Children for MONEY!

Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.
-- Mother Teresa

Children are for sale all around the world majorily from Asia! Would this get goose bumps on your impenetrable skin?

Money for Kids! or Kids for Money!

By kids, I mean children who are under the age of 18 trully speaking. Here is success story of a 16 yr old girl - "Cam Girl". I just read about her on the internet and could believe the story with my eyes wide shut.

Like most 16-year-olds, Renee's world is in her bedroom. She hangs out here with her friends, and spends hours on her computer.

But Renee isn't just sending e-mails or surfing the web aimlessly. She's running a highly profitable Internet business from here, one she says has earned her as much as $2,000 a month.
But what's she's doing in her bedroom would make a lot of mothers blush. Renee is a “Cam Girl”-- just one of hundreds of young girls who compete for attention on the Web by putting webcam photos and videos of themselves online.

Her site gets thousands of visitors every day. But it isn't free: For four days it's $5.95; for a month it's $15.95; for six months it's $59.95.

What do you get for your money?

There’s chat, information about how she does her hair and where she shops, and Renee’s daily journal. Renee has also posted more than 500 photos on the site. Some of them are sweet, some are strange, many are provocative. There is no nudity, however. Renee's mother Barbara claims she is mystified by Renee's virtual success, saying she has “no idea” why the site is so popular. “I hope it's her writing skills,” she says.

Like Renee, we have many teens working their way out to earn money like this with consent! I will talk later in my posts about the CHILDREN ON SALE WITHOUT CONSENT!

Its not just about 'Sushi' and 'High Heels'.....

There's more beyond, what looks so bright and happy around me. I recently went for an official assignment. We went to an upper class residential area in Delhi. Right behind the upper class private residences was an extremely harrowing experience we were about to go through.

On the other side of the road was the bling and all that attached with it that you can think of and on our side was darkness of a huge amalgamation of poor masses from uncountable regions across India and its borders most expected! In a week of rainy depressing weather and the rising inflation nothing was more worse than this sight we saw. A mob of poor workers and inhabitants across the street with fear in their eyes, standing around a dead man's body lying inside the police van...

Somehow, that day I was prepared to take, whatever came my way. This was a conclusion to a sudden outrage among two drunken men..."that's what a man told us". "What are are you doing here?"..."These accidents keep happening here..day and night"... was the look and conversation among the policemen I overheard and sensed.

I still want to go back to that place and know more about the people who live among us in our civil society !

VANDE MATARAM !!

In Devanagari script
वन्दे मातरम्
सुजलां सुफलां मलयजशीतलाम्
शस्यश्यामलां मातरम् |
शुभ्र ज्योत्स्ना पुलकित यामिनीम्
फुल्ल कुसुमित द्रुमदलशोभिनीम्,
सुहासिनीं सुमधुर भाषिणीम्
सुखदां वरदां मातरम् ||

Translation

My obeisance to Mother India!
With flowing beneficial waters
Filled with choicest fruits
With Sandal scented winds
Green with the harvest
O mother! My obeisance to you!
Ecstatic moonlit nights
The plants blooming with flowers
Sweet speaker of sweet languages
Fount of blessings,
Mother, I salute you!
