Change wordpress permalink structure for pages

Question

okay, I have 3 sections to a site

/section-1/
/section-2/
/section-3/

I don't want their child pages to have a reference to them in their permalinks

/section-1/apple/
/section-1/orange/
/section-1/banana/

The second level pages in each section will never have the same slug or title. I want the second level pages to look like this in their url:

/apple/
/orange/
/banana/

How do I do this? Happy to work in .htaccess

On your admin dashboard, under Settings -> Permalinks, you can choose a custom structure for permalinks, I believe this is what you're looking for.
