Vatican sends Italian children born out to wedlock to America as orphans

She said "I placed you, because I couldn't keep you at that point in time because of the family situation. But I never consented to the adoption or to the fact that you would leave Italy and you would be far from me for the rest of my life. Piero Davi was one of thousands of children born out of wedlock that the Vatican repackaged as orphans. The church arranged the visas, helped by a 1950 U.S. law that broadened the definition of orphan to include a child with one parent, but one who couldn't provide care.

This reddit thread and the article/book are r-slurred and designed to generate a circlejerk. To be clear these were not babies taken out of nowhere, these were children growing up in orphanages sent abroad to families with the resources and desire to adopt. Somehow that's a bad thing?

Laurino told us the program hinged on a consent form the mothers were supposed to sign severing all rights to the child.

"Yes I signed the consent form but I had no idea when they were adopted abroad I wouldn't see them!"

!Catholics new libelous book just dropped, redditors circle the wagons to spew invective.

Traditional lying by omission and formulation Journoid, btw

Maria Laurino, a third generation Italian-American, grew up in North Jersey.[1] She graduated from Georgetown University and received her graduate degree in English literature from New York University

Her first memoir, Were You Always an Italian?, was a national bestseller and explored the issue of ethnic identity among Italian-Americans.[4] Her second memoir, Old World Daughter, New World Mother, examined the pull and tug the author experienced between Old World traditions that valued familial dependence and a New World feminism that prized female autonomy. In 2014, she published The Italian Americans: A History, chronicling the Italian-American experience from 1860 to the present day (companion book to the PBS series of the same name).

100% chance this b-word speaks broken italian with an r-slured anglo accent

Laurino is married to Anthony Shorris, a civil servant who served as First Deputy Mayor of New York City and Executive Director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. They have one son and live in New York City

That explains a lot about Italian Americans honestly.
