JOAN became a child prostitute when she was 14 years old. She adopted this horrible life-style at the insistence of her own mother, who told her that she was beautiful and that men would like her very much. Besides, she would earn a lot of money. In the evenings Maria’s mother took her to a motel where they made contacts. The mother remained nearby to receive the payments. Each night, Maria had sex with three or four men. Not far from Joan's home, Tania was about six years old when she was sexually molested by one of her brothers—the first of many incestuous acts perpetrated on her. She became a prostitute at the age of 14.
In many parts of the world, the problem of child prostitution is a frightening reality. The results are tragic. Often, child prostitutes, whether occasional or full-time, also become involved in crime and drug abuse. Many of them feel frustrated and worthless, seeing little or no prospect of escaping their wretched lives.Influential personalities recognize the devastating effects of child prostitution.
Countries where such a practice is common, tolerated, accepted, and even sought after because of the [money] It brings experience every day the devastation that it causes. Any financial profit it may produce is inevitably annulled by the individual, family, and social disasters generated by such a practice.
Yet, despite the noble intentions of those who want to stop child prostitution, the problem is growing,this corrupt system has failed to ensure that all children are given a loving home and a secure future.Child prostitution is a barbarous crime, it is one of the largest criminal activity.
In various lands there are about 100,000 child prostitutes on the streets, especially in areas where there is drug traffic. Due the high incidence of sexually transmitted diseases, such as AIDS, customers are willing to pay far higher prices for children who are considered more likely to be virgins and thus less likely to be infected. Men fear AIDS and this cause them to seek younger girls.
Child prostitution continues to thrives in an environment of misery and poverty. Some parents claim that poverty led them to sell their children into prostitution. Street children resort to prostitution because they see it as their only means of survival, of making money.
Those parents should be made to spend the rest of their live in jail.
Sometimes teenagers are sent to other countries to work as prostitutes, Prostitution within these countries is also encouraged, with tourists from wealthy countries coming deliberately to take advantage of the ‘services’ provided by young people and children. So sad 😔.
Some of the prostitutes are as young as 12. Frequently the products of broken homes, they sleep wherever they can find a space during the day, and cruise the discos. Despite this gruesome reality,these girls never dreamt to be prostitutes, many young prostitutes “want to marry” and dream of a “Prince Charming. More is needed to stem the tide of sexual exploitation. Some governments and other organizations are fighting against sex tourism and child prostitution. But, realistically, there is little that men can do, as humans have become architects of their own misfortune. I believe there is still hope for these unfortunate children! What about you?
