two famous lebensborn babies are Marta Kristin aka Judy on lost in space. Her mother was Finnish but her father was a Nazi German soldier. Her mother brought her to a lebensborn home in Norway and she was adopted by an American couple at 2 years old. Frida Lyngstad the red headed singer in ABBA was the daughter of a 19 year old Norweigan woman and a German Nazi soldier that already had a wife and 3 children in Germanyy. he fled Norway when Germany lost the war before Frida was born. she was told he had died going back. she only met him well into adulthood. Fridas mother was considered a collaborator and she and Frida were targeted. they fled to Sweden along with Fridas grandmother. so Frida would not fall victim to her own country.. fridas mother died before she was 2 and she was raised by her grandmother in Torshalla Sweden. she's had quite the life
Frida ( Anni-Frid Lyngstad ) is sometimes demeaned as the most famous child of the Lebensborn program, even though that is completely incorrect as the SS played no role in her conception.
@@missangie5064 People can be cruel. Not just those who create the program. Their treatment of them afterwards is part of that same narrow minded dynamic.
I am puzzled that no person on earth commented on the content of this video! I am a South African 77 year old woman born about 2 years after the war ended. I came to know that Lebensborn babies was also adopted by SAfrican couples. This info was never known or talked about...maybe not to traumatize the children even further! It is so sad what people is capable of to furthering and strengthening ideologies. Shame on the human race ! These children are seniors, some still searching for answers. Show you care !!
I'm in the USA. I'm 55 and have two college degrees, History and Education. I have never heard this story before now. I've studied history from other countries' perspectives too. I hope this video goes viral.
DO U MEAN THAT IT IS BETTER NOT TO TALK ABOUT THIS MATTER AS IT MAY GIVE SOME THE IDEA AGAIN TO REPEAT THIS APPALLING PROGRAM ? SORRI BUT THE TRUTH IS THE TRUTH HOWEVER PAINFUL IT IS
@@cibulis5347 WHOA, there! "...purest race in the world"? "...,LUCKY?" "Purest race?" There is NO "purest race in the world". Unless you are basing this purely on their physical appearance (i.e., blond hair, blue eyes, sharp nose, etc., etc.). Why? Because even the "purest race" will be ridden with liars, thieves, murderers, psychopaths, rapists, pedophiles, bullies, sociopaths, the physically and mentally disabled, serial killers, etc., etc., etc... If your statement of the "purest race" on earth is based on physical appearance alone, then Black people would win this spot, hands down. Hence, therefore, even your "pure race" will suffer the same social damage, (if not more) than any other race on earth, whether they are a mixed raced or not. This "pure race" will have NOT have an ounce more of "luck" than any other of the 8,000,000,000 human beings inhabiting our planet.
I was so happy to find this documentary. When I was a student at the University of North Dakota in the 80’s, I actually wrote a paper about Lebensborns. I did a lot of research about them at the time. This is really the first time since then that I’ve ever come across any information about the Lebensborns. At the time I did my research I wasn’t able to find any information about what happened to any of the children born in these places, so I just learned a lot more by watching this documentary. I was very impressed that a member of ABBA was born in a Lebensborn. Thanks so much for the creators of this documentary.
I do recall that the member of ABBA Frida, was born out of wedlock from a German officer. She found out later in life and ignited believe had met him.She is now a widow Countess who has been through many heartbreaks.
WE ARE NOT LEARNING .. A GENOCIDE BY ANOTHER EVIL DEVELOPED FROM THE EVIL DONE ONTO THEM BUT CALLED ZIONISTISM AND THEIR GENOCIDE ONTO A PEOPLE WHO HAS NO PART OF THEIR HOLOCAUST BUT PAY FULLY FOR IT BY BEING THE INGENIOUS PEOPLE OF THE LAND THEY OF THEY SAY BELONGS TO THEM PER GOD IN THE THE BEGINNING OF THEIR FAITH .. BUT STOLEN AS AN EXCUSE TO USE AS WELL AS THE PITY OF THE HOLOCAUST TO STEAL THIS LAND FROM THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE! SO NOTHING LEARNED BUT HOW TO PPPRESS AMOTHER PEOPLE AND THE REPEAT HAPPENS PURPOSELY!
@@lesterine77 so you don´t think genocide in gaza is in the same lane as the genocide on jew´s in ww2 ? so you can only make genocide on jews not on other people ??
This was heartbreaking! How can I be 63yo and not know about this?! They truly were/are war crime victims. Their lives were forever altered. My prayers go out to them.
