There has been a lot of media and political movement in Brazil to address child prostitution and sexual abuse. It is just a lip service. The prostitution in Brazil will never be resolved as the social problem that creates this activity will never be solved. The middle class does not care to do it and for most is it a great supply for the cheap sexual gratification. It starts in media. Most of the day the television is full of sexually explicit programs showing the women in provocative poses and dances. Even the "children" programs like Xuxa, is showing teenage girls in the sexually provocative clothes, poses and dances. Xuxa, the children entertainer is not exactly a right role-model, being an ex-porno-actress. For that reason she was rejected my the major US TV network. Came back to Brazil, where no one really cares about the example she gives to their children and does her child demoralizing show making good money. In any decent country she would be in jail for inciting child pornography, but here in Brazil, she is a celebrity. Brazil will never get out of the 3-rd world country status, there is just no will to do it. Middle class is just too busy having sex and exploiting poor to care. The poor have no leadership and stay poor. The children continue to be sexually exploited and no political movement will change it, because is is just for appearance without any will to change anything. Parents and family will continue to abuse the children to relieve their frustration and will sell them to anyone to help survive a desperate situation. Most of the Brasilian population live in the extreme misery and desperately wants to survive and selling their kids for the sex trade helps.
