Orphanages

In the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) area, orphanages and residential treatment facilities can be found in various locations, including Dallas, Fort Worth, and surrounding suburbs. Notable organizations such as the Texas Baptist Children's Home and the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Dallas provide services for children in need. Additionally, many faith-based and nonprofit organizations operate group homes and transitional living programs across the region. For specific addresses and details, it’s best to consult local resources or online directories.

The first African American orphanage in Saint Louis was the "Home for the Friendless," established in 1850. Initially intended for white children, it later expanded to serve African American children following the Civil War. The institution played a crucial role in providing care and support to orphaned African American children during a time of significant social and economic challenges.

The movie you're referring to is likely "Annie." In this adaptation, a young girl named Annie is abandoned by her parents and later taken to an orphanage run by the strict Miss Hannigan. Although she has a dog named Sandy, her journey includes finding love and family outside the orphanage. The story is based on the comic strip "Little Orphan Annie."

Charlie Chaplin was sent to an orphanage on November 26, 1896, when he was just seven years old. His mother, Hannah, struggled with mental health issues and was unable to care for him and his brother, Sydney. The orphanage, known as the Lambeth Workhouse, was a difficult environment, but it played a significant role in shaping Chaplin's later career and his understanding of hardship and poverty.

In 1942, Birmingham, Alabama, had several orphanages serving children in need, although the exact number is not definitively documented. Historical records indicate that institutions like the Alabama Baptist Children's Home and the Samuel H. Kress Foundation's home were operational during that time. The total number of orphanages could vary as some may have operated under different names or merged with other facilities. For precise figures, local historical archives or records from that period would be the best resources.

Yes, Sophie does return to the orphanage in "The BFG" by Roald Dahl. After her adventures with the Big Friendly Giant, she is taken back to the orphanage by the BFG, where she is reunited with the other children. However, she no longer feels the same about her life there, having experienced the wonders of the giant's world. Ultimately, her journey transforms her perspective on life and belonging.

The 80s movie you're thinking of is likely "Annie," which was released in 1982. It tells the story of a young girl named Annie, who lives in an orphanage and dreams of finding her parents. She eventually gets the chance to stay with a wealthy man named Oliver Warbucks, leading to a series of adventures and heartfelt moments. The film is based on the Broadway musical of the same name.

As a child, Tom Riddle liked to hurt the other children at the orphanage through use of his magic - even if he didn't know what it was yet. Later, when he became Lord Voldemort, he continued to hurt people he thought beneath him just like the muggle children at his orphanage.

Atheism isn't a belief system - there aren't regular meetings for atheists! - so you won't see hospitals or orphanages called "The Atheist Hospital", but many leading humanitarians have been or are atheists and the oldest hospital in the USA was founded by a secular government.

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.

Molly, Pepper, Duffy, July, Tessie, and Kate. Molly is the littlest one and Pepper is the somewhat mean one.

The closest thing to that category would be Boys Town. the founder was, and I believe this is clearly identified in the film, Father Flanagan, a Catholic Priest. The Padre was originally an Army Chaplain in World War I. Unless I am mistaken, the priestly role was retained in the movie- the lead character was not, say a businessman or banker. A somewhat similar film dealing with a rather rosy picture of Youth-House life bore the very unusual title Johnny Holiday- made in late forties. Lead character was a police sergeant who was a youth counselor at , well, a youth house- played by Wallace Beery, I think.

Orphans

Gee, thats quite an unusual and strange question, i must say!!

But many children/babies go to orphanages because its too difficult for the parent(s) to have a baby (they cant afford it, was an accident ect.)

Orphanages have children and have to pay for everything themselves, bills, schooling... children cant work so theres no support coming from the children either financially. They are not given enough money by governments as well sometimes.

I must say i admire orphanages quite a lot!

Of coarse the wealth of an orphanage all depends on which country it is in, some are poorer and some are richer than others.

I simply used common sense here... hope i helped! :)

The movie "The Orphanage" is a thriller about a woman who returns to her childhood home, a seaside orphanage, with her family and unknowingly unleash a long-forgotten evil spirit.

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.