I'm 44 & this is the 1st I've ever heard of it. Certainly wasn't anything taught to us in school about it. Seems this era holds a very sad part of history.
That is just sad that the world is to PC To acknowledge history in all its truths.. I have always studied history as a hobby from all angles and it’s not fair to mankind to not educate their children on history and I mean all of it..not just selective ideologies to promote their causes
We are all responsible for our own education. I was not taught about this, however I knew about it from reading different books and watching documentaries.
Over the years of my life I have heard stories of the terrible things that were done to women and children that is enough to give you nightmares for a very long time. The resilience that is shown by these individuals has made quite an impact on me. A lot of these women who left their children were poor and homeless and left their children where they were believing they had a better chance of survival. They were just as much victims as their children were. I hope this is never repeated in the history of humanity ever again. My heart goes out to them.
Im 51. The sickest sadistic stories I've ever heard come from the holocaust. Like mass sadists. How do you do this to other people? All the horrific experiments. How did otherwise "normal" people able to do this and go home to the wife and kids and do the regular family thongs. I just can't wrap my head around it.
@@lorir57280:07 if you beliefe the so called Nazis were the real problem then you must have misunderstood the term Nazi. Most believe it means national-socialists but it mesns Nationa- Zionist!! And the Zionist are still among us and are responsible for child trafficking, wars, and many aweful things more!! You will see ... the history you learned at school is NOT what really happened!! You can actually turn it around a 180 degrees! The truth is coming out one day.
There is a video game called My Child Lebensborn in which you play as the adoptive parent of a Lebensborn child in post-war Norway. You try to raise and guide this child through learning Lebensborn history and ideology, distancing or rejection of biological family, and confusion and trauma caused by the mistreatment and abuse of community members. It is truly heart-wrenching, but a faithful recreation and honoring of the feelings and experiences of Lebensborn children.
@@OliviaHacking-kf7px It develops empathy, unlike those that continued to persecute those children and were prejudiced just because of people’s nationality. That’s more of the same bigotry.
These poor children. They didn’t choose to be born into this regime. They didn’t deserve that kind of hate for the actins of their parents. That’s heartbreaking!
@@Durga695 It is difficult to be happy and create a happy life when you were raised by a disordered and controlling parent, for example a narcissist. Especially when the parent is still going strong. Do you have any guidance for such a situation?
My great grandma Eugenia was Latvian and placed in displaced persons camps. She was not Jewish. She was blonde with blue eyes. She was raped and they took her first born child for this. There was no safe haven birth house for her. So I’m surprised these cases aren’t noted in this documentary.
It’s called “selective breeding “ when it comes to animals. Not sure if that’s what you call it when humans are bred for a superior race. They wanted to take the emotion out of it. A world of human robots with the right DNA, looks, etc. Sounds so mechanical, laboratories, cold and calculating. Don’t forget about the Eugenics movement here in the U.S. The Kellogg cereal family supported this and Henry Ford participated. The U.S. is not so innocent either. Hope those children found so love and happiness with families that loved them. Disgraceful!
Broadly it is termed positive eugenics, which is policy or other actions that seek to perpetuate what is deemed superior human qualities usually through an establish social hierarchy. Here the term racial hygiene is also appropriate, which is a more extreme version of positive eugenics focused on believed/perceived differences between races. Neither has any place in a civil society.
This is why racism is a function of sexism. Its a selective breeding program. This is why female sexuality is strictly controled by law and by socialcodes of behavior.
So sad. So unfair. The babies didn't have a choice. Im sure some of the women didn't either. Being a pregnant unmarried woman at that time. Tell me the neighbors aren't looking at you with side eye
@@denalinde I wondered that too. Just because one had 'Aryan' blood doesn't mean that it wiped away any 'unwanted' genetics. Seems as though 'purity' was only in the eyes of the arrogant beholder.
Sadly it was all too prevalent. My late Grandfather who was a veteran of the Norwegian Army and later fought in the resistance against German occupation had a very hardened attitude toward Germans and that extended to the lebensborn children.
It’s crazy how Norway hated the nazis for the eugenics and occupation while essentially discriminating against innocent children for being German, which is.. basically eugenics. These were innocent babies.
Not only that, but Scandinavia practiced their own version of eugenics during the 60-80's, where undesirable mentally deficient were sterilized. Still practiced in Iceland today, where they claim they're "cured" the problem of babies being born with mental retardation. With what medical advancement? Some "new" technique called abortion. They just kill the undesirable babies.
What about Margaret Sanger that put up all planned parenthood sites in urban communities to preserve her race? She practiced eugenics and was affiliated with the 3rd Rike. The Democratic Party has adopted these practices. The age of Molac from biblical times is back.
