Another aspect to this is mindset. How do you condition a group of people to do this to children? Well, it's simple - commodity dehumanization. The mindset that children = people = herd. It's conservation management. If you believe the earth is overpopulated, then something must be done. Just like managed game reserves, your 50,000.00 tag to kill an elephant allows them to raise 5 more elephants. It's the same with kids - "sure, I'm paying 5,000.00 (or whatever the number is) to wail away on a minority child, then kill them after, but look at all the good the money is doing!" (going to child rescue, adoption, feed the kids stuff)

I know it's hard for us to wrap our minds around a concept like that, but I think it is the honest-to-God truth.
