Interview with a Female Child Soldier

I found this heartbreaking video on Youtube and had to post it. As a girl, I can relate much more to a female point of view and am interested in the unique problems that girls face in this atrocity. So far, I haven't been able to find that much information on girl soldiers, even though they make up forty percent of the kids in these armies. I think this is because not as many females are physically fighting. A lot of them serve as sex slaves. Personally, I find being a sex slave to be just as emotionally scarring as combat, but girl soldiers still don't get the media attention they deserve.
