AP) - Some days, Lul Haji Adam listens to her youngest son wail with hunger as she scrupulously divides up the food she has scraped together between the 65 members of her extended family.
But the Somali mother, who lives in the relatively quiet middle region of Somalia, would never dream of closing the door on relatives fleeing the fighting in the capital, Mogadishu.
"I have so many mouths to feed. Sometimes, when there is nothing, I feel responsible," she explained, squatting with her daughters by a pile of sacks containing grain and beans distributed by the U.N.'s World Food Program. "I feel a lot of pressure."
