There is a part of me that says, okay ... this is the world we live in and people will do what they need to do in order to survive. But there is always that part that sees this and simply wants to cry. Just one more dichotomy in this fellows journey through life.scobienz wrote:When they describe her as a piece of gold, it's almost heartwarming, until you realize that's exactly what they mean.gavinmac wrote:The PP Post article says the parents hope the 7 year old girl will support them by selling bracelets to tourists on the Riverside.

That wasn't what happened. Her mom is a hobo mess, and her dad is barely present. She met up with this other kid, who was just a bit older, and they spoke together of their miserable existences and decided to run away together to Siem Reap. They were just pals helping each other out, now she's back on the Riverside hawking strings with her strung-out mom looking on just out-of-sight.gavinmac wrote:Is she a really good bracelet seller or something? She was making so much money that someone kidnapped her and took her to Siem Reap and made her sell stuff to the hordes of tourists there?
I give vladimir grief for thinking everything is about money, but maybe he was right in this case.

Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
great, now shes back living on the streets working for her pimp again like a normal 7 year old we can all relax, a happy ending
I am happy she is found but now it sounds she is worse off having been found?

I bloody hate all those begging/homeless kids on the riverfront. I mean my knock knock jokes are completely wasted on the little fuckers.
My posts are just jokes, maybe they're rude, offensive, and politically incorrect. They're not my opinion, viewpoint, idea, or judgement, but they're just fucking jokes so lighten up.

What's wrong with that sentence?Alexandra wrote:
What language is this article written in? Whatever the editors smoked I'll have two.
The Post used to be cool, is it all run by interns now or something?The authorities were alerted to Hong’s disappearance after riverside restaurant owner Larry Luchok contacted NGO the Child Protection Unit (CPU).

You'd better watch it kid, or scobienz will cut your stipend, you've already lost your fantastic salary.
