Bulgaria's Abandoned Children Treated Worse than Animals
Bulgaria's Abandoned Children Treated "Worse than Animals"

"Bulgaria's Abandoned Children, that was aired on BBC4 last night, contained ninety minutes of undiluted horror," the Daily Telegraph commented a Kate Blewett's film about a social care home for disabled children in Bulgaria.

"Anyone familiar with the Romanian orphanage scandals of the early Nineties will have stared in shocked disbelief that nearly 20 years on precisely the same pattern of appalling cruelty and neglect is being repeated in another former Communist state," says the author Gerard O'Donovan.

"The chief difference is that Bulgaria is already a member of the European Union."

According to the author of the article "it is no exaggeration to say that most domestic animals are treated better than the unfortunate boys and girls from "a social care home" for physically and mentally disabled children in northern Bulgaria.

"At times it was impossible to believe the cynicism of the staff. At others, it was impossible not to turn away from the pain and suffering on display.

Nothing on television this year has brought me closer to tears," he concludes.

I feel sorry for the children and the Bulgarian people who are against such treatment, and who may suffer from the prejudgements made against them. Our whole coutry and all of our people paid for what a few bad people did.

Re: Bulgaria's Abandoned Children Treated Worse than Animals
This is true, unfortunately.
The staff is poorly paid, as a result they don't care, steal and distribute everything valuable from the donations among themselves, children get crumbs from what they should really do and so it goes in a vicious circle.
A strong control and immediate firing of all administration is needed so the matters could be directed in a more positive way.

Ooo I see that some moderators here can't tolerate some crticisim. Edlund was that you that deleted my post? What a mature act. Congratulations...

Let me express myself again. Beign poor doesn't justify the covertion of man to an animal. For God's sake those are your kids that most of the time just need a nice word or two. Is that so much? Get some moral values. Try to believe in someting better than money... Eyvallah! :\

I deleted it because there were many insults to the Bulgarian nation as a whole, including "you sold your soul"... And this is said by a descendant of yanissaries...

Those are mostly kids of gypsies. They might need a nice word or two in your insane mind, but in the real world they need food, a place to live, clothes and other material things.

You again are talking about the deeds of people, who you have never seen, and you generalise them as deeds of a whole nation. And again you exclude the Bulgarian Turks from the Bulgarian nation. Do you remember that some of the people in Bulgaria identify themselves as Turks? Do you consider it possible, that some of the staff of "a social care home" might be Turkish? Do they need moral values, or do they have innate moral values because of their superior race?

We have moral values. Btw, who are you to judge us?!

And I have a suggestion. Why don't you give everything you have to the poor and start living from now on on moral values only? This seems like an obssession to you.

First of all, how do you know if I am descendent of Janissaries? I am not. Turkish raiders used to live close to the borders. I think we are descendents of those. But who knows may be I am even descendent of Kumans or Pecheneks with very mild Bulgarian mix (proto bulgarians- the sons of Han Isperih, not slavs). BTW as you may know janissaries were of Bulgarian, Sirbian or Greek blood... Not Turkish. They were corrupted people. Why? Who knows may be it runs in the genes? Nothing to do with Turks. But I agree it was bad way of enrolling soldiers for Ottoman empire. One the worst mistakes of Ottoman rule. But they did their revenge and helped for the collapse of the empire. So, be with peace with janissaries, probabaly they helped you more than Russians to get your indepedance...

The Turks in Bulgaria are descendents of Ottomans, those who you curse everyday. Muslim Turks are not Bulgarians as you tried to present them. No matter how much you tried to convert us you didn't succeed. You can't deny that.

I agree that many Bulgarian Turks have corrupted moral values, too. This is a result of your socialist past. After all it was the socialist government who banned the religion (closed the mosques), fined, emprisoned, sent to exile the people who practices any Muslim customs. What do you expect?

But you should know that in Islam orphans have very special place. It is repetedly mentioned in Kuran that orphans need to be treated nice and those who steal or comsume their rightous possessions go to Hell. Now you lack that kind of moral obligation...;)
