Now, as I don't want to fall victim to Gell-Mann Amnesia, I am well aware this article can be wildly mistaken, however:
http://news.trust.org/item/20181114025819-qqbtx/Millions of children around the world live in orphanages, but child rights experts say most are not orphans.
Orphanages have become a lucrative business in developing countries, attracting generous funding. This has led to the trafficking of children to fill them, according to charities Forget Me Not and Lumos.
So the desire to help the less fortunate leads to the exploitation of children
to make them less fortunate.
Reminds me that I need to ensure where my donations are going and who will be administering the aid. Not everyone who is "For the Children!" is doing it for the children. Many are in it for themselves.
Making sure you are helping the situation and not just tossing cash at it to make yourself feel better* is a difficult task.
*See: WIC, Welfare, Foreign Aid, giving to beggars, etc...
