No child should grow up like this: UNSW launches report into institutional care

Cheryl Polock​ was just 4½ years old when her mother dropped her and her siblings on the doorstep of Dalwood Children's Home in Seaforth and simply walked away.
"I remember just being left at the door," Ms Polock, now 72, recalled. "My mother left without really saying anything. We were just abandoned. I didn't see much of my parents after that."
