More about the #unmarriedMothers "#unwanted #babies" home.

«#Women of all ages, [..], turned up with #babies in their arms. They were often in tears, sometimes accompanied by ashen-faced parents or nervous friends to hand over their children to the nuns.

“It was heartbreaking,” Jennifer told me. “I broke down crying, especially for the #girls with their parents, who were brought to the door and physically made to hand over the #baby.”»
