When child soldiers are caught, they are treated as victims of the generals rather than enemies.
Majority of child slaves are voluntary this is because they are afraid they will be killed by them and it is their best option for survival
Children were used because they were easily manipulated and if they didn't co-operate you could abuse them and they cannot defend themselves

child soldiers have been drugged when entering the army, they end up as drug addicts
Between 2008 and 2009, Unicef saved over 24,000 old child soldiers.
There is a simple reason why child soldiers are used, they are easily manipulated and they don't eat much like adults so they are easier to keep alive.
there are estimated 300,000 child soldiers in at least 20 countries in the world today.
