Child sex tourism

Around the world corrupted men and women sexually exploit children solely as a business move. Most of these prostitutes cannot escape, due to limited access to help and fear of retaliation from their bosses, commonly called “pimps.” These pimps control their constituents’ every move; most of the men, women, and children involved remain in captivity for several years (George 565).
