Thank you gentlemen, for taking the time to respond to huffnpuffs article.We have been denouncing the perpetrators and trying to get these matters heard in court.The court of NSW keeps delaying the cases.
I don't think libel cases will ensue as most of the sorry animals who did these things are dead.Most have made good lives for ourselves,some unfortunately have been unable to.I know of one lady,a model citizen, who has the most horrific nightmares.Nearly every night she is fighting off her abusers,screaming out"get off me,leave me alone".This abuse occured 50 years ago.She IS undergoing counselling.
The supervisors in those institutions were the ones,in most cases,perpetrating the abuse.The govt were supervising the supervisors,therfore they are the ones to be held accountable.
I am not taking legal action because i own my home.If i were to lose,i would be up for govt costs.This i cannot afford.Class actions cannot be taken until the statute of limitations is overturned.Once this occurs their could be a deluge.
If your children had been abused and you found out,even many years down the track,wouldn't you use whatever means available to seek justice?This fight is for the the people who have been unable to "get on with life".
Because of past abuse,some parents have been unable to have normal relationships with their children.In some cases feeling dirty if the kids climbed upon their knee.In some cases being far to strict and running their houses along the lines of an institution.If you haven't had a "normal childhood"you don't know how to deal with "normal life".
What happened to some in those places has affected later generations also.By normal,i mean not being sexually abused or having your bones broken by people you were entrusted to.We were little children who should have been cared for,NOT abused.

hi forgotten australians , the truth will come out when this is the question , two goverment bodies have not the heart to admitt the truth , and deny to act , for our justice , as of the homes i mentioned , daruk boys home was also spelt , dharruk training centre , of which is now the john moroney correctional centre at windsor n.s.w. , as for justice and to continue to fight for justice ,i already lost my childrens home fighting for justice and still im fighting , we ,are not going to be political pawns that the goverment can wipe their hands of any more , enough is enough , , you can not tell me that their is only i hear at times , a lot of people are reading this ,,though they seem not to want to say anything other , than those who have already , spoke , col rouge still awaitng your response , i lost all my home fighting ,for the right of law , so i guess if i didn;t say anything and started the truth , i would still have our home , as for class action suits , daruk boys home had two class action while my case was in proces , and as ,under silence , this i find out after my court case , so all the time i had been pursing justice their was class action going on with the goverment in ,silence where these people will no longer be able to be wittness, daruk was an ilegal tyre dumping ground of which the goverment was making prohit from slavery , ,also under the 1939 welfare act no goverment bodies or party or person can gain prohit from , a breach of the law , and the commonwealth constitution ,and the welfare act , kind regards micheal
