A growing number of parents are sending private investigators to check whether their children have gone astray, sometimes even overseas.

Eight out of 10 private eye agencies contacted by The Straits Times said they have seen a rise in such cases.

One director of a private investigation firm said his company has seen a 20 per cent year-on-year increase in such requests.

"Parents get worried when they see changes in their children's behaviour - for example, if they get a tattoo, or start staying out late," he said, explaining the reasons his clients usually cite.
