Hi my fellow lotters...Have you experienced being robbed or snatched? I still have this post traumatic feeling after my Gold bracelet was robbed 2 days ago outside the Shagrila Mall in Mandaluyong.I feel some degree of fears somebody will be following me and I am starting to be paranoid too whenever i go out these days.How can i possibly overcome these fears and anxiety now? Worst to realize is that, it was not an adult guy who robbed me but a boy merely with an age estimating to more or less 11 to 14 years of age. Whats happening to our society, a streetboy turned into a thief? I am sad for my countrymen resorting to this doing...What's the government institution role about this social issue, do they fail with the role they play with this???HELP please to all concerned Phil. citizen!!!

Many teenagers got this work due to poverty, infact they learn this behavior to the adults. Who made stealing as thre profession.Additional truth behind this social issue is that they are infact promoter...I think that blame lies on the hands not purely on goverment institutions but also to the parents and bad influenced people surrounding these street kids.

Yeah, I guess you're right, they should not be blamed but what about us poor victims! The government should do something about this so the street children would not be a prey to some syndicates urging them to do this kind of a job.It is a wrong way of life, as the end does not justify the means!
