Nearly 800 infant remains found, irish home for unwed mothers - Lilith7 - 18-06-2025

Good grief. The way those girls were treated was shameful.

An enquiry into the Mother & baby homes in Ireland found that  about 9,000 babies died, mainly from resoiratory problems & stomach flu.

This scandal has been going on for years, as time goes by there are more and more revelations about the atrocities committed there as more information turns up.
