Marcelineis

Marcelineis, a 7 year-old restavek:

"I get up at 5 in the morning, and start by collecting the urine from the previous night, because the washrooms are outside the house. Then when children go to school, I sweep and wash the floor. Then I go and get some water, I go to the market and fix dinner. I work alone and never get any money; my clothes are the children's old discarded clothes, and I eat once a day. I would like to be bigger so the children would stop beating me."