When I and my siblings were around 8 or 10, in early 50s, 2 boys were fostered, Leon and Willie. This was in Northern Ireland. We now believe they were orphans from Germany, who were rescued, presumably by the Red Cross.
One of the singers from ABBA - Annie-Frid Lyngstad was born as a result of the Lebensborn program. Her father was an SS soldier stationed in Norway in 1944. She never met or knew him however.
that was Frida the red headed singer. however she did indeed meet her father. his name was Alfred Hasse. she was told his ship sank when he fled back to Germany after Germany lost the war. he never contacted Fridas mother and she thought he died. he never saw Frida be born and already had 3 children and a wife back in Germany. at the height of ABBAs fame , he contacted Frida and they met a couple times till she cut off the relationship.
My mother is Norwegian and when i was growing up, I visited periodically. One of her neighbours was an older woman who was a lebensborn. From what she stated, she and her mother were ostracized in the years immediately after WW2 but gradually some reconciliation began. Hearing her stories was always interesting.
the horrific cruelty by the Germans were exasperated by those other countries by denying these children their identity. But regarding the victims who carry this burden, they need to let go. They should live a good life and not feel ashamed because none of this was their doing. I am also adopted (but a bit later after the war) and I don't know who my father is other than he was a foreign soldier. I feel that I wasn't supposed to be here but I came anyway, so there you all go with feeling bad about my background and circumstances of birth. You should be and are entitled to feel good about who you are!

My birth mother was a part of this program, starting when she was 13. She bore 4 children, 1 son who was conceived by an officer but had brown hair. He was allowed to live. Next, a set of twins who were taken away, and then the war ended. I was born to an American servicemember in America after she immigrated here during the Mennonite sponsorship. She passed at age 32 of uterine hemorrhaging. I can't imagine the horror that poor girl went through.
I'm first generation born here in America on my dad's side. He was originally born in East Germany before my family fled to the West. They became legalized citizens when they entered the United States through Ellis Island. Prior to that, my grandfather was forced to participate in the war for Hitler and thank God became a prisoner of war by the United States. However, my grandmother was left in Germany with four small children. At one point she couldn't even afford to feed them and had to put them in an orphanage for a short time where food was also scarce. My grandparents disagreed with what Hitler was doing so they fled in order to not be killed. My family, like other Germans survived starvation, rape, homelessness, airplane firing, and a gunshot grazed my father's head.... It upsets me to know that Germans have been so hated over the course of the years but not all of them believed in Hitler's actions. They lost friends and neighbors... there are things I found out that have never made the history books. War is absolutely devastating and the children suffer so much. Anytime I feel sorry for myself it is a quick wake up call thinking about what my family went through.... and how many were massacred just for being who they were! I have nothing to complain about....
The main reason why Germans have been so demonized since the war, is political. It actually started during world war 1. Long story, short, when Germany united under Bismarck, some other countries were worried about it becoming to powerful. America was brought into the war against Germany for that reason. However, America and Germany were not natural enemies (a lot of Americans were of German heritage and many Americans wanted to support Germany during the war) so propaganda was created to demonize not just Germany, but Germans as well. This same propaganda continued into world war 2 but also for one more reason. As you know, the far left socialists and far right socialists battled for supremacy in Germany before the war. The far right (Nazis) won. But, as a a result of their loss in the war, the far left socialists took over and in order to win the population over to their side, demonized not just the Nazis, but any sense of national or ethnic pride of the German people, but associating those things only with Nazism. By, breaking down Germans sense of national and ethnic identity and pride (even being embarrassed to be German), they were ripe for being manipulated into accepting an EU. And, by extension, the same thing has happened in the US. In the media (movies, etc.) Germans are always the villains, and are associated with Nazim and nation and ethnic white pride. By demonizing them, they're really demonizing "The West" (traditional, white, Christian, family orientated, conservative people), even though they bear almost no resemblance. Any way, most anti German sentiment and propaganda, is political and can be traced back to these things.
I believe this documentary was shown on PBS, but not on all PBS stations. It was years ago which is why these people don't look like they are in their 80's. They weren't in their 80's when they were interviewed. It is a very thought provoking subject. I first heard of the Lebensborn program at least 35 or 40 years ago, perhaps even in passing years before that.
After watching several of these programs about nazi ideology , i am beyond mere words. That is also why i cant understand the emergence of naziism and certain political aspirations in our country. It is both frightening and confusing to most americans to think it could happen here 😮😮😮
You are dangerously slinging extreme terms like ‘Nazism’ and ‘Facism’ FALSELY around for the very side that is trying to stand AGAINST communism. Educate yourself. Please.
