With all our talk about human trafficking in this part of the world and what Opportunity Foundation is doing about it, let’s not forget it is really everywhere. In the U.S. we have had laws against it longer, but there is also more money available to earn by breaking those laws. The traffickers are bad guys, all right, but what about steady supply of customers wanting to use young kids, or maybe just “not noticing” that the girl they are having sex with is might be younger than they thought? If the customers were not there, the traffickers would not be either.
It could be a lot closer than you think. What if you find someone you know is using children like this? Can you really stand by, do nothing and let a child continue to be enslaved? If you see or hear of anything along these lines, please get in touch with authorities.
