selling flowers: 4:31am

Manila, Philippines

...actually, it's my friend Edison (Rosa's brother) who's being pimped out by his biological Mother to "beg" for money from foreigners outside a girlie bar...at 4:30am no less - so it's understandable that I'm pissed off over this child I've known, taught & fed for the past 4 years has been reduced to this.

His Mother recently came back into his & Rosa's life after not having custody of them since they were 1yr. old - and the Mother at a young & able-bodied 35 years of age either will not work, can't find work, prefers not to work, or simply thinks that it's ok to pimp your kids in Metro Manila each night from 8pm until 6am, then bring them home deprived of their sleep, and attempt to send them off to school.
