Far too many parents face tough decisions. Should I sell my daughter as a child bride? Should I sacrifice one of my daughters for the sake of my other children?

And we ask ourselves, why are 1 in 130 women and girls living in modern slavery? A recent report, Stacked Odds from Walk Free Foundation says, from birth to age two less value is placed in girls than boys. Boys inherit family assets, are believed to have more earning potential, and will look after parents in old age. Preference for boys drives female infanticide and contributes to the 130 million missing women and girls in the world. This gender imbalance fuels bride trafficking.

The same report says, of all girls ages three years old to 12 in the world today, 15 million will never go to school. This increases the risk of slavery and child marriage.
