A 12-year-old (or maybe 11) Philippine girl hanged herself after leaving a letter under her pillow describing her failed hopes and aspirations. She just hoped to have a pair of new shoes, a bicycle and finish schooling — but her family just couldn’t afford. There are no electricity and running water in her house. The night before her suicidal, she asked her father for 100 pesos (about $2.30) for a school project, but he doesn’t have it.
It is too late when his father finally got 1000 pesos cash advance the next day, the girl is no longer alive. [Full News]
So sad
May her soul rest in peace.
That is sad…RIP…
Sadly, that is the case with a huge percentage here in the Philippines. The poverty rate here is incredibly high.
I think India is more likely worse than Philippines
And when someone says to me “Survival of the fittest” line, I want to destroy everything about that way of thinking. Things like this just should not be.
