The sexual abuse of children is one of the most reprehensible acts that a person can ever commit. Most people, even some criminals, take an extremely dim view towards the perpetrators of such acts, especially if they are parents. However, some parents are so reprehensible that they will actually try to profit from prostituting their own children for personal gain. Money is a typical motivation for this type of behavior; some parents are greedy and pimp out their children for extra spending money or luxuries. If the parent owes some kind of debt, then some parents might be willing to pimp out their child to either earn the money to pay it back or have the debt cleared by letting the creditor sleep with their child. A parent who wants their children to become a star might do so by forcing their child to sleep with people to earn roles. Some parents may pimp out their child as an easy way to get them (and other children they may have) out of poverty. While some parents actively pimp out their own children, some parents are willing to tolerate a known pedophile harming their children if they feel that can benefit from it or that going against the molester will be inconvenient for them. If the molester is someone extremely powerful, a cowardly parent might let their child be molested to protect themselves or gain favor with the molester. A neglectful parent might insist on allowing their children to be molested because they are apathetic or lazy to protect their children. A parent who is dating or married to a pedophile might allow said pedophile to molest their children to avoid being pestered for sex. The identity of the molester might also be a factor in a parent's toleration of molestation. If the pedophile is a teacher, then an Education Mama might either feel that their children's grades are more important than their mental health or see it as an opportunity to get higher grades. Likewise, a Sports Dad may turn a blind eye to a Creepy Gym Coach who they hope can advance the kid's athletic career. If a parent's boss is a pedophile, they might allow their boss to sleep with their child in order to get a promotion and/or a raise. If a parent's lover is a pedophile, a parent might have used their children to convince their partner to get together or keep their partner in their life. Sub-Trope of Abusive Parents. See also Parental Incest and Lecherous Stepparent for examples of parents molesting their own children and Useless Bystander Parent for cases of parents not caring that their kids are being molested. Contrast Wife Husbandry, when a person assumes a paternal role with a view of having sex with (and usually abusing) a child in their care. Unfortunately, this is Truth in Television in some areas, usually where poverty is rampant. As with all Sexual Harassment and Rape Tropes, No Real Life Examples, Please! |

In Resilience this episode's victim was used by her parents to give birth to new children. Her father was an impotent narcissist, and her mother was incapable of giving birth due to complications from a previous pregnancy. It's later revealed they started with a woman, killed her, and hid her body inside their apartment. |

Not Simple has this occur to the protagonist Ian, as he was given up to a pimp as a thirteen-year-old to fuel his mother's drinking habit. Ian was too young to absorb the fact that he was abused this way, but everyone else in his life is righteously furious when they find out. In particular, his sister Kylie, who outright assaulted her boyfriend when she figures out he was Ian's pimp. | |

The Thénardiers in Les Misérables are guilty of this. Their eldest daughter Éponine first meets her unrequited love Marius when she comes to his room bringing a letter from her father begging for money, with a postscript adding "My eldest daughter will await your orders" – clearly implying that in exchange for the money, Marius can do what he likes with her. Fortunately, Marius gives her five francs without acting on that suggestion. | |

Gypsy: Downplayed. Mama Rose Hovick, in a last-ditch effort to launch one of her kids to stardom, signs her daughter up to replace the arrested star of the burlesque and do a striptease act. Louise, while already a young woman, is a sexual innocent who has only ever done cutesy vaudeville dances, and as such is not happy being signed up for this, while Herbie, her agent who holds a torch for her mother, is so disgusted that he leaves Rose for good. Ironically, this enables Louise to become the world-famous Gypsy Rose Lee, getting out from under her mother's thumb for good. | |

Harlots: Justified and deconstructed. Margaret Wells is a brothel madam who employs her own daughters, Charlotte and Lucy, and the first episode sees her auctioning off the latter's virginity. While the show spends a lot of time showing how this negatively affects the sisters, Margaret is framed as brutally pragmatic rather than outright monstrous. In the harsh, intensely misogynist world of 18th-century London, there aren't many employment opportunities for women and marriage puts them at the mercy of a husband who may turn out to be abusive, feckless, or both. Margaret genuinely believes that prostitution is the best option for her daughters because they can make their own money while retaining a degree of freedom. Furthermore, Margaret is dealing with the trauma of being sold to a madam by her own mother when she was a little girl. Margaret initially views herself as a good parent because she didn't abandon her kids and provided for their material needs, but over time she does come to see the faults of her parenting. Her relationship with her daughters is complicated, especially with The Unfavorite Charlotte, but the three of them deeply love each other regardless. Subverted. Elizabeth Harvey operates a molly-house (secret brothel for gay men) where her son Fredo works. However, Fredo is a willing adult and part-owner of the business rather than an exploited child. Because homosexuality is a capital crime in this setting, molly-houses are one of the very few places where gay men can meet each other for romantic/sexual encounters. Elizabeth opens the molly-house specifically so Fredo can have a safe place to express his sexuality and puts herself at great risk to hide his secret. Therefore, she is portrayed as an Open-Minded Parent and Mama Bear, not as an abuser. |

