Failed to act when seeing a child selling toys

Saw a 7-10 year old girl selling toys in front of a supermarket, felt disgusted and helpless

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had known how to act in that situation"
If I could tell you one thing
"If you see a child in a similar situation, try to find a way to help them safely"
