Koze avè m

Stéphanie Daniel gen 23 lane e li soti nan bakaloreya ane sa. Li aprann plonbri sanitè e apre lanmò papa l li tal fè ladesant kay moun. Lè l te fèk rive kay la yo te byen akeyil men sa pat pran anpil tan pou yo te chanje avè l ; yo te kòmanse maltrete l, bat li pou dan ri, fèl fè travay ki pat pou laj li, rele l rèstavèk. Epi yon jou pandan la l chèche dlo lannuit pou matant li, 6 jèn gason mete lapat sou li. Jodia Stéphanie gen yon timoun ki konsevwa jou swa sa. 8 lane apre move eksperyans sa gras ak sipò anpil òganizasyon Stéphanie rive kanpe e li gen kouraj pou l pale de move moman sa yo.

In the illustrious Ti Sentaniz, Maurice Sixto presents an issue that is very common in the Haitian society; the sad reality of children having to work as household servants under horrendous conditions. Colloquially known as restavek, this phenomenon is usually brought about either by the death or absence of the birth parents or caregiver or the lack of resources to provide for the child. Known for his usually bold and unapologetic writing, it can be observed that Sixto left out some of the most dreadful aspects of restavek in Ti Sentaniz.
Koze avè m sat down with Stéphanie Daniel, a 23 year old young woman who experienced this ordeal when she was brought to live with her aunt after her father’s death. She proves Ti Sentaniz to be shining lights into an issue that is not being spoken about loud enough by confirming that she was mistreated, not sent to school and order to do chores that were not suitable for a child of her age. She goes further to confide that today, she is mother to a 8 year old son whose father she does not know because he is the fruit of a rape she was the victim of while running errands at ungodly hours for the household.