@@hziebartdid you catch the recent rally at Madison Square Garden? Lots of red, black & swastikas. Lots of rhetoric similar to the nazis. How about the 900 page "Project 2025" playbook posted online and authored by people chosen to serve at the highest levels of the US government? Agenda 47?? There is a lot of evidence readily available - no need to struggle to perform a lot more research. I can't wait until the wounded winners lose the phrase "do your research" generally inserted just after demonstrating that they have not. SMH. This is a great documentary and yes it could easily happen in the US. Sinclair Lewis wrote about that decades ago. It happened when cotton was king before the civil war. It happened near the turn of the century when socialism was the bogey man. It happened in the 1920s complete with costumes and marching. It can happen anywhere people are aggrieved and need to create a narrative that X group is responsible then offer a solution involving dominance and cruelty. That includes the US. Easily.
This is very interesting. I get why this is called "disturbing." Considering the heartache and darkness and evil that surrounded it. However, ALL babies are innocent. ALL babies are a blessing. No baby should suffer.
Now they just kidnap all the children they need. How many have been stolen from Ukraine? My heart aches for those children and the parents who lost them. And I wonder what is happening to them.
Where are the Maui children? And now the 300,000 immigrant children that crossed the United States boarder under Biden-Harris boarder Czar administration? We need to know who was involved with Epstein Island organization of enslaved children for SEX This was and is still outrages that we do not know more! 😡 Don’t abandon your questions or dismiss your anger. I pray for all of these victims 💝🙏💝 Don’t believe the lies..
My grandmother is part of this and when I do dna test the last name I was told doesn't connect to anyone. My grandmother is Norwegian,German,from Dillenburg Germany and married a polish man and fled by ship to Canada in early 50s.
Where do you start with this horror, I was born in 1953, while at senior school in the 1960s, I was taught about WW2, the invasion of Counties , deportations of what the Nazis considered racially inferior people, to the death camps, the genocide committed therein the wholesale barbarity towards those who were forced into slave labour, those history lessons left the entire class in tears, every week being shown news reels, of the liberation of the varios hell holes, run by the nazis, is imprinted on my mind . It wasn't until I was in my late 30s that I heard about, the systematic murder of the disabked & mentally impaired, which was a pre-cursor to the Holocaust. A bit latter I heard about the kidnapping of children from occupied Countries the nazis felt could be Germanised, because they met the ideal of the oerfect Aryan, being placed with the right Grrman families to ensure that ,In my 50s I came across an article about nazi policy in encouraging German women to have as many children as possible for the future of nazi conquest of the world, the placement of these children in state run homes to be fed from birth hatred of others not considered worthy. It seems that record's of these horrirs have been released at intervals & piecemeal to the public so even now we are still learning of the madness of the nazis, seeing this documentary has made me realise the phycological harm, stigmatisation, sence of loss if idenity they have suffered throughout their lives, it nakes you really grateful to have known who you are, where you came from & your family history, even if you were brought up in not perfect circumstances, at least you know who you are, these people are still seaching for answers, will they ever know the full story of their beginings & finally find true peace.I hope they find some peace by recording their lives so no one forgets them & their pain, they deserve that recognition. I can understand now why we have been fed nuggets of imformation in bits & pieces throughout the years, its because being given all the facts in one go, would have unhinged our thinking causing a blackout of our minds, so no one would remember, when we all need to & ensure the knowledge is passed on to the next geneation & not forgotten in some filing room or destroyed, word of mouth an oral history is the only way humanity will never forget the horrors of the past, Just a few months shy of being 71 I'm still learning the horrors if the past, the brainwashing of a willing nation by a bunch of psycopathic, sociopathic cadre of men with delusional opinions of people it's still heartbreaking today ,
I am watching this in August 2024. It's making me wonder about the fate of the two small ginger headed babies taken as hostages on October 7th from Israel into Gaza. Have they been sold to a wealthy family to be brought up to hate Israel and the Jews? There are still Nazis, just with a different name. May all our hostages be released and come home. It's been 9 months, what has happened to the poor young women?
