Bare Cribs

Some of the orphanages have resorted to cribs with no bedding, just plywood. I do understand that with lice and laundering the bedding would be a challenge. A friend recently shared the video above on her blog. There are 47 children in this room and what really struck me was the silence. Although many were awake they were just laying in their cribs without making a peep. I wonder if they've learned that they won't be picked up.




Fortunately I feel assured from the experiences of others that once they realize they have a parent meeting their needs they quickly learn to cry.
It just breaks my heart to see them all laying there quietly. We are coming for you babies!
