Someone I knew was forced to give up her baby when she was 16. She never got over it. Had a mental breakdown and was sent to a mental health clinic. Many years she attempted suicide around the birthday of her child. She died at 36. Never had other children. Never got over having hers ripped from her. We've all gotten it wrong for thousands of years. Mary was likely 14 -15 when she got pregnant. Back then getting pregnant out of wedlock could get you stoned to death or, at best ostracized, kicked out of your family and a lifetime of begging or prostitution. Joseph knew the baby wasn't his & planned to quietly end their engagement. Luckily an angel appeared to him and he stayed. The message we ignore is that babies are gifts. They belong with their mothers unless thats absolutely not possible.
This happened to my mother in the early 70s here in the USA. My mother was sent to an "Unwed mother home" in Fort Worth, TX, and forced to give my sister up. My mother then dropped out of high school and began using drugs. Absolutely horrible. I got pregnant in high school as well, but my mother let me decide what to do. I kept my son and raised him well. He's now 26 and doing amazing.
The only issue here is for the women who were pressurized to give up their babies. The two adoptees you showed were not maladjusted because they were adopted but because of their own personalities. I was adopted in that period and feel perfectly fine about it for my own sake. My only concern is for any trauma the biological mother (or parents) may have been through.
Thank you for telling this story though I cannot watch it. See, I am one of the children that went through this, and the resulting adoption was bad enough to leave me with PTSD. I will never know who they were.
Sadly , it was a lie that the most loving thing you could do for your child was to give him up. yesterday, somebody told me he was adopted and cruelly treated thereafter. It was not quite as bad for me, but my adoptive mother probably had a personality disorder, while my natural mother, as I later discovered, was gentle and bright. I wasn't aware of the excess deaths, but there was physical neglect between birth and adoption, which our adoptive parents mentioned quite nonchalantly. And for this, we were expected to be grateful.
My birth mother came from Wales to Burnham where there was a big hospital with a mother and baby unit. I have never made contact with her but found out she was Italian and my father Chinese Uighur x
Magdalene laundries ... there is a song by The Chieftains about his. Ireland faced the same situation. Many of the babies from IReland were sent to the US, Canada, and Australia.
I rebelled against the ArchBosh for replacing the Coronation oath of fealty by the Lords with one from the People, which summarily did away with 300 years of Constitution and sought to return us to ecclesiastical feudalism. The 8th Capter of the Gospel of Matthew has much to say about such, and it's not pretty: Chapter 18:8 makes it clear that there is no forgiveness for child abuse, so why does it still exist?
Educate yourself. The men because not married had no paternal rights - which legally still is the case but thankfully not so brutally enforced. NHS doctors and nurses were the driving forces behind the horrible way these young mothers were treated
"There is nothing more inhumane than man's inhumanity toward man."
I beg to differ with one word. Religion.

. . . so cruel and heartbreaking. So wrong on every level. Edit: The people who allowed this to happen should have been jailed.
This has went on in Ireland for years it’s absolutely heartbreaking
I'm an irish adoptee born in the mid 70s. . I back up your comment 100% .
And the laundries… So utterly cruel!
In Canada as well, and in the US, but i think to a lesser degree. The Church was more focused on the Native residential schools over here.
It made me cry, so sad for everybody involved❤
Forced adoption, very sadly, still happens today 😢
Wow - thank God my father 36 married my mum 18. I recently found out he dated my grandmother first!

This happened to me at age 17 in 1988 ,still don't know what happened to my baby 😢
Do DNA and look for your son or daughter... they might be looking for you!
I am so sorry this has happened to you. God bless you ❤
@@AnneVandijck thank you
That recently? 😮
Please post your dna on myheritage. It’s the most common dna test provider in Europe
The church and state - always monster
So, none were Leagally Adopted? Seriously!

So saddd😭😭😭😭

AND ITS HAPPENING TODAY WITH FAMILY BEEN DESTROYED
And where are the fathers of these babies?
The Insight channel here on RUclips has a panel discussion devoted to the fathers of forced adoptions.
Still goes on.
You just know money must have changed hands. It was never about what was best for baby.
Forced adoption still continue. On the base of false allegations LA/SS take many children to the care business. LA serving as adoption agencies.

Forced adoption is still happening here in UK and we need to talk about it ..
Many women have been and are still being pressured by their families to terminate.
Abortion doesn’t allow reunions…😢💔
😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
We can’t always get what we want. Heartbreaking

As usual, the males have no responsibility...