@ yehuditcollins6783 Many of the children who were part of the program and are still alive have suffered PTSI - Post traumatic stress injury all their lives. As survivors of the Shoa have, and now the survivors of 7 Oct 2023. the people of Israel, and Jews everywhere, are suffering right now. Sadly the world believes the lies and deception of the propagandists and don’t realise the Ideology of Islam is Nazi just with different outer clothing. We pray the dear little Bibas boys will be rescued along with their mother and all the remaining hostages. Stay strong Yehudit and all Israel - you are not alone. Despite the many from the nations who pour salt on your wounds there are multitudes of Ger around the world who stand with you. Am Yisrael Chai! 🇮🇱
Thank you for putting your comment up. I had heard of the baby houses, but was told that the children were given to the Elite of German peoples, I never thought that they would he given outside Getmany. 🙏
My mother came to England from Austria in 1955/1956 I was born in 1957. I was called a nazi because my mother was Austrian, this carried on from 6years. Children are innocent they are not to blame for what their parents did. You have my love and I wish you well
We great great grandchildren are innocent, we have this issue in Australia 🇦🇺, we are innocent we have done nothing, pushing hate onto those not born does nothing but feed hate…. X
@@GreyAlien11 Life doesn’t stop after birth. It’s not those who are for massacring hundred and thousands of people who have the moral high ground. Nice try though.
Wow! You learn something new all the time. Thank you for sharing this documentary about Lebensborn. Very informative and interesting. Please continue to share such eye-opening documents about history. I hope others see this and learn from our collective history.
the fact that the info got withheld for 60 years from these children is so terrible. Governments still do things like that and withhold other info for 60 years in fields of health and other things.
I had never heard about this house until this video. Ive heard about asian orphanages which made me cry for those poor babies. The more I learn about the human race and how children around the world are treated it sickens me more and more.
To all the children born into this horrific situation, I am truly sorry. With all the love in the world from a mother of 11. If I had been alive at that time, I would have taken everyone of you and bathed you in love and acceptance. Blessings to you all and your families.
None of this was the children’s fault. It’s sickening that the nations did this to these poor children, victims of the Nazi regime as much as Jews, Poles, Czechs, etc were.
Isaiah 49:1-2 The Lord called me before I was born, from my mother’s womb he pronounced my name. He made my mouth a sharp sword, and hid me in the shadow of his hand. He made me into a sharpened arrow, and concealed me in his quiver. No matter how one is born, even in sad circumstances, GOD LOVES YOU AND HAS A PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE!
How can people be so cruel to innocent children? To this day thousands upon thousands of innocent children have to suffer pain or death at the hands of adults. We must protect babies and children!! Speak up for them. They are innocent
So deeply sad and to fathom the abuse they took from the lack of recognizing these children were spawns of evil doers and people had no compassion many anyway for what they suffered.
Poor innocent children with so many questions. Luckily the families that adopted them were kind. This video made me think of the orphans in Romania. I wonder what happened to them after the Cecescus' death and the collapse of the regime. I remember seeing videos of many children in orphanages without human contact and love, rocking and hitting their head on the side of the cradle. I hope they received proper care and are OK today as much as possible. Thanks for excelent and very informative video.
As warped as this program was, I can see a woman rejected by her family and friends going there to give birth going there to give birth. I can also understand a totally destitute woman who’d otherwise die go to a home and consent to be a prostitute for the soldiers in order to survive. At least the men would leave you alone for the time you were pregnant. As for the children, they are innocent. There’s no reason for shame on their parts. If I were one, or had adopted one I’d certainly get myself properly baptized. Who’d want to be baptized into the Nazis or to Hitler? Ugh!
Its a good thing that they specified the " men and women of good origin". I can only imagine that that means people who fit the "good origin" aesthetic.
I can understand what many of these children went through especially the little boy, who is giving away by his mother, so she could marry a man. My mother was a mixed race. Her mother was white and her Birth Father was black. Her birth father was never told she existed. When she was four, her mother wanted to marry a white man who told her that he didn’t want any half bred children so her mother gave her away. My mother learned this at the age of 15 and it was to cause of much pain and sadness in her short life. My mother passed away at 36 never knowing her birth family. I later used dna to find her father who was heartbroken to learn what had happened. He always said had he known would have raised her
This is sad. These kids will now be nearing the end of their lives. There is no shame in being born. You become the person you are, just with some bumps and bruises that leave deep scars.
My heart goes out to all these babies as adults now, to have all this on their shoulders after all these years, remember you are all warriors because you survived. Your original parents should be ashamed of themselves. They didn't deserve you at all. My heart aches for all of you Linda USA may God bless you all.
Also there were children from countries occupied by the Nazis that were kidnapped and re-educated if they were considered Aryan - the vast majority of these kids never returned to their native countries because so many of them were so young when they were taken they would have been taken away from the only parental figures they had any memories of.
