Default 1950's Ireland Single Mothers were Sinners had to give up their child

From a Debate
on Radio 5 live 20mins ago

[Philomena was one of thousands of Irish
women sent to convents in the 1950s and 60s,
taken away from their homes and families
because the Catholic church said single mothers
were moral degenerates
who could not
be allowed to keep their children.]

http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandst...rch-sold-child

Thousands of young single mothers
were sent to a Evil Catholic care home for mothers,
their children
at the age of 3 were then given or sold away to other nations,



The Film from the book
that won a bafta
is now getting more contacting for the records
of single mothers for to find the Mothers


The Last Catholic Care home closed
in 1990
