Synopsis
High child mortality rates and a lack of burial records marked mother and baby homes in Ireland, as revealed by a government inquiry.
Synopsis
In Ireland, mothers recount their experiences in mother and baby homes run by religious orders. These institutions faced a government inquiry that revealed neglect, high child mortality rates, and missing burial records. Many mothers describe the shame associated with having children outside of marriage and their long efforts to reunite with their children, whom they believe were illegally adopted. Adoptees share their struggles to access birth records, further complicating their search for identity.
