Question: Effects of child prostitution in India Summary: This article mainly brings out the extreme effects of child prostitution in India; which another one of them is the unregulated use of Oxytocin (hormones injected) to hasten young girls who get kidnapped and hasten puberty and pushed into prostitution. The effects are seen thorough out large areas of the country but mostly in Mumbai and some other big states in India; the major effects are the girls health and mental conditions. And also the terrible experience some parents have to go trough when they lose their daughters. Reflection: I think this is a good article that shows the effects on those children who get put into prostitution. Their lives get ruined for ever; they never cover completely and those effects are with them for the rest of their lives. Very serious health effects as well as emotional and psychological. Questions:1. Why can't some of the parents oppose to that crazy tradition of having prostitution as a way of life. 2. Why don't we see that things get better even though there are a lot of people trying and helping to get this critical issue get somehow fixed?
