Oh God do you know what came rushing through my head as soon as I laid eyes on this picture??... us little children oh my god the shoes and everything are the same... just like we use to wear each Sunday... sitting outside the front door waiting to be looked over like cattle in a sale yard... to be pointed out for adoption every Sunday... in Christchurch New Zealand... oh god this is so hard..

Eerie photos from Magdalene Laundries around the world show children eating dinner as nuns watch over them and young women working on heavy equipment.
The images give an insight into life inside the laundries, which were places for women branded 'undesirable' by the church and orphaned children, where untold horrors are said to have taken place.
