I have the <strong>National Human Trafficking Hotline<\/strong> in my phone contacts. It is 888-373-7888.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I have the hotline number in my phone because one day I was shopping in a large thrift store, and caught a strange exchange between a very young mom and a middle-aged man. We were all in the children&#8217;s clothing section of the store. He was making small talk with her and clearly (by the content of their conversation) had not known her before that interaction. He asked her too-familiar questions, and she talked freely, revealing intimate details about her life situation.To this stranger. They ended up leaving the store at the same time, if not together. It was hard to tell. I actually followed them out, but when I got outside they were gone. That fast. Maybe it was nothing&#8230;but that was the day I put the hotline number in my phone&#8230;and I still remember that young mom and pray for her when I do. Now, she may be just fine, raising her baby in the circle of a loving family. I hope so.<\/p>\n<p>This problem is so wrong, the world over.
