years old and the average cost of a human is only 90 dollars, so if you really think about it almost everyone can afford these innocent people and use them as a money machine by forcing them to do agriculture, working at restaurants, as well as prostitution. Yet, I can see why this is a problem that still grows knowing that people in poor countries have to sell their children to get money.

Sex trafficking is a worldwide issue that is prevalent in many countries and is defined as “a form of human trafficking that almost always involves the forced prostitution of women, although it does fall upon men as well, often children.” This issue is a form of modern day slavery that unfortunately occurs more than it should.

When it comes to women, the body is often turned into a commodity in the form of prostitution or is seen as a sex object for male domination.
