In 1974, the Irish State legislated to reduce the minimum age at which a child could be
adopted from six months to six weeks, and also to allow the High Court to dispense with the
natural mother’s consent.
In 1976, the Supreme Court heard a case in which
In an interview, a Chatham woman named Sian shared her heartbreaking reality of being a survivor of the UK's historic forced adoption practices. #adoption #adopteevoices #forcedadoption #justiceforsurvivors https://t.co/nHVyahUEqz
Babies under #ForcedAdoption practices do not qualify for #Tasmania’s redress scheme. A petition to Parliament hopes to change that.

to rebuilding their life and they cannot revisit so live a lie.
Everyone deserves peace. The mother, the child, the family. But for many it remains elusive.
#ForcedAdoption is painful. And crippling. For everyone. There are no winners.

Paul McClarey was taken from his mother at just eighteen days old,. She died at the age of twenty-nine before they could be reunited. Paul carries the trauma that caused him to self medicate on alcohol and drugs.
Forced adoption =victims

The actions of a nun should be investigated for sexual abuse, and a social worker for "baby trading", as part of an upcoming public inquiry into mother and baby institutions, Magdalene Laundries and workhouses in Northern Ireland. #adoption #forcedadoption

Stephen and babies like him were left to die. Judith’s husband who campaigned for Judith and mothers whose babies died, says the apology does not go far enough. Mothers were told by @Keir_Starmer in #StateApology for #ForcedAdoption the shame was not theirs to carry.

We are so pleased for @AdoptionApology, affected mothers and their children - all victims of #ForcedAdoption - that they have now rightly received a long overdue Government apology.
The treatment they received was cruel & abusive.
Babies belong with their birth mothers.
#ForcedAdoption #Netherlands #Apology For decades, unmarried girls and women were forced to give up their newborn children. The impact was profound and persists to this day for the mothers, fathers, relinquished children, and the adoptive families in which they were raised.
The Government of the Netherlands has formally apologized to mothers who were forced to give up their children for adoption between 1956 and 1984. #Netherlands #adoption #adopteevoices #forcedadoption #birthmothers #stolenchildren #justiceforsurvivors

@AnneKearns17 I didn’t get to see it Anne. So many harrowing stories. Most distressing call I received from UK; lady said her mother died + she discovered she had a sibling born in Ireland. The grief of losing mum compounded by a #ForcedAdoption secret she carried to her grave. #Trauma
1/2 Sarah Pochin @SarahForRuncorn spoke on #ForcedAdoption & own experience in @HouseofCommons
“My own mother was pressurised into giving up a baby for adoption, and this was handled by the church. I only found out after her death – she carried her secret to her grave 💔

#RegBarker did not get to meet either his biological mother or father. He said the closest he got to his mother was standing next to her coffin at her funeral.
"My birth mum saw me come into this world. I saw her leave this world."
