by strengthening local child protection system so that families regain confidence to keep their children at home. It is high time that family will is adequately backed by government support in gatekeeping against trafficking and exploitation of children.

The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care. Remove the problem from families, not children. Human Trafficking is an organized crime and it will take each of us to prevent unnecessary family separation.

While we may believe that spending time with children in institutions make them happy and our visits and donations during birthdays and anniversaries may improve their wellbeing, we are also making an unfortunate contribution to the cycle of child institutionalization. Instead of improving their life in care, the vacant spots in the institution left by children who have reached 18 years (and legally forced out of care system to fend for themselves) are filled by more younger children brought from families incapacitated by gross poverty, loss of parent, weakened child protection system and lack of support from concerned local agencies.

The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care. Remove the problem from families, not children. Human Trafficking is an organized crime and it will take each of us to prevent unnecessary family separation.

While short term volunteering with children may appear beneficial, the real question we must all be pondering on is - who is it really benefitting? Is it our resume? or Is it our individual experience? Do we know anything about these children about whom we carelessly post on social media? Do we think twice while making careless promises of coming back? by discouraging short term volunteering at child care homes and orphanages during your travel or for your work experience. The series of forced attachments with inconsistent visitors and volunteers causes severe attachment disorder among children.

The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care. Remove the problem from families, not children. Human Trafficking is an organized crime and it will take each of us to prevent unnecessary family separation.

It is time to caused by prioritizing institutional care instead of reinvigorating our family and community based care system that builds our identity by instilling in us our communal values and culture.

The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care. Remove the problem from families, not children. Human Trafficking is an organized crime and it will take each of us to prevent unnecessary family separation.

Instead of relying on institutional care for better opportunity access to care, education and other services, it is important to make our local government accountable to create better communities for our children. While well intentioned, institutional care should taken as the last resort as an alternative form of care when the care of a child is not possible in their family. With the help of Child Welfare Officer, proper care plan must be designed keeping the best interest of child at the center of the discussion.

The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care. Remove the problem from families, not children.

Knowing there are people back home whom a child longs to be with everyday, a child undergoes various experiences of unsupervised peer influences, care and survival during their stay in an institutional care. In pursuit of providing a life of care, families outweigh and dismiss the distress and sufferings as a natural part of life. In reality, devoid of care, belonging and attention stunts a child not only in physically, but also intellectually and emotionally which has a lifelong impact on the child.

The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care. Create conducive environment for the holistic development of a child by ensuring their right to grow in their own families.

Remove the problem from families, not children. Human Trafficking is an organized crime and it will take each of us to prevent unnecessary family separation.

Growing in an environment with extreme emotional neglect causes severe damage on a child's holistic development. With no consistent and/or qualified caregiver (like a parent) and unmet emotional needs and individualized care, children experience delays in terms of IQ, language, speech and vocabulary. That is the reason why the younger the child enters an orphanage, the more profound the damage to the child’s developing brain.

Remember, a silent child is not always a happy child. A child demonstrating behavioral issues are not innately problematic child. The fight for the right of children to grow in their families continue as we debunk myths on favoring institutional care over family based care.

Remove the problem from families, not children. Human Trafficking is an organized crime and it will take each of us to prevent unnecessary family separation.
