我现在要写的是Darren Tan与我的事。我在芽笼酒店做晚班柜台，在一次偶然之下我碰到他，那时他是帮那些泰国妓女拉客，我非常好奇为何现代那些龟头请这样小的人拉客？他那时刚过十五岁。我就跟他谈了一下，在他的身上我看到我过去的背影。他目前还小，如他不学好，那他以后就会像我那样。我为了要了解他，所以我开始跟做朋友。
Later I found that his mother left when the family was very young, and is currently living with his father and his stepmother, his stepmother gave birth to two younger half sisters. He said his parents do treat him well, so he is very rebellious. He has a biological sister who lived in Andrew and Grace Home because his father attempted to rape and molest her. In order to find out the truth, I went to ask Pastor Andrew and he confirmed the matter. I persuaded him not to work as a pimp, at the same time made him understand the complicated nature of the surrounding in Geylang. He kept long hair and I told him to cut it short. I was
glad that he listened and cut his hair short. I gave him some financial assistance, and helped him to find a proper job. It was difficult to get a job for a 15 year old. Eventually I helped him to get a job at a packaging factory. He was happy there.
后来我才知道他母亲很小就离开他们，目前他父亲跟后母一起住，他后母生了两个小妹妹。从他那里我知道他父母亲都对他不好，所以他很叛逆。他有一个亲妹妹，是同一个母亲所生。那时他的妹妹住在Andrew And Grace Home, 原因是她告他的父亲企图强奸 她和非礼她，我为了要知道他所讲的是真是假，所以我去找牧师Andrew问，他证实了此事。我开始劝导他不要去做那些工作，同时也让他了解芽笼的复杂环境。那时他留了一头长发，我也叫他剪掉。我很高兴的他肯听我的话，把他那头长发剪短。我开始给他一点经济上的帮助，同时也帮他找一份正当的工作。但是以他那种年龄是在难找工作，没什么人要请十五岁的儿童。最后我终于帮他找到了一份工厂的包装工作。他开心的在哪里做。
Before I knew him, he had committed a number of offences, such as theft and glue sniffing, and he was charged in court. Due to his family background, he was not given a probation. He was sentenced to two years in juvenile detention.During that period, I often wrote to him and told him not to give up on himself. I also went to his father to tell him that he was responsibility for his son's imprisonment. I was pleased to that his father changed after I spoke to hiim. He visited Darren frequently. I could only write to him to give him my support and encouragement. On the day when his father was busy, I would visit him with his sister. Every month I brought him items of daily necessities and stationery (he was taking N Level examination in the detention center). I knew that his father had financial problems, so I did not mind care spending money to help them. Of course, I also love this child. He has been in the detention center for more than a year, I am very happy to see that he has clearly changed for the better. Several months ago, he was given permission to spent the weekend at home, I bought a laptop specially for him so that he could stay at home for Internet access and not wondering outside. Well, I know young people need to go online. Every month I spend about one-tenth of the salary on him.
由于我在认识他之前，他已犯了一些案件，如偷东西和吸GUM，所以他必需被控上法庭。由于他的家庭复杂，所以`得不到Probation。因此他被判了两年的儿童收容所。在这期间我时常写信给他，告诉他不要放弃自己，我也去找他的父亲跟他说如今他儿子被关在里面，他也必需负上很大的责任。我很高兴在跟他父亲讲后，他有很明显的改变。他会在每个探亲日去探Darren。那时我只能常常的写信去关心和鼓励他。当他父亲忙时无法探他，我就会带他妹妹去探他。他在里面的日子里，我每个月都会帮他买他所需要的日常用品和他要用的文具（他在里面考 N Level）。我知道他父亲的经济问题，所以我不在乎出钱出力的去帮他们。当然我也很爱这孩子。他目前已在里面关了一年多，我很开心的看到他有很明显的变好。在几个月前他可以获得周末在家过夜时，我特意去买一台Laptop给他。原因是如他在周末回家时，有了电脑，他可以在家上网，那就不会往外面跑。现代的年轻人都需要上网嘛。。我每个月都需要用上我十份之一的薪水在他身上。。
I saw Jin Mei, Darren's sister, once every month as I take her along to buy things for Darren. She told me that his father and stepmother do not care about her. She lived with her grandmother after she left Andrew And Grace Home. She was one year younger than Darren. I gave her fifty dollars pocket money every two weeks, so that she could buy something to eat. I helped her for about more than a year. I decided to stop two months ago, because I found that she had lied to me. It turns out her mother did give her money every month, and she took from me at the same time, so I would not give her money anymore.
