I hate to say it, but that might still be a "better life". Just not a better life to any of us. For some underage children, having a job with money is something better than they ever had (migrants or not).

I doubt being a virtual slave is a better life for anyone π I also doubt they are making money, itβs probably being taken from them by the traffickers. And the ones who are forced into prostitution have it even worse π
The 10% of the minors that end up in the homes of unrelated adults or distant relatives would be concerning for sure. I have known several migrant underage children living with siblings that were thrilled to have a job with money to send back home, even underpaid and under the table. If 90% get that, it looks good on paper. What the reality is we can't know unless someone can track down the unaccounted for children. That no one has a record of where those kids went is beyond disturbing.
You have a lot to learn and it won't be easy on your soul. These children are working to pay off their "debt" to get here. In reality, they are intended slaves. If they aren't working in the meat packing plants (illegally), they will be used as sex slaves and then cut up for body parts. It is $150 B industry.
Putin worked to stop it in Ukraine. The industry just moves to a different location. Read this article twice. It's hard to digest:

Yeah we donβt have any idea how many are really living in situations like that π
