IAN HENSCHKE: The old Goodwood orphanage is at the centre of a number of child abuse complaints dating back the 1940s. The Catholic Church has recognised this with a counselling and compensation program for former residents. But now, as Simon Royal reports, some of those people say far from helping them, the program has left them confused and hurt.SUE
O'ROURKE FORMER GOODWOOD ORPHANAGE RESIDENT: It still feels like a big
mean red brick building to me. There was no peace or any mental
stability at all as a child from the abuse suffered. DOROTHY
BROWN, FORMER GOODWOOD ORPHANAGE RESIDENT: I was on edge all the time,
scared because I never knew what the next day would bring.
