If you were Jewish, gypsy or considered a traitor to Hitler it didn't matter if you were a baby or a teenager. They were treated cruelly and it was a mass genocide (over 6 million Jews and one can only guess how many others that were considered traitors). The Germans put these poor Jews on trains (they thought they were just going to a concentration camp) but, they actually were going to gas chambers. The Germans would have the Jews believe they were going in for a shower to be "deloused" and that's when they'd let them have the cyanide pellets and the poor people did not die easily. Anne Frank was a teenager and her sister was killed (Anne actually saw her sister in one of the mass trenches used as mass graves) and later Anne died, turned in by one of her own kind.
