In 2015, a nine-year-old girl testified and wept in open court as she narrated that she “was deeply hurt because her father had another family and loved another woman other than her mother.” ManilaBulletin
The trauma of the young girl was highlighted in the decision of the Supreme Court which affirmed the conviction of a father for violation of the Anti-Violence Against Women and their Children Act under Republic Act No. 9262.In 2009, the mother sent to Singapore to work.