May all these innocents find peace ❤ We are ONE humanity and we need to BE more humane. The mother's were trapped in a desperate situation during and after the war. The babies are all miracles and testament to the survival instinct ❤ So much needless trauma.
I first heard of this insanity when I read a novel based on the situation from the point of view of a woman who was an unwed mother who had conceived a child fathered by a Jew who just happened to have red hair, so she knew that the father of her child was in a concentration camp but she didn't dare let anyone know it, and so she dated an SS officer to cover it up, and her child was born in one of these houses because of her situation and her false insistence that the child was a "good aryan". In that story the adult child only found out that whole saga later on after thinking for years that the SS guy in the pictures she found in a box somewhere were her father, and she was writing something on how collaborators could bring themselves to have affairs with these soldiers to survive and get better rations and all of that. Who knows; it might have happened that way for a lot of these people who were just trying to survive, and if so it would be really funny if some of these kids were actually fathered by people who weren't "the chosen"... like infiltrators. Who knows how many of them were just desperate unwed mothers and how many of them were people who truly believed in this disgusting project. I read somewhere that a lot of the children had some deficits in their social development because there were so many children in these places that they didn't get enough individualized attention, as is common in a lot of orphanages that are overcrowded. Supposedly that was the reason some medicos were able to designate them as having mental disturbances or something later on so that they could be thrown in psychiatric care, because they needed an excuse as they had nowhere else to put them; but if they could say that they had some sort of developmental deficit because of the way they were all crammed together in these places without direct relationships to parents a lot of the time so they had less direct nurturing by people who loved them, etc, then perhaps they qualified. I understand that some of the mothers stayed long enough to nurse them for a while and some didn't, and it kind of depended on the situation. All around an awful awful period in history, in so many ways, forso many different groups. (Not saying this is worse than what other people went through;just saying it's pretty insane, all of it.)
They also too Czech children from their parent. They did measurements of their heads, and if the child looked Aryan, they would be adopted by German parents. If they looked too Slavic, they were sent to concentration camps to die.
I knew about these children and I wondered how they fared in their lives. Basically, they were thrown away, discarded, and then blamed for whom they were. They were the most innocent victims of that insane, brutal, Nazi machine.
What a cruel and desperated Time for all of them. Mothers , children etc. But the society is shunning others is unbelievable in a time everyone must be glad the war is ended or was over
My grandfather came to America when he was 9, he was extremely racist, so much so that, he voiced his objection, that he was not happy that my son had brown hair and eyes, and he darker skin, he was not biracial, and one and only one of his grandkids was dark eyed hair and he was darker skinned, most of my cousins were very blond or red hair, extremely pale skinned,
The 2 thunderbolts look like SS for the elite NAZI group. The image is said to be from a rune alphabet before the Roman Empire. It seems as if Hitler wanted to rule a new world order like the Roman Empire. Hitler did capture the altars at Lyons and Pergamum. These had been established for sacrifices towards overcoming the republic and placing Octavian as Csaear Augustus. The Romans were successful. The Germans came very close. When George Bush reintroduced the idea, it gave me the creeps.
Obviously not good but a safe, healthy option for willing women during a horrific time. I don’t blame the women. Germany looked unbeatable at a point🇺🇸
I have read a book about the ss birth houses. Not sure what it was called. It was so sad. What some of the kids had to go through. Completely innocent children went through hell because of where they were born.
I’m American. This lady on a talk show said that she is Polish. Be for real. That doesn’t make you better. Your ancestors were probably Jew killers. And you said that we had slaves. My ancestors were Irish descent. I don’t think that they could have afforded slaves so stop making up things up that aren’t true.My brother said our relatives looked poor and tough. I’m sorry. I like being American. I feel bad for the Lebensborn children being called retarded. That’s derogatory. Let’s end stereotyping and making things up without really looking into what people are really all about.
A baby is innocent. They should never be punished for history beyond their control.
They always are in a system that doesn’t value those already living and have a single-minded agenda.
😢
Oh I know. Babies are a gift. Move forward to present. So much abuse is going on. So many struggling single moms. Asshole boyfriends. Details I read daily break my heart.

Never heard of them.
Frida ( Anni-Frid Lyngstad ) is sometimes demeaned as the most famous child of the Lebensborn program, even though that is completely incorrect as the SS played no role in her conception.

I am puzzled that no person on earth commented on the content of this video! I am a South African 77 year old woman born about 2 years after the war ended. I came to know that Lebensborn babies was also adopted by SAfrican couples. This info was never known or talked about...maybe not to traumatize the children even further! It is so sad what people is capable of to furthering and strengthening ideologies. Shame on the human race ! These children are seniors, some still searching for answers. Show you care !!
