It is really interesting how they did that and I truly wonder if it was always a good place for the children or is they were just wanted for doing work on the farms or homes, etc. I have read the previous book to this series and it was really, really an amazing book. I know I want to read this one, simply because I want to see how things continue!
ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about orphan care in the US, which is why I would love to read this book so I could learn more! I don't know of any orphan stories in my family either.
ReplyDeleteI don't know much about the historic care of orphans in the US. I think in the past many more 'orphans' were cared for by other family members. I know my own grandmother was raised by her own grandmother when her mother dies shortly after she was born. Her Father just wasn't capable/able to care for her I guess.

ReplyDeleteCorrection to my earlier post *...I don't know anything about the care of orphans in the US .
ReplyDeleteI only know about the historical orphan care from what I have read in books. Some were good, some not so good. I think that is the same today. Maybe a little more high tech today. No orphan story from my family past.

ReplyDeleteI really don't know much about the care of them, except for what I have read in historical fiction books. As for now, I feel like I know even less. There is foster care, but I am not sure what else is done. I feel like it is something that can always use to have more light shed on it!
ReplyDeleteI know the basics that I was taught in middle/high school and thats all. I know that many of the kids died from hunger and dieseases sadly.
