The Lost Children

The Lost Children

Noble intentions are not good enough.

Long ago, the Australian govt took the children of the aborigines to be adopted by the white.

In the early 1880s and 1967, some 130,000 children were exported from Great Britain. It was a scheme to help the homeless, needy and abandoned children.

Even today, our govt took the children from their families in the name of protection.
The child is held hostage against her will.

British author Sara Benerji wrote about the effect of the most misguided social intervention in Great Britain.

She said, "It worries me that weaker creatures are under the power of stronger ones. Having your own parents is very important, more important than having perfect homes. These children were held hostage and it was just horrible...They had their very identity denied to them"

It reminds me of a tree that falls in the deep forest. How can the world hear of it?
