A 15-YEAR OLD Singaporean prostituted herself after
she felt neglected by her feuding parents who did not want custody
of her, Guan Ming Daily Reported.
The girl, who wanted a pair of branded sports
shoe at the time, decided to prostitute herself to buy the shoe instead of
asking for money from her parents.
“My parents were fighting among themselves – not
to get the custody of me – but to push me away,” she said adding that her
parents divorced in 2006.
Feeling rejected, the girl met 19-year-old
prostitute who persuaded the girl to sell herself for money. The girl was
caught by police and was sent to a youth rehabilitation centre, it reported.
The girl’s mother, who was a part-time
hairstylist and karaoke waitress, said she was shocked when the police told her
about her daughter’s sex activities.
I was earning $1,200 (about RM2,600) a month
then, so I worried that I could not take care of her. I wanted her to follow
her father so that she could have a better life.
“But her father decided to remarry and was not
willing to bear the responsibility,” the mother said.
