Sex Trafficking
- “Sex trafficking is a modern-day form of slavery in which a commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such an act is under the age of 18 years.”
My Response: I feel awful for what the victims of sex trafficking have to go through and deal with. It also makes me sick how people lure the women, men, girls, or boys into sex trafficking by promising them a good job, a false marriage proposal, being kidnapped, or sold by their relatives. It provides me with a bit of comfort that when the government identifies a person who has been sold into this sex slavery, the government can help to get them help and help them rebuild their lives, but until they are identified, there is nothing anyone can do to help them.
