Best Answer

If you're asking about Oliver Twist from Charles Dickens' novel by the same name... Oliver is punished in the orphanage for asking for more food to eat. Already starving like all of the orphans, he "doesn't know any better." And who would when they're young and hungry.

What is the person who is in charge of an orphange called?

I don't think there is a specific title these days and the name "orphanage" is itself usually not used, being replaced with "Children's Home" etc. Centuries ago it may have been more formalized. In Charles Dickens' classic book Oliver Twist, the orphanage was run by a superintendent (Mrs. Mann), but a "Beadle" (Mr. Bumble) oversaw the operation. A Beadle was a parish constable of the Anglican Church, often charged with duties of charity like overseeing the parish the parish orphanage and workhouse.
