Friday Video

Friends - I'll get back to posting about the Simpson family happenings next week, but I wanted to give the time this week on the blog to devote itself to something serious - child sex trafficking. As you know from my previous post, tomorrow starts my participation in the campaign to Tread on Trafficking. I'm excited to begin the campaign, and I am very dedicated to authentically carrying out the commitments I have made to myself and others. This topic of child sex slavery is one that has plauged my mind for several years. Once you know what's going on, it's nearly impossible to erase from your mind the awareness of what is happening to so many innocent children and young people. For many, the issue of child sex slavery and human trafficking is one that you don't know much about, and it may be difficult to take in the information. As a parent of young children, it can sometimes even be intollerable to think about because inevitably you imagine the horror if something like that actually happened to my child. But here's the point I want to leave with anyone who reads this blog (yes, all three of you), those kids are someone's child. They want a life, someone to care for them, and a childhood just like my children want.

So, please take a few monents and view the videos below - especially those of you who may not know too much about the issue of child sex slavery and human trafficking. I think you'll be glad you did. Thanks for taking the time out to read and watch something that is near and dear to my heart. Happy Friday!

This first two videos are from Love 146, who is sponsoring Tread of Trafficking. The third video is a look at what one group in CA is doing in response to the domestic issue of sex slavery.
