What have been some of the long-term effects of Aboriginal children being taken from their families?
Polly2601
Some indigenous children that were taken from their families had been violated, sometimes brutally. Many victims were sexually abused, and some welfare officials neglected their duty in caring for victims. Some of the stolen children never found their parents or family members and most of them still are distraught from the treatment they got as children.
When the aboriginal children were forcibly taken from their families, this directly led to a loss of culture, language, customs and traditions among the Aborigines. When the Europeans first came to Australia, there were around 250 different aboriginal languages in Australia. There is just a fraction of that number now. Many stories from the aboriginal Dreaming (creation legends) have disappeared forever.
