  • The Real Catholic Story of the Mother and Baby Homes and of the Orphanages in Ireland
    The Real Catholic Story of the Mother and Baby Homes and of the Orphanages in Ireland By An Orphan Who Grew Up In One. In 20151, 195,000 babies died from Pertussis2 or Whooping Cough around the world according to official figures of the Atlanta Centre for Disease Control. Worldwide there are 16 million cases3 each year, again according to official figures, while many are treated with simple antibiotics, many die needlessly4. That is an extraordinary fact in itself and there is evidently no cure in sight, so babies will continue to die from this one singular disease around the world and little can be done about it. Millions of other babies died in various wars, in the Workhouses of Europe from different diseases, from starvation, and neglect. We could be asking lots of historical questions about these events, but the main one would be is why, why do we allow children to die. Who is to blame for these untimely deaths, could it be the Governments of the day, the parents, the hospitals or even the nurses, or lack of 1 Centre for Disease Control Atlanta 2 Bacteria that affects the lungs-if left untreated with antibiotics will kill. 3 United Nations Statistics 2016 4 Lack of the very essentials and clean water 1 | Page medicines or Catholic religious sisters, or even poverty and ignorance or is it that nobody universally had been found yet to pin the unavoidable deaths of these poor children onto, to blame in other words. Infant mortality around the world is very high these days in fact the United Nations figure puts the figure at 43 per 10005.

  • Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home (1925–1961) [1]
    Published on The Embryo Project Encyclopedia (https://embryo.asu.edu) Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home (1925–1961) [1] By: Darby, Alexis Keywords: Bon Secours Sisters [2] Catholic Church [3] child abuse [4] Between 1925 and 1961, a Roman Catholic order of nuns called the Bon Secours Sisters operated the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home, or the Home, an institution where unmarried pregnant women gave birth in Tuam, Ireland. Pregnant women who delivered their infants at the Home were required to work at the Home for no less than one year without pay. The Irish government and the Catholic Church endorsed the Mother and Baby Home as a means to limit the number of children born out of wedlock by discouraging women from getting pregnant before marriage. During the Home’s thirty-six years of operation, the nuns reported that almost 800 children died in their care. In 2015, researchers discovered a tomb of 796 infant and child skeletons in a septic tank underneath where the Home once stood. The acceptance and use of Mother and Baby Homes revealed the way Ireland treated pregnant women in the twentieth century. The Bon Secours Sisters were a congregation of Roman Catholic nuns who officially assembled in Paris, France, in 1824. A majority of the Sisters were trained nurses or midwives. The term, bon secours, translated from French, means good will. The Bon Secours Sisters’ original motto was good will to all, and they sought to provide efficient nursing care to the less fortunate, particularly those of low socioeconomic status. In the mid-1800s, the Bon Secours Sisters established convents outside of France in the United Kingdom and the United States.

  • Report of the Inter-Departmental Group on Mother and Baby Homes
    Report of the Inter-Departmental Group on Mother and Baby Homes Department of Children and Youth Affairs July 2014 I. Introduction The Inter Departmental Group was set up in response to revelations and public controversy regarding conditions in Mother and Baby Homes. This controversy originally centred on the high rate of deaths at the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in Tuam, Co. Galway. A local historian, Ms Catherine Corless, sourced details from public records of 796 child deaths, very many of them infants, in this home in the period from 1925 to 1961. There was also considerable anxiety and questions as to the burial arrangements for these infants. Notwithstanding that Tuam was the original focus of this controversy, related issues of death rates, burial arrangements and general conditions have also been raised with regard to Mother and Baby Homes in other locations. Shortly after the Inter-Departmental Group was established, Dáil Eireann passed a motion, following a Government sponsored amendment, on 11th June 2014 as follows: “That Dáil Éireann: acknowledges the need to establish the facts regarding the deaths of almost 800 children at the Bon Secours Sisters institution in Tuam, County Galway between 1925 and 1961, including arrangements for the burial of these children; acknowledges that there is also a need to examine other "mother and baby homes" operational in the State in that era; recognises the plight of the mothers and children who were in these homes as a consequence of the failure of religious institutions, the State,
