Turn red light down for kids

Every evening on my way home, I walk down an infamous street - a "red light district", many of my neighbors say - which has been there since the community formed six years ago.
Behind the glass doors in the dozens of shops, with red or pink neon signs of "foot massage and body health care", women mostly aged their 20s, wearing heavy makeup and minimal clothing, await their customers.
The street is located between two big residential areas and many residents walk through it after dinner. The neon-lighted massage shops don't bring them delight but rather embarrassment, anxiety and anger.
