Bulgarian parents prostitute their children in France
Police in the western French city of Bordeaux have arrested nine Bulgarian parents who prostituted their children, Bulgarian media reported on May 21 2010.
Reportedly, all of them hail from a village near the Bulgarian town of Pazarjik.
A total of 20 boys, aged 12 to 16, "worked" with clients from across France, the report said. The rates were from 150 euro upward. Allegedly, their parents sold the children, took the money and used them to build homes in Bulgaria, French authorities said.
It was also reported that French authorities had been "shocked by the sheer scale of the enterprise".

these people should be tortured.
The parents and "clients" should be thrown in jail and key thrown away.
How dare anyone hurt an innocent child? The law must step in and punish those to the maximum.
No excuse is accepted. I don't care how desperate for money anyone is they have NO RIGHT to hurt children. Children are not posessions.
If they are so desperate for money they can prostitute themselves.
I am so disgusted at politicians. They have the power to make laws harsh enough to stop this. Why won't they? Makes you wonder [...]
Read the full comment if some politicians are involved in this too and that's why they don't do anything to eradicate this evil.
Not only the parents are really very sick in the mind and very greedy, don't forget the people paying for all these under aged kids. They should all be hung by the balls from the highest trees.

Read the full comment fashion.ofcourse underage pros are completely against the law.i can only think that these people are desparate to have cash no matter what the cost and risk involved and that life is considered v cheap by them.
It doesn't matter country or are gypsy or not, sick people are sick. In my country this same happened in well educated family in good economomical situation. Parents sold their three less than 7-years old children to pedophile toys. What makes it even more sick in this new is how many families involved.
