[quote:StellaWayten:MV80Nzc0NjgwXzg3MDI5NzM5XzQzRDYzRkMx] [quote:Happy in Nature:MV80Nzc0NjgwXzg3MDI4NzEyXzVFOEVFM0FF] Bringing awareness to the problem and arresting, prosecuting and imprisoning everyone from the cartel leader to the guy who willingly downloaded kiddie porn on his computer is the way to prevent more victims. Stopping future abductions, rapes and murders is just as important as trying to help the current victims. Being a parent is hard. Being a parent to a child sex trafficking/sexual abuse victim is even harder. In teh US, a foster parent does not have a legal right to know the details of abuse unless the child shares with them, You don't know if the child you are bringing into your home is an arsonist, raped a sibling, witnessed a traumatic event, tried to kill herself or a family member.... You cannot be a good parent unless you know the details of the child's trauma so that you can find the right therapy and therapists inetead of the useless CPS case worker. When one takes in a foster child, they cannot request a sex trafficking victim. If the purpose of a foster care is to help sex trafficking victims, then it is hit or miss whether hat will happen. Also, 60% of sex trafficking victims in the US are believed to have passed through the foster care system before they were trafficked. I want the industry to end. I want compensation for the victims and for them to have access to a wide variety of therapies to fit their personal spiritual/biological/emotional needs. I also want an end to wars, the MIC, the CIA, and the Deep State. I want nuclear power plants shut down and an end to industrial pollution. I cannot adopt a foster child, but that doesn't mean that I have no compassion for the victims or that the issue isn't one of my roots activist causes. I share information with people in a manner that caused many of my progressive friends to understand the pedophilia rings in Washington DC. Several didn't vote for Biden because I brought attention to the issue in person and on FB. This only ends when the majority of the people become aware of the heinous acts by the minority who are controlled by the elite blood lines. I have land that I planned to turn into a homesteading school and ecological education center and eventual community. Recently I have thought about trying to find funding to create a retreat center for the DUMB victims to introduce them to nature while bringing in special therapists who can integrate the introduction to the natural environment in a sacred spiritual/non-religious manner while finding outlets to release the pain and heal from the sexual trauma. I thought of writing to Ivanka Trump to ask for help. At the same time, I am aware that this might be more of an idealistic fantasy because my real calling is for the education portion of my project. This has been my vision and dream that I have actively worked on for 5 years. My goal is to find green entrepreneurs who want to live, work and teach on a permaculture farm. If a random person said, "Here is $2 million, make the center for DUMB victims," I could do it and have it built and staffed appropriately in a year or less, but it would require a continuous injection of cash to pay for the therapy, food and accommodation upkeep. This requires NGOs, government agencies and a bureaucracy in the search for donations in a world wher teh economic collapse seems imminent. If the Universe introduces me to this random stranger with $2 million to spare and wants to deal with all of the legal and funding issues, then it is a sign that is what I am meant to do. In the meantime, I am going to continue with the permaculture/business aspect because all the signs have taken me in this direction. As much as I want to do something, I am not sure that is my role, although I am always open to gifts and surprises from the Creator. I share this because my decision to not radically change a vision I have had since 2012 because my heart strings are tugged by the thought underground victims does not mean that the issue isn't important to me. I am not in the position to take in a foster child, but your sweeping generalization that unless we run out to adopt children, we somehow don't care about the problem is wrong. You have a good, beautiful heart. Please don't berate people who cannot live up to your solution, despite the good intentions behind it. I am glad there are people like you willing to take in foster children and treat them as your own. I wish more people would do this, but I see so many people who have not dealt with their own issues that there seems to be a dearth of potential good parents who can help a child heal from their wounds. Many are not qualified to be parents and could create more harm. I feel the frustration behind your post. Big hugs and lots of love to you and your beautiful children. [/quote] That isn't true. Before you adopt a child you get to go over all paperwork. There are more than enough people out there that have the means to adopt every single child out of the system yet they aren't doing it. And that frustrates the hell out of me. And THAT is who I'm speaking to. And most don't do it because they don't want to inconvenience their lives. Well FUCK that. If you claim to care about kids then step out of your selfish self and adopt one. [/quote]

I read so many people being so upset about child trafficking. Yet most of these people do nothing about it. Absolutely nothing. You may ask yourself... What can I do about it? Well I will give you the answer.
The FBI estimates sex trafficking in the U.S. involves 100,000 children,
60% of child sex trafficking victims recovered through FBI raids across the U.S. in 2013 were from foster care or group homes.
So what you can do is adopt a child out of the foster care system. When I've mentioned this people say... I can't afford to adopt a child. This is a lie. Those people haven't even looked up how much it costs to adopt a child out of the foster care system.
In Texas if you adopt a child that is a minority over 2 or over 5 yrs old white or a member of a sibling group it is free to adopt if you use an attorney provided. You also get a monthly stipend of $400 per child and the child gets free medical care and free college tuition to a state university.
I'm assuming that other states have similar incentives. I will be looking it up and posting the results here. I would appreciate anyone that already knows the incentives in their state to post them here.
So put your money where your mouth is and adopt a kid out of the foster care system if you really give a shit about kids.
