I have only read a few pages from the hundreds, possibly thousands,of pages from the report commissioned by the Irish government recently about abuses in church-run Irish schools in the past.
Apart from the other abuses and depravities which went on in these institutions, which makes one almost sick to read them, and which is not the subject of this forum, there are many descriptions of the typical, and not so typical, CP that went on in these schools and institutions, like reformatories and orphanages.
Does anyone here have any first-hand, or second-hand, experience or knowledge of these Irish church schools and institutions as regards CP?