关于Darren 的妹妹Jin Mei，我每个月都会见她一次原因是要带她去买Darren所需要的东西。她跟我说他的父亲和后母不管她，在她离开AndrewAnd Grace Home后，她就住在她婆婆那里。她比Darren小一岁，我每两个星期都有给她五十块零用钱，好让她买些东西吃。我也帮了她一年多了，在两个月前我不打算去帮她了，因为我发觉她骗我。原来她妈妈没个月都有给她, 而在她妈妈给后她又跟我拿，所以我不再帮她了。
I met Jann two months ago. I got to know her in the Internet chat rooms, where she was looking for some quick money. I was surprised! She was only 17 years old. I would matter less to me if she were a foreigner, but she is a Singaporean! In order to know her better, I lied to her that I was interested in her. We me but I did not have sex with her. I just talked to her to learn more about her, and I paid her the money she needed. It was $300! After getting to know her, I found that her IQ is not high, she is the kind that can easily be taken advantage of. She began toengage in sex when she was 13 years of age.Earlier this year, she was drugged and raped by few people, her friends called her a slut. No one sympathies her, instead they make fun of her. So she refused to go to school and stayed at home most of the time. She shied from others, and later she resorted to smoking and drinking. Of course, those stuffs need money to buy, isn't it? So she would go on the Internet to make some quick money. I also know some of her clients are much older than her and have many special desire over her. I wish I could kill those perverts as they should not prey on such a young girl.
关于Jann，我在两个月前认识她的。我是在网上聊天室认识她，那时的她在哪里找快钱。我很惊讶！因为她只有17 岁。如她是外国人也罢，但她是新加坡人啊！我为了要了解她，所以我骗她我对她有意思。因此我约她出来，但我没有跟她发生任何关系。我只不过根她谈，同时我也借此机会多了解她，淡然我有给她她所需要的快钱。三百块啊！！认识她后，我发觉她的智商不高，是那种很容易被人欺负那种。她在13岁就开始有性行为，在今年初，她因被朋友利用而遭几人谜奸，因此她周围的环境与朋友都讲她是个下贱的人。但没有人同情她，反而去取笑她。所以她不再上学，而大多数时间都关在家里，也不敢面对她人，后来她就自暴自弃的抽烟喝酒。当然那也需要钱来买，对吗？所以在需要时，她就会在网上找快钱。同时我也知道有些客人年龄幔大的,而在过层中要求多多。我真不得把那些变态的人杀掉，玩也不该玩年龄这样小的。
I had a long talk with her, pursuaded her to stop finding quick money. It is not worth being bullied for the money. After that day, I gave her pocket money almost every week. We are like father and daughter, and sometimes I take her out with me and the other youngsters to eat and watch movie. At the same time, she makes new friends, of course I did not tell the others about her past. I told her to forget about her past like a dream, and to live for her future. I am doing my utmost to help her. I will call her every other day. If she runs out of money, I will transfer
$50 or $100 to her from the bank account. Fortunately, she does not spend much, so it makes me even more to want to help her. Thank God, I finally helped her to find a job as a packer at a factory. Although the wages are not high, but the factory provided shuttle bus near her home, which is good! She has been working for two weeks. When she needed help I will reach out to her. I believe she will have a normal life soon. I told her that if she does well, I will give her a big red packet next year. I am really happy to see that she is no longer being bullied by others. Young people has to be protected!
那天我与她谈了许多，也劝她不要再找快钱。为了那一点点钱而让人欺负，真是不值得。在那天过后，我几乎每星期都有给她零用钱。我跟她好像父女那样，有时带她出来与我那些小朋友一起去吃饭与看戏。同时让她有新的朋友，当然我没有把她的过去告诉其他人。因为我跟她说，把过去当成一场梦，不要再去想它，为将来而活。我会尽力的去帮她。我没隔几天都会与她通话，如她没有钱，那我会用银行转账五十或一百给她。还好她很省用，所以这使我更加的要帮她。感谢主，我终于帮她找到了一份工作，是在工厂做包装工。虽然工资不高，但有厂车在她家附近接送，那也不错啊！现在她已做了两星期，在她需要帮助时我都会伸出手来帮她。相信过些时间她就会有正常的生活了。我告诉她，如她好好的做，我答应在明年会包个大红包给她。真开心
她不用再被别人欺负。小孩子因该受保护！
Willie was the first youngster whom I met. At that time he was just 19 years old. His father had died, and had a difficult time at home. He was serving in the army, and ran into financial difficulties frequently. He begun selling smuggled cigarettes outside the entrance of the hotel I am working, and I persuaded him not to.I did now know how not to use a computer then. I had been jailed for so many years, how would I know how to use a computer? So I asked him to teach me, and I paid him a little money for that. He often ran out of money, I tried to help him as much as possible. As I know him for the longest time, he is the one I helped most financially. Although he was poor, but he is thoughtful. After completing the national service, he quickly found a decent job. Month, he would deposit $200 of his salary in a joint bank account with me. He agreed that I could use his savings to help other people when necessary, and to replenish back later.I am really happy that he allow me to use his money to help others when I've run out of money...
关于Willie， 他是我第一个所认识的年轻人。那时他刚十九岁。他父亲早已去世，家境很困难。由于他那时在当兵，，所以时常发生经济困难。那时他刚刚在我酒店门口卖走私烟，我马上劝他。那时的我还很笨，不会用电脑。我被关了许多年，那能会用电脑呢？所以我叫他教我如何用电脑，那我就给他一点金钱上的补贴。那时他常常不够用，我也尽力的去帮他。他是我所付出最多的一位，因为我认识他最久的一位年轻人。他虽然穷，但他很会想。服完兵后，他也很快的找到一份不错的工作。每个月他的工资都会留两百块存在我跟他的联名户口。他也同意如我有需要时可动用他的存款去帮助其他的人，但当我有钱时必须扑回去。
Will be continue..... 继续。。。。
