On Oprah today

[t8rs]

I've never had a desire to watch Oprah, but I just might tune in today:

"Suburban Teens: The New Prostitutes"

I actually had the rare chance to watch the whole show. It was very unpleasant to know what the 3 young person went through... and the youngest one was 12 when she started.

All I can say is, they indeed, as Miss O pointed out, are the very lucky ones, who had the chance, the courage, the family to turn back to .

The little 13 yr old , especially, really saddened me. She is still so bright and innocent looking, full of energy. I sincerely wish them , and their families, the best.

Thanks for your post, t8rs.

You're welcome, Berlin.

It was disturbing but they did put the focus squarely on the girls who got out of the trap to hopefully help others do the same. I wonder just how many are still caught in it. I don't think they mentioned any statistics.

Maybe they wanted to avoid going in different directions, which they could have easily, but there was also no mention whatsoever of the root cause - the demand. These are clearly underage girls, so who are the deviants that solicit them? That is even more sickening.
