Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 22, 2009 Staff Share Posted November 22, 2009 http://www.lovesigns.net/horoscope/amenu/amenu.htm For over 100 years, the orphanage was home to children from poor or broken homes as well as unwanted babies. The orphanage took in many Chinese baby girls born in the year of the tiger - " tiger girls " because of the strong superstitious belief that they would bring bad luck to their families. In 1963, the Mother Superior noted that this practice was stopped as there was a marked change in this supersitious belief. The Home of Abandoned Babies ceased finally in 1983 when the CHIJ Convent was relocated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
