I'm fascinated with many historical periods but I'm grateful for the times I live in.

Incredibly sad for the parents. How horrific, how could someone do that to innocent babies?

@EDMproductions its a booming business in India. Especially if your born a female. Over 90 million female babies killed ( Source United Nations)... and these were LIVE babies, NOT aborted. Check out youtube docos on this horrifying practice that still continues in India today. Indians don't kill Males, only Female infants.

Maybe we should re-introduce such shock-tactics today! Send teenagers to such a museum and show them what can happen.But then I guess young people are just too 'street-wise' now & probably wouldn't give a stuff! Bloody good educational too though!

Horrific. Mrs. Dyer was enough by herself (she was one of about four baby farmer murderer cases from the Victorian and Edwardian periods). W. S. Gilbert (who was a barrester as well as dramatist, satyrist, poet, and theater director, must have roused his audiences in H. M. S. Pinafore, when he makes Little Buttercup a "Baby Farmer" who activities screw up two characters.
