#2> When Dhokne’s friend lent her a smartphone to find work online, she didn’t know how to use it. “I had always used a black-and-white [feature phone],” the 35-year-old told Rest of World.
Incredible to read so vividly about the digital divide. Glad there are organizations geared towards connecting people with more digital tools, lest them and their children get left behind.

#3> She could not meet her clients outside due to movement restrictions in her city Sangli, nor bring them home as she didn’t want her daughter to know she was a sex worker.
It must be wild to have a sex worker as a parent. Maybe I’m getting older but there’s no way that’s a good environment to be raising a kid in.
Like that adam22 guy, no way his daughter will turn out normal. Especially when they were using her for content like his wife breastfeeding her.

It's just a job.
If you're independent, mentally sane, and not blowing your money on drugs, you could actually give a better to life to your kids that 99% of people.
I knew someone who invested enough of the money she made that way so that her daughter would never have to work a single day of her life, and she was like 40yo.

Independent, sane, and drug-free doesn't seem like that high of a bar to me.

Most sex workers I've come across are not drug addled nor mentally unwell. Obviously that's a tiny proportion and not enough to draw solid statistical conclusions from, but at least it's more data than you have.
