HONG KONG-SOCIAL-FAMILY-CHILDREN
TO GO WITH Social-HongKong-family-children,FEATURE by Laura MANNERING
This photo taken on July 31, 2013 shows 12-year-old Mary (R), not her real name, sitting next to her foster mother Carmen (L), also not her real name, during an interview with AFP at a Hong Kong Family Welfare Society office in Hong Kong. Life could have turned out very differently for Mary, who like many other 12-year-old girls in Hong Kong enjoys shopping, music and going out with friends, while she dreams of one day travelling the world as a flight attendant. Mary was taken into foster care when she was three years old, her biological parents addicted to drugs and unable to look after her as they drifted in and out of prison. Carmen, 47, who Mary calls "auntie", describes how the little girl was withdrawn when she first took her in five years ago -- her second foster home since leaving her parents.
