Isn't that what the film "Them" is about? Based on the story of some kids who killed a couple for fun?

Stop looking up google. It ain't smart or funny. "Them" is a.k.a "Ils".

Yeah that documentary was very sad. Beeb 4 I think it was on. The kids are just treated like shit, they aren't fed properly and not helped with their various problems. Some are blind, some deaf, some autistic etc.

Watched it when it was first shown a couple of months back (see the documentary thread). Very powerful film. Who'd a thunk there are still such pockets of inhumanity in modern Europe?
It was very sad to see the mildly autistic girl descend into a vegetative state without proper nurturing-never mind the babies who were chewing their own fingers off.
Chilling.

Yeah I have a couple of gaffs near one of these kids' homes. Terrible for the ol' appreciation, I can tell you. They didn't put that in the brochure. Thank you very much, Polaris World!

oops, i missed it in the docu thread - but i did see after when i was looking at news updates on the doc's website that it had originally been shown a few months prior. in general the stories were really sad but yes, seeing DiDi descend into that rocking back and forth mode, cradling the false hope her mother would come and get her was awful. and little Stoyan who would stay motionless if the carer stopped leading him through the room - and Vasky - oh my god. couldnt believe she was 18. luckily, it seems that the cogs have begun turning in favour of teh children's wellbeing since the documentary first aired - at least judging by the website anyway. There's now UNICEF and medical involvement at least.
