ARE you a parent or guardian who gives out your children or wards to relatives or complete strangers to act as domestic help and other forms of bonded labour? Are you a businessman who utilizes children’s labour for a variety of purposes, or are you engaged in the trafficking of children across borders into other countries? If you are involved one way or the other in the aforementioned acts, now is the time to become aware that there are international protocols, domestic laws and Acts which prohibit such acts of child abuse. Now is also the time for you to come to terms with the reality that child trafficking and exploitative and all other forms of child abuse are serious and punishable offences and that there are stiff penalties for contravening the laws prohibiting the acts.more

After talks on suppressing trafficking, they did not provide solutions on how this problem is going to be solved so that parents don’t loose out or a burdened with taking care of the kids. How would a mother of 6 take care of her kids better than how a master would? Some people send their kids out so that they are exposed to the city life; have better education, food and possibly a better future.

Why have six kids if you don't have the means to give them a decent life?Isn't that cruelty against innocence?

Do the parents know that? Isn’t it assumed that the more number of kids that one has the luckier the parents would be in future when they kids all end up as doctors and lawyers....Why did they talk of educating parents to give birth to the number they can cater for but rather reminding us of what we already know more elaborately?

Such parents don't deserve to have kids in my own opinion.One just don't bring innocent lives to this cruel world just to "use" them to enrich oneself.That is the task of a right thinking individual.
