A maid from the Philippines was arrested on Monday for alleged abuse of a young boy in Kowloon.
When the boy’s 36-year-old mother, surnamed Fan, returned home at 10pm to Tak Ku Ling Road in Kowloon City, she found her five-year-old son had a red and swollen mark on his face, Apple Daily reported.
The woman checked footage from surveillance cameras installed at her home and found the maid, aged 34, allegedly struck her son at 4pm.
The woman reported the case to the police and sent her son to hospital for a checkup.
Police arrested the maid for suspected child abuse, Oriental Daily reported. Officers of the criminal squad at Kowloon City district are following up the case.

Dapat alamin natin and attitude/ character, ng mga Alaga natin, so that we know how to handle them. Kahit anong gawin ng bata, hwag! Saktan wala tayong karapatan, para saktan. Sila if naughty sila then call their parents para kausapin ang anak nila, we can’t even force them to do their homework if Ayaw nila. Just do our duty taking care of them and their needs and remind them to do their daily activities and to cook for them too. Stay calm lang
Kahit saang angulo tingnan masama o mabuti man ugali ng anak ng amo ..hindi dapat sinasaktan ang mga bata
Sinasabi mo lng yan kasi hndi ka nakaranas ng salbaheng bata khit 3 yrs old lng. Wag na humusga at magsalita kasi wala kayo sa position ng helper! Whatever circumstances sya padin ang hahandle ng kaso nya!
Sa lahat ng filipino workers if hindi ntin kaya e handle ang employer or one of family member find other employer kaysa makagawa pa ng pagsisihan ntin sa bandang huli kasi sa work ntin nanjan ang stress pagod
there’s no if’s and but’s to consider on this issue..im not judgemental but it is not right to raise your hands to any person that you’re taking care be it kids or eleders.if they do it to u then simply call the police and report or inform the parents for them to discipline their kids.if they do nothing then report to police or break contract to find new employer..
Gnun agad hnd man cnv ung side nung maid??? Kaloka! Petmalu!!!

Stated child,so why she hitted him back if happened that kid hit her ,,,,a CHILD IS a CHILD,be patience on dealing with them,cherish the kids cz they needed most of your care not your bare hands
And whatever be the reasons ,,,we dh are the wrong doers,,,so never never beat or even put your hands on kids ….Godless US akk
Aileen Neelia he said I’m ugly, fat, dirty etc…. The previous che che is prettier than me and fairer. If I wake him up he shout at me and if I change his clothes he kick me, hit me etc. No matter how I’m good he can’t accept me. There’s a incident that he threw slipper ,tissue on my face. Now that I’m leaving he is getting better, he smiles sweetly now and he said I’m pretty ????. I love him but I have no endurance if maltreated ????
Oh my.. Same here sis.. 5 yrs old boy hit me in my face twice and hit me in my head and other parts of my body. Im just controlling myself . instead i just hugged his siater and become more aggressive. The reason his crying and starting to hit me is bcos i told him the gift is not for him its for his sister. From the pick up point until we reached home his still hitting me. And the funny thing he hit me infron of the cctv. While his parents watching. God bless them.
At bakit nga ba Kung ang helper dyan sa hongkong ang may sala kaagad Naka headline dapat ganoon din kung employer kasi dami din dyan mga employer na abusado
Ako ayaw kung mag alaga ng mga bata,mas ok pa alagaan ko ang matatanda,wag lang bata,kc malikot cla kapag madapa ang mga bata,pagsisihin kapa nila.
We Filipinos love our wards. We consider in our heart that these children we are looking after are our own. Sometimes, we even become so attached to them that we hate to leave them.
But there are instances when our patience is tested to the limit because there are empliyers’ kids that are so naughty. That may have been the case in this news, the made broke down. This is a regretable case, but the police & the employers may also try to know the reason why the helper have hit the boy. And this may nor cause otherr employers to lose trust to their helpers.
Ganito nalang sana mabuti man o masama ang ginawa sana ibinabalita din nila kasi Mas maraming pinay na helper pa rin ang gumagawa ng mabuti kisa masama
By Asia Times Staff….? Where’s the reporter’s name on this article? This can be fake just to give Filipinos a bad name. How about reporting spoiled Chinese children abusing helper’s? Don’t believe everything we read.
