The cheaper sealed lead-acid batteries either don't have enough water in them straight from the factory, or water leaks out during shipping etc. I've had brand new batts need water immediately. Because they're sealed, you have to pry the plastic tops off to remove the rubber plugs and fill the cells with distilled water, then glue the top back on. Wear safety glasses just to be, safe.
When lead-acid batteries are charged gasses escape through the holes in the top. The fact that these batteries lay on their sides during charging means that water will escape instead of gas. Without water/electrolyte you don't have a battery, just lead plates.
Lead-acid batteries are damaged by being left in an uncharged state. How many kids do you think charge their batteries after they use the scooter?
Tip: Ever ride a bike with low tire pressure? Your scooter motor doesn't like it either, and pulls a lot of amps to compensate.
This is sadly not unusual for these things after some time of use. Depending on the quality of the product (battery, engine, etc). The battery often gets reduced over time, and eventually needs to be changed. I have no knowledge of this exact product, so it could also be a great quality, but faulty battery. In either case you would have to by a new battery.
Another possibility is heavy spinning wheels. Too much resistance quickly depletes the battery. Easy to check out by turning the front wheel, but the rear wheel is harder examined as it is connected to the engine. If you are unsure, you could remove the chain.
