Father takes 7yo Daughter to Commit Suicide from Chroy Changvar Bridge

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

This is heart-breaking. Poor girl. Hopefully, there are other family members who will want to take her in. Her mother for example ?
There are so many NGOs to save kids in Cambodia, but most of the time the kids' problems are caused by wider problems in society like family break-ups due to poverty, domestic violence, and migrating workers/parents, or as in this case, a lack of social support for the mentally ill and their families.
:evil:

And as an aside, as someone else mentioned, there have been a lot of suicides or attempted suicides from Chroy Changvar Bridge recently. The copy-cat effect is a real problem as well.

What about the man in Sydney yesterday who killed both his teenage kids with the handgun and then killed himself. What a fucking arsehole.

I can agree with that,, it's a common problem in custody disputes and there are plenty of places for women to get help when problems arise but there is very little help for the men and until that area is sorted out the end problems will continue.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
