The original uploader of the story on Facebook has issued an apology regarding the issue.
In a private message sent to The DailyPedia, she said:
“I was the one who posted on Facebook about the young girl from Jollibee Ermita last Friday night. I would like to request to delete your post regarding the said issue. I have already talked to the mother of the child and we agreed that I should delete my post because it was all a misunderstanding. The child is now with her mother and my mistake was I did not verify her situation at the end of that day. So kindly please delete your post. Sorry, I made a mistake, and I should be responsible about it. Kindly consider this for their privacy and for my privacy as well. Thank you very much. God bless!”
