N2  - Reports that there are 800,000 children below the age of 16 serving as prostitutes in Thailand and approximately 200,000 of these children are under the age of twelve. Estimates that 20% of these children will end up with AIDS. Relates these realities to several mental health and theological questions. Argues that God will become real for these children only if sensitive human participation takes place. Proposes that pastoral caregivers can play a crucial role in the confrontation and the resolution of this tragedy.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
