Nowadays there aren't really that many orphanages, as they have been replaced by foster homes, where children have a better chance at being adopted, not to mention better supervision by the state government. The basic philosophy of an orphanage is the care of children whose parents have died, also known as orphans. Because of the structure and environment and the multitude of children orphanages were notorious for having, it seemed like a jail or prison for kids, except the children are not there for punitive reasons. But often times orphanages are underfunded and therefore do not provide all of the amenities they should for children they care for, hence the incarcerated environment.