Judge Dee: A number of prostitutes and concubines have "sold off to a brothel in childhood to pay off the family's debts" as their backstory (they rarely seem to hold a grudge against their family as it's usually due to a catastrophe like a famine or floods). Some of them showed enough talent in the arts (singing, dancing, poetry...) so they weren't put into sex work right away but educated into High-Class Call Girls. | |

In Final Fantasy XIV, Yotsuyu was the victim of this at the hands of her abusive stepparents, her aunt and uncle. At an early age, she was married off to a drunkard named Sashihai who physically and sexually abused her in exchange for a dowry. When he died, Yotsuyu's aunt and uncle sold her to a brothel, where she was forced to service men against her will until she was left a Broken Bird. The first thing Yotsuyu's stepparents talk about when they see her again for the first time in years is how much money they could make selling her back into sex slavery. Small wonder that she murders them soon afterward. | |

Blue Eye Samurai The very opening of the first episode has Hachi celebrating just sealing the deal with the parents of two girls he bought from them and will resell later to brothels. This sets him up as the first Asshole Victim of the protagonist. Kinuyo's father sold her to the brothel owner Madam Kaji because she was deaf and mute. Instead, Kaji protected and raised her, promising her that she would never let a man touch her again...until she was kidnapped by a local crime boss to be his mistress. This is how Princess Akemi sees the Arranged Marriage her father is planning with the shogun's son. The actual prostitutes of Kaji's brothel tell her that she's insane and would gladly trade places with her in a heartbeat. |

Yuko Kurose of Boy's Abyss was prostituted by her parents as soon as she turned fourteen. Supposedly, this was done to her because her father had massive debts, and they saw her as an avenue for extra money. This isn't even the first time this has happened; Yuko's mother, to console the girl (and herself), tells her that she was prostituted at a young age by her parents as well. | |

Downplayed in Avengers Academy; Striker was molested by a Hollywood agent helping him get acting roles, and when he told his mother about the abuse, she claimed he was lying. It wasn't until Striker accidentally killed the man while defending himself from his advances with his manifesting powers that his mom apologized and realized he was telling the truth. | |

New Tricks: Revealed to be the crux of the investigation into the murder of young rising tennis star Alice Kemp in "Love Means Nothing in Tennis." As it turns out, her mother Victoria was well aware that Alice's coach had been molesting her for years but enabled it, as she only cared about ensuring Alice became a star so that she could live off her success. When Alice finally had enough of the abuse and made clear she was quitting tennis, Victoria murdered her. Even worse, it's revealed Victoria is now putting Alice's younger sister through the exact same abuse to replace Alice, all for her own benefit. "Wild Justice" features a reluctant version key to the case of the murder of the brilliant child oncologist Doctor Alastair Caldwell. As it turns out, Caldwell was a paedophile who regularly abused patients under his care, however, his wife and superior turned a blind eye due to him being one of the best oncologists in the country whose work was saving hundreds of lives, believing it to be the lesser evil. |

Berserk: The incident that led to Guts's Hates Being Touched mentality was being sold to Donovan, a pedophile soldier, by his adoptive father Gambino, a drunk who blamed Guts for his lover's death (she was already mentally imbalanced from miscarrying when she found Guts birthed from a corpse and adopted him). Guts murdered Donovan, then killed Gambino in self-defense after confronting him before setting off on his own. A preteen Casca was sold to a nobleman by her dirt-poor family ostensibly to serve as a maid, but he tried to rape her before they'd even left the carriage. Fortunately, Griffith was there to rescue her (read: give her a sword and tell her to defend herself). |

KamiKatsu: Working for God in a Godless World: Generations of women in Summanus and Jupiter's family were forced to sell their bodies due to living in extreme poverty, with their elder sister wanting to prostitute Summanus as soon as she turned 11. Jupiter revealing her electric powers and their use as a stimulant for the electronic devices inserted on the back of people's necks led to them being exploited as cult subjects instead, with the elder sister continuing to treat them with contempt even as she got rich and Jupiter started breaking down due to overuse of her powers. After the elder sister is killed by Jupiter, both girls are experimented on and become faith-powered living weapons called "Archons". In the far future, Summanus ironically works as a cartoonist-cultist to gain power and comically makes a teenage girl named Atar into her H-doujin muse without even realizing what she's doing is wrong. | |

