What the fuck is wrong with that continent?

Your first idea is to put innocent minors in jail, and the second is to just make them homeless???

Even the middle ages had orphanages, or at least churches.

The Catholic Church still does have orphanages like they did in the middle ages. But nowhere near enough for all the kids.

I would never give a child to the Catholic Church. Not with their track record.

The Catholic Church is less likely to harm a child than the streets or foster system, which is so rife with abuse the Simpsons did a whole episode about it.

And it is a low bar indeed to be as trustworthy with children as the... catholic church...
