There ought to be a better way.
Where there is forced birth and heirarchies of shame,
the suffering doesn’t end with the first cry.

Little is told of the many young kids that rode trains
during the depression years here in America and would make stops where if anyone wanted free household help in exchange to give an child an bed and food was often
commenced across our land also. So was born the days of
the "Hobo" era..king of the Road...as the song so aptly says it. Ireland though in it's day saw such starvation...I have an book around here of newspaper articles and letters of history....it tells of children
eating grass in the fields and then their dead mother
for want of food....All because higher politicans never cared about the astrosity thier people were going through, of felt hopeless to change circumstances. Thank God the day CAtholics were allowed birth control...and men went into Paternity suits to support children they brought into the world
by way of sex. Now you know why women must have equal rights also to raise their families if others do not help them...that includes decent wages and compensation. Helping them should not include "death"
as the answer.

For so many spirits who had no voice but tears, we
must do as you say.

So sad, but one cannot judge these people, I don't think we can hold them
to the same standards of todays world.
The horror of the potato famine was beyond our understanding. The babies
being born to unwed mothers were just as undernourished as the young
girls who bore them.
People are shocked to read of this horror story, but I don't believe that the
Irish didn't care, they were fighting for their own survival, combine that with
the domination of the church, and woeful uneducated ignorance
of the goings on behind those grey walls.
Well done, to the researcher and writer of this article; so many things that
have been "buried" are now being revealed, like some Karmic plan?

Am just a bit stunned after reading it,
796 children listed as dead, how many
more unnamed.
