[Opinions] Re: The Dionne quintuplets
Yes, that was shameful. And I'm a Canadian!I guess it's a case of, "The past is another country. They do things differently there."The family was poor, and the parents uneducated, I believe, (not to imply that they were stupid), and I suppose they were told that the little girls were to have advantages the parents couldn't supply. And they did have those advantages. But, they were separated from their family. It's a sad story.

I think the creepiest part was how they set up a zoo-like enclosure where people could go watch the girls - but the girls couldn't see them. That freaked me right the heck out. It really is a terrible story.