Because it's not talked about history can repeat itself.
Well, considering it was uploaded one day before your comment, I'm going to guess that's why😂😂😂

All of these children were victims of war. All innocent children who did not choose to be born. Why do we have to hate? Nothing good comes from hate.
It's so sad the way these children lived. The history of their stories must never be lost or forgotten.

I was so happy to find this documentary. When I was a student at the University of North Dakota in the 80’s, I actually wrote a paper about Lebensborns. I did a lot of research about them at the time. This is really the first time since then that I’ve ever come across any information about the Lebensborns. At the time I did my research I wasn’t able to find any information about what happened to any of the children born in these places, so I just learned a lot more by watching this documentary. I was very impressed that a member of ABBA was born in a Lebensborn. Thanks so much for the creators of this documentary.

@@beckycroll7519Im 30 and just learned this but I’m not surprised
Over the years of my life I have heard stories of the terrible things that were done to women and children that is enough to give you nightmares for a very long time. The resilience that is shown by these individuals has made quite an impact on me. A lot of these women who left their children were poor and homeless and left their children where they were believing they had a better chance of survival. They were just as much victims as their children were. I hope this is never repeated in the history of humanity ever again. My heart goes out to them.
The Lebensborn program truly shows how sick and twisted the Nazis were.
Im 51. The sickest sadistic stories I've ever heard come from the holocaust. Like mass sadists. How do you do this to other people? All the horrific experiments. How did otherwise "normal" people able to do this and go home to the wife and kids and do the regular family thongs. I just can't wrap my head around it.

There is a video game called My Child Lebensborn in which you play as the adoptive parent of a Lebensborn child in post-war Norway. You try to raise and guide this child through learning Lebensborn history and ideology, distancing or rejection of biological family, and confusion and trauma caused by the mistreatment and abuse of community members. It is truly heart-wrenching, but a faithful recreation and honoring of the feelings and experiences of Lebensborn children.

My great grandma Eugenia was Latvian and placed in displaced persons camps. She was not Jewish. She was blonde with blue eyes. She was raped and they took her first born child for this. There was no safe haven birth house for her. So I’m surprised these cases aren’t noted in this documentary.
This is so heartbreaking. Why is this not better known? This was indeed a war crime. I dearly hope that these people find peace.
The one thing I’ve learnt from history, is that we do not learn from history 😢
The secret societies are stll around and continue to protect each other.
It’s called “selective breeding “ when it comes to animals. Not sure if that’s what you call it when humans are bred for a superior race. They wanted to take the emotion out of it. A world of human robots with the right DNA, looks, etc. Sounds so mechanical, laboratories, cold and calculating. Don’t forget about the Eugenics movement here in the U.S. The Kellogg cereal family supported this and Henry Ford participated. The U.S. is not so innocent either. Hope those children found so love and happiness with families that loved them. Disgraceful!
I'm not surprised Kellog is in Cedar Rappids Iowa.
That's because nobody won that war. They took in the nazis and used their advances just under our noses!
Broadly it is termed positive eugenics, which is policy or other actions that seek to perpetuate what is deemed superior human qualities usually through an establish social hierarchy. Here the term racial hygiene is also appropriate, which is a more extreme version of positive eugenics focused on believed/perceived differences between races. Neither has any place in a civil society.
This is why racism is a function of sexism. Its a selective breeding program. This is why female sexuality is strictly controled by law and by socialcodes of behavior.
This ALSO proces, that National Socialism WAS Socialism! The children belonged to the STATE, The Party, NOT the mothers and fathers!😢🤮😡
Six thousand children from Norway was born from the program they were treated unfairly after the war
So sad. So unfair. The babies didn't have a choice. Im sure some of the women didn't either. Being a pregnant unmarried woman at that time. Tell me the neighbors aren't looking at you with side eye
So sad. Horrific.
I’m curious as to what percentage of babies were born that didn’t fit the physical appearance and health criteria that ended up being killed? 😢
@@denalinde I wondered that too. Just because one had 'Aryan' blood doesn't mean that it wiped away any 'unwanted' genetics. Seems as though 'purity' was only in the eyes of the arrogant beholder.
Sadly it was all too prevalent. My late Grandfather who was a veteran of the Norwegian Army and later fought in the resistance against German occupation had a very hardened attitude toward Germans and that extended to the lebensborn children.
So sad that society treated them so barbarically. May their futures be filled with abundant love and hope.
