Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children. The commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC), “a type of sexual abuse in which children are sexually exploited for money, power or status,” is a widespread global issue with far-reaching mental health consequences for survivors (Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, 2015). CSEC includes trafficking for prostitution, sex tourism, early marriage, pornography, stripping and “survival sex,” or the exchange of sexual activity for basic necessities (Xxxxxxxxx 2015). In the United States, children are sold through a variety of online sources, such as Craigslist and Backpage (Xxxxx, 2008). In 2016 alone, there were at least 10,506 minors being trafficked for commercial sex (Swaner, Labriola, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, 2016). There are several individual, family, and community-level factors that can put children at higher risk for being victims of CSEC, including sexual orientation and/or gender identity, lack of family support, and neighborhood violence. Traffickers and pimps use a variety of strategies to lure children into prostitution; many of which relate to the minor’s dependency on them (Xxxxxxxx, 2007). According to one survivor, “pimps might create a sense of ownership by giving victims new identities and supplying fake identification” (Hotaling, Xxxxxx, & Xxxxxxx, 2006, p. 185). Victims might not willingly admit that they are being trafficked, instead denying they have traffickers and claiming that they are helping their “boyfriends” (Xxxxxx & Xxxx, 2005). The relationship between CSEC victims and traffickers continue as a result of trauma laced with intense loyalty and attachment, which occur in the presence of danger and deception (Xxxxxx, 1997).
