There are things in this world that are so horrible, it is hard for the human mind to conceive. Human Trafficking is one of those things that to the average person is so dark, the human mind has difficulty comprehending. Here is something very scary – it could happen to your daughter, niece, grandchild, neighbor, student, or son. The point is that just because we don’t think about something does not make it go away and it does not keep our loved ones safe.
When we think of human sex trafficking, most of our first thoughts go to those young girls overseas who are being kidnapped and taken from their love ones. Or we think of “prostitutes” as troubled youth who ran away from home. This article and video breaks both of those mindsets: New Jersey Teen spent 36 hours in the world of Sex Trafficking.
I hope everyone has had a great summer as it is quickly coming to an end. We are looking forward to hearing about the great adventures and trips that many of you took. Well school is starting back and as much as parents say they are glad and the children say they are ready to go back, changing from one routine to another can be stressful. We have children with great potential; remember every situation is an opportunity for teaching. A lot of times our kids are angry and they have great reason to be. In many cases, life has not been fair to them, they have things going on within their body and brain that they don’t understand and they do not know how to control themselves.
