Human Trafficking weather it is Illegal adoption or just selling people is the largest growing trade. People don’t usually realize that it is going on because it is over looked or pushed under the rug. There are many people who help in recovering those who are trafficked.

Illegal Adoption usually happens in places with higher population of children like China. The babies involved in the adoption are usually from poor families or orphanages. The babies are usually sold by their parent to an orphanage then by the orphanage to an independent person who will then sell the baby to a couple in the United States. Illegal Adoption usually goes without being noticed because either no one questions the little to no documentation or information of the child’s family or background that is given at the time of adoption. Most parents have no idea they are buying black market babies. There are many movies about Illegal Adoption to prove its awareness A recent one on LMN is Baby for sale and in the movie it goes through the plot of the mother being unable to conceive so they call outside resources to adopt a child from another country and the adoption worker sets a price for money that we would not even believe. After the parents ok the price they will travel to the United States and bring the baby and sell them the baby and they go on with their lives. Sometimes the biological parents of the child has no choice to sell them or they have no idea and the hospital will pretend the baby passed away. It is not fair to the parents of the child or to the child itself, the child will grow up wondering about the parents and the adopted parents would have no idea about the adoption except what was given to them. When adopting a child please look at the d...

  • The Pros And Consequences Of Human Trafficking

    808 Words  | 2 Pages

    As victim count continues to rise, its difficult to see how such great numbers of men, women and children are bought and sold every year. Trafficking can be found in many forms, including: prostitution, slavery, or forced labor (Harf and Lombardi, 2014). It wasn’t until the 1980’s that international human trafficking became globally noticed. With the lack of government intervention and control in several nations, and the free trade market, slavery once again became a profitable industry (Harf and Lombardi, 2014). As previously mentioned, easier movement across nations borders is one of the outcomes of globalization. It is also what makes human trafficking so easy today. It is estimated that about 20.9 million people are victims across the entire globe (United Nations Publications, 2012); trafficking accounts for 32 billion dollars in generated profit globally (Brewer, n.d). 58 percent of all human trafficking was for the purpose of sexual exploitation, and of this 55-60 percent are women (United Nations Publications,

  • Persuasive Essay On International Adoption

    1823 Words  | 4 Pages

    For a mother or father to learn that their adopted child, who they believed was an orphan, actually has a caring and loving family is heartbreaking. Adoptive parents feel guilty. The children yearn for their true home. The biological family feels deceived and desire for their child to return. This situation is far too familiar within intercountry adoption cases. Many children are pulled away from home, put into orphanages, and painted as helpless orphans. The actions perpetrated by adoption agencies reflects an underlying network of corruption and exploitation. This is not for the purpose of discouraging international adoption, but to shed light on the horrific practices taking place behind the scenes. Intercountry adoptions are often tangled

  • The Slave Next Door: Human Trafficking in out Backyard

    1445 Words  | 3 Pages

    Another underrated but a bit more acknowledged type of trafficking is field labor, mostly in southeast Florida where slaves are forced to work in tomato fields and pick them. One of the worst jobs to have on these fields is being a “picker”, with long hours bent over in the southern sun and making little to no money these workers do not have much to look forward to. the only upside to their work is short and scarce lunch breaks and the minimal dirty water breaks they have throughout the day. These workers had no insurance or healthcare so when they got sick they continued to work, a quote from a former picker was “we worked until we were half dead then sent to the hospital”. Farm Labor trafficking is within the same premise as the domestic worker line. The owners of the farm wants to get the product out into the market faster but does not want to have to spend more money to hire workers to do the grueling jobs....

  • Biracial Adoption

    1608 Words  | 4 Pages

    Adoption is the complete and permanent transfer of parental rights and obligations, usually from one set of legal parents to adoptive parents(Ademec 27). Not until the late 19th century did the U.S. legislative body grant legal status to adoptive parents. This is when children and parents started to gain rights and support from the government. Through the years new laws have been passed and amended to keep the system fair to all adoptive parents. In 1994, Congress passed the Multiethnic Placement Act, making it illegal to delay the placement a child to find a racially matching family. In 1996 the Multiethnic Placement Act was amended to say, “One can not use race as a routine consideration in child placement”(Lewin sec.A). Before 1994, it was difficult to place a black child with white adopters. Last year 5,000 children were adopted from Europe, and 6,000 from Asia, while 183 came from Africa.(Lewin sec. A). The number of out-of-country adoptions are so high because of the requirements and regulations one must follow in the U.S. The requirements include being 21, and include being committed and loving. The home income must be adequate enough to support the family. Passing all of the medical exams and filling out the personal information is mandatory. But the main reason people adopt from overseas is because it is much quicker. A person can adopt a child from another country in a matter of months. In the U.S. the wait can exceed 5 years, which is why some people choose international adoption.

    In hindsight, many people have no clue and don’t have the slightest idea that human trafficking is even occurring in the entire world, let alone the United States. It is a shame and a shock that this happens right beneath our noses. Even when we are conscientious about human trafficking, we neglect and ignore it. We try to bypass the thought of this huge crime happening in our own country and fail to realize that it happens everyday. Human trafficking is a serious crime that many people are unaware of; it secretly takes place in the United States; it secretly ruins many lives; it secretly goes by to be never discovered or punished by government officials.

    The “Land of the free” is not so free after all. Human trafficking is the third largest international crime industry after illegal drugs and arms trafficking . Human trafficking is like modern day slavery; it is defined as the loss of freedom to another 's control by force, fraud or coercion. The United States turns out to be the #1 destination for child sex trafficking. I chose this topic because it interested me the most out of all other topics. When finding a topic to do research on, none of the topics left me asking myself so many questions.