Downplayed in Taisho Otome Fairy Tale, when local delinquent Ryo Atsumi's already abusive father sold the sixteen-year-old's virginity to a stranger. He didn't tell her in advance, so Ryo didn't know she was being prostituted until her dad's "guest" was on top of her. Fortunately for the father, Ryo didn't resist for long, her will to remain chaste losing to her desire to put food on the table for her three younger brothers. Unfortunately for him, his eldest son couldn't accept his big sister selling herself, so he pried the man off at the last second and returned his money. | |

With Pearl and Ruby Glowing: Daffy's mother, on top of emotionally abusing him, encouraged his father to molest him so she didn't have to have sex with him. Both the Coachman and Cruella De Vi had no issues with selling their sons to Human Trafficking rings. Ruby Gloom's mother worked for the Ark and pimped Ruby out to the Sheriff. Maleficent is Aurora's biological mother here, and also worked for the Ark, but willingly groomed Aurora into the trafficking ring and sold her virginity at age sixteen. Madame Le Haut pimped out Camille to investors and directors to get her better dancing opportunities; adding insult to injury, Camille doesn't even like dancing. Blitzo's father pimped him and Barbie out for the same Comically Small Bribe amount he rented Blitzo to Paimon for in canon. |

Law & Order: In "Shangri-La", 16-year-old Fiona Reed was hired out as a prostitute by her parents when she was 12 so they would have money to buy drugs. This turns out, however, just to be a cover story to gain sympathy so a family would take her in. In "Smoke" a famous comedian Monty Bender makes a deal with the Mireles family: he will pay the medical bills for their younger son Davey, in exchange for doing what he pleased with their older son, Sammy. When Sammy finds out, he lets his parents have it for pimping him out. |

Carnivà le: In one episode, a man tries to pimp his daughter (who is implied to have Down syndrome) to Ben Hawkins, telling him, "She don't complain". Ben does not stand for it. Stumpy works as a pimp for both of his daughters, Libby and Dora Mae. It's slightly mitigated by them being of legal age, but it doesn’t make the situation less warped. |

Reign of the Seven Spellblades: In a non-monetary example, Ophelia Salvadori was made to be a de facto Breeding Slave for the family's quest to eugenically breed a "perfect" lifeform, which largely consisted of her mother putting her into proximity with a given male donor and letting her succubus pheromones do the rest. By the time she enrolled at Kimberly Magic Academy at age 15, Ophelia had already been pregnant dozens of times (mage gestation being much shorter than Muggles'). | |

Gigi: The title character is a tomboyish young woman being raised to be a "courtesan" for wealthy men by her Aunt Alicia and Madame Alvarez. This is apparently a family business, and Aunt Alicia actually looks down on Gigi's mother for going into acting instead but more because it pays less than because she left Gigi behind. This becomes an issue as her older friend Gaston develops feelings for her after She Is All Grown Up and makes an arrangement for Gigi to be his mistress. However, Gaston realizes the arrangement brings a lot of judgement onto Gigi and, realizing his feelings are too deep to let her go on like that, asks Madame Alvarez to marry Gigi, getting her out of that life. | |

South Park: Played With. In the episode "Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset," Mr. and Mrs. Stotch sell Butters to Paris Hilton so that she can use him as her pet. Considering that Paris Hilton is a massive whore and all of her previous pets killed themselves, the implications are not pretty. While Butters (or, Mr. Biggles) is miserable under Hilton's care, Hilton gets shoved up Mr. Slave's ass before she could do anything too horrible to him. Mr. and Mrs. Stotch still ground Butters since they didn't get the money. | |

A variant of this trope is Isabela's backstory in Dragon Age II. As she explains, her mother converted to a different religion and, when the teenage Isabela refused to convert along with her, she sold the girl into marriage to a brute in exchange for a goat and a few coins. ("Bitch didn't even haggle.") Isabela's husband, in turn, allowed his friends to use her as entertainment whenever they wanted. She only escaped the life when her husband was murdered, and she remains friends with his killer. | |

In the Book of Genesis, Abraham's nephew Lot, who lives in Sodom, is keeping two guests who happen to be angels. When some men of the city surround Lot's house and demand to sexual assault the guests, Lot is so appalled by this violation of Sacred Hospitality that he offers them his own daughters. Fortunately for his daughters, the angels intervene, striking the men blind and guiding Lot and his family out of the city before it is destroyed. | |

Battle Royale: The main reason why Mitsuko believes All Men Are Perverts is because (in the original novel) when she was a child, her mother allowed three men to rape her in exchange for money. In the film this was changed to her allowing one man to attempt to rape her in exchange for money and in the manga this was changed to her doing nothing to stop her new husband from repeatedly molesting her. | |
