I also found the fact that gifts and letters the parents would send to their children were never delivered. They were told either, their parents died, or they simply didn't care about them anymore. Which of course was not the case. These kids had a miserable life. When the children died, they were dumped in the back of the schools. They didn't get the grave site or the funeral they deserved. Their bodies were just dumped off. Most of them, the ones who were put through this torture, are not alive today. However there are some survivors.
Here are a few survivor stories:
