Reunion

• A series of inquiries at both state and Commonwealth level over the last quarter century exposed such “care” as inherently abusive.
• The inquiries also detailed the lengths to which the governing institutions were prepared to go to deny this reality.
• It is this struggle that forms the core of journalist Christine Kenneally’s latest book, Ghosts of the Orphanage.
• A reunion in 1994 provided the opportunity for former residents to share their memories of cruel and sometimes bizarre punishments.
• But they were forced to pursue redress as individuals at a time when the community was disinclined to believe that the church would lie.
• Surrounded by such silences, it is not surprising that rumours of unmarked graves abound among survivor communities, including in Australia.

The promotion of adoption

• The promotion of adoption, particularly in the postwar era, would suggest that the negative aspects of orphanages were not unknown.
• Adoption at birth, it was argued, would prevent children from “languishing” in orphanages when their mothers were forced to surrender them later in life.
• Here Maddison was able to hear the voices of many women whose lives were also shaped, and harmed, by the practice of forced adoption.
• It is a valuable addition to the growing list of adoption memoirs that disrupt the happy-ever-after narrative on which the practice was based.

Voices of survivors

• As the recently opened Australian Orphanage Museum shows us, the legacy of such practices lives on for the survivors, whose adult experiences have been shaped by the disruptions of their childhood.
• We need to continue to listen to the voices of these survivors.
