Child Slavery Alive And Well In The UK
An undercover reporter was offered several children for sale by their parents in Nigeria: two boys aged three and five for £5,000, or £2,500 for one, and a 10-month-old baby for £2,000. Teenage girls - including some still pregnant - were willing to sell their babies for less than £1,000.
I don’t care how many times I read these stories, the shock of it never goes away. This is pure evil. Some of the Nigerian traffickers are making upwards of £6,000 per week selling children. The fact that there are traffickers selling up to 500 children per year means there is a willing market on the other end. It sickens me.

Cynch… I want to make sure I understand your comment. Are you saying that the real evil is that the women gave birth to the child in the first place?
