Children Underground - part7

During the Ceauçescu-era contraception and abortions were forbidden and so thousands of unwished children were born. After the fall of Ceauçescu's dictatorship many of them ran away from the orphanges or their parent's home to escape the cruelty what happened to them in these places...

They live in the underground stations or in abandoned houses, they live in small groups with strong hierarchies, they copy what they have experienced in their life among adults, their lifes are dominated by violence, drugs and the daily struggle to survive in a hostage world, which offers them barely changes to escape it.

So the f**ker never beat the kid but he once chained him to the radiator. He's the spittin' image of sincerity

I'm so sorry if no one listened to this boy or payed attention to his pain. He's probably a young man now. I wish that I could give him and other children like him homes where they are SAFE.

And the Father what the fuck like. Who ties a child by the neck to a radiator? I can see why he left home id do the same if i was a child. I also thats the Father trying to play nice Guy to the Camera so i can only imagine what goes on behind closed doors when he has his drink on him.

The Woman on the train is retarded. No child needs to be hit in anyway shape or form. Just teach them to have good morals. Words like Compassion, gratitude, emphaty, kindness is a good way to start. Poor kid and all the others that iv seen through out this documentery. People think they have it bad in life. Look at this and be gratefull for your sittuation.

@Konto1min It's not any less "normal" than it is in any other part of the world. But I think there's a completely different reason why the woman said that to Mihai.

Seems like it's normal to beat their children in Romania. Is it?

4:20, I have experience with this shit. That Mom is lying out of her ass. When the children have looks of fear on their faces and are enveloped in complete silence, and not one of them is asking questions about their brother, and their mother is trying to plead her case, 9 times out of 10 the children are living in complete fear of the mother or father or possibly even both.

:44 why is she making him feel so guilt?! No child just leaves their home for a spanking. Clearly this young child sacrificed everything he knew because he strongly felt anything was better than home!

@Krissmesna I am against beatings but I am now against parents rase their children, in whatever way they like

[Elifbathajeable]

@Krissmesna I do not know what repulsive is supposed to mean from your perspective towards me, so you might as well rest your case. /peace 

[Krissmesna]

@Elifbathajeable some children need to get spanked, not to get a chain tied to their neck, if you simply don't know what repulsive means then i rest my case

[Elifbathajeable]

@Krissmesna and whats that supossed to mean `??
