I think huffnpuff is trying to say that their is an article called "forgotten australians" and he is concerned because no-one has posted on that,other than himself.I know because i opened the article on the request of huffnpuff,as he had problems doing so.If you can find the time,have a look at it and maybe you will understand why he is so upset.
Just a thought.Keep em coming people,makes interesting reading.The more people to have their say on this topic,the more our stories are being heard.The more our stories are being heard the more chance of the government finally doing something.

Hi, my name is Wilma Robb.

To all who have posted comments on this site, those that have seen what this story was about and for the ones that only seen through their eyes and set minds as to what they wanted to see.

Shame on the small minded Australians.

Blame and shame was thrown back to me and others that read this article and who had been abused and trying to come to terms with it after all these years. We all have a story to tell, good or bad.

For those humans who cannot and will not get their heads around Child Abuse, and accept that we were not born evil. The evil system made some that way.
We as children carried that shame into our adult lives, through people like you who want to attack us as that 'poor me victim ,Get over it attitude'.

There was a documentary on Radio National ABC (Hindsight) today 21/Oct on the Hay girls reunion (March 3-4 March 2007) called "Exposed to Moral Danger".

What a disgrace the danger that we were exposed to was -- a system of Child Welfare Department. The same Department that operates today, Docs.

Next week Hindsight is on Bessy Guthridge in trying to get both Parramatta girls home and Hay girls institutions closed down.

Please take the time to listen or read both transcript to that documentary.
It tells stories from screws, governments of the day, the Hansard record, the girls
This was all ignored,between 1961-74.

Bernie keep up the great enlightenment on our Shameful Australian History.
1974 is not that long ago the ripple is still affective to all generations. There will always be new generations of children,
and always be parents out there that can not cope for one reason or other ,that then affects there children, they are always the unfortunate ones.

Child abuse and damage done to Children will never go away and neither will the life long affects.

Any valid thoughts on both documentary are welcome.
