I. Introduction
In a country of nearly 90,000,000 people, an estimated 40% of the Filipino population is below the poverty level. An estimated 2 million children roam the streets of the Philippines on a daily basis. 75% of these children are considered children on the streets (meaning they work and play there, but still have families to return to and are sometimes educated), while 25% are considered children of the streets (meaning they live there, with no place to call home). Approximately 10% of these children of the streets have no family ties and no one to care for them. Children that are the product of such statistics are often neglected, abused, abandoned and sometimes orphaned due to the extreme conditions in some areas. Other problems that result from such environments include drug use (such as inhalants, marijuana and shabu), widespread illnesses sometimes resulting in death, injuries, sexual exploitation and even imprisonment. Children as young as 10 years old have been imprisoned for offenses as minor as vagrancy. They are placed in cells with the general adult population and are subsequently abused and exploited. Roughly 60,000 street children are working as prostitutes.

    There were some limitations that were placed upon his research since the diverse nature of the city makes it quit difficult to reside exclusively with his research group thus forcing him to reside in four different locations. In order for him to gather informant, a list was created of all the different street occupations in which the child street laborers were engaged in on a PENNAT database along with distinguishing between part-time or full-time workers. Many of his data gathering consisted of participant observation, tape- recorded semi- structured interviews, peer relations, and pure observation. Through these different techniques, the author was able to get a grasp on the practical economics of child street labor, along with confirming the truth of the children’s response to many of his questions concerning their labor intensities. The author’s true ethical consideration throughout his research was to represent the lives of the child street laborers as being more than children who “got the short end of the stick” in life, but to allow them to be listened to, to observe how they really work to make a living in a life that things are not always given to…

Trafficking in persons, the illegal practice of procuring human beings for unpaid work in physically abusive settings, has reached large scales lately, with figures such as 1.2 million children annually being transported from poverty-stricken countries to wealthier nations.
