Report reveals child abuse in Germany orphanages

Children who were mistreated and abused in child care homes in the Federal Republic of Germany between 1949 and 1975 will be compensated with 120 million Euros, paid for equally by the state, the Laender and the churches. This is the advice of a round table that presented its conclusion after two years of negotiations.
But those who suffered from systematic abuse all the way through their childhood could not hide their disappointment and their anger. They had demanded a onetime payment of 54.000 Euros. The pressure during negotiations was immense. They weren't allowed the advice of lawyers and up to the last day no figures were put on the table.