I feel deeply moved by the destinyes of these completely innocent children.
Exactly never blame a baby or child for its parent's choices.
Thats crazy that the children were blamed for the sins of the parents
It’s crazy how Norway hated the nazis for the eugenics and occupation while essentially discriminating against innocent children for being German, which is.. basically eugenics.
These were innocent babies.
Not only that, but Scandinavia practiced their own version of eugenics during the 60-80's, where undesirable mentally deficient were sterilized. Still practiced in Iceland today, where they claim they're "cured" the problem of babies being born with mental retardation. With what medical advancement? Some "new" technique called abortion. They just kill the undesirable babies.
What about Margaret Sanger that put up all planned parenthood sites in urban communities to preserve her race? She practiced eugenics and was affiliated with the 3rd Rike. The Democratic Party has adopted these practices. The age of Molac from biblical times is back.
When I and my siblings were around 8 or 10, in early 50s, 2 boys were fostered, Leon and Willie. This was in Northern Ireland. We now believe they were orphans from Germany, who were rescued, presumably by the Red Cross.
The Red Cross is a leading child trafficking govt program.
According to other people the Red Cross is involved very deeply in the trafficking of children around the world!?
One of the singers from ABBA - Annie-Frid Lyngstad was born as a result of the Lebensborn program. Her father was an SS soldier stationed in Norway in 1944. She never met or knew him however.
that was Frida the red headed singer. however she did indeed meet her father. his name was Alfred Hasse. she was told his ship sank when he fled back to Germany after Germany lost the war. he never contacted Fridas mother and she thought he died. he never saw Frida be born and already had 3 children and a wife back in Germany. at the height of ABBAs fame , he contacted Frida and they met a couple times till she cut off the relationship.
never knew that...thanks.
This happened in the US too. I just finished my book on this and more. I am 73. It took me 50 years to map the story.
My mother is Norwegian and when i was growing up, I visited periodically. One of her neighbours was an older woman who was a lebensborn. From what she stated, she and her mother were ostracized in the years immediately after WW2 but gradually some reconciliation began. Hearing her stories was always interesting.

the horrific cruelty by the Germans were exasperated by those other countries by denying these children their identity. But regarding the victims who carry this burden, they need to let go. They should live a good life and not feel ashamed because none of this was their doing. I am also adopted (but a bit later after the war) and I don't know who my father is other than he was a foreign soldier. I feel that I wasn't supposed to be here but I came anyway, so there you all go with feeling bad about my background and circumstances of birth.

My birth mother was a part of this program, starting when she was 13. She bore 4 children, 1 son who was conceived by an officer but had brown hair. He was allowed to live. Next, a set of twins who were taken away, and then the war ended. I was born to an American servicemember in America after she immigrated here during the Mennonite sponsorship. She passed at age 32 of uterine hemorrhaging. I can't imagine the horror that poor girl went through.
How sad for you!!!
I'm first generation born here in America on my dad's side. He was originally born in East Germany before my family fled to the West. They became legalized citizens when they entered the United States through Ellis Island.
Prior to that, my grandfather was forced to participate in the war for Hitler and thank God became a prisoner of war by the United States. However, my grandmother was left in Germany with four small children. At one point she couldn't even afford to feed them and had to put them in an orphanage for a short time where food was also scarce. My grandparents disagreed with what Hitler was doing so they fled in order to not be killed. My family, like other Germans survived starvation, rape, homelessness, airplane firing, and a gunshot grazed my father's head....
It upsets me to know that Germans have been so hated over the course of the years but not all of them believed in Hitler's actions. They lost friends and neighbors... there are things I found out that have never made the history books. War is absolutely devastating and the children suffer so much. Anytime I feel sorry for myself it is a quick wake up call thinking about what my family went through.... and how many were massacred just for being who they were! I have nothing to complain about....
The main reason why Germans have been so demonized since the war, is political. It actually started during world war 1. Long story, short, when Germany united under Bismarck, some other countries were worried about it becoming to powerful. America was brought into the war against Germany for that reason. However, America and Germany were not natural enemies (a lot of Americans were of German heritage and many Americans wanted to support Germany during the war) so propaganda was created to demonize not just Germany, but Germans as well. This same propaganda continued into world war 2 but also for one more reason. As you know, the far left socialists and far right socialists battled for supremacy in Germany before the war. The far right (Nazis) won. But, as a a result of their loss in the war, the far left socialists took over and in order to win the population over to their side, demonized not just the Nazis, but any sense of national or ethnic pride of the German people, but associating those things only with Nazism. By, breaking down Germans sense of national and ethnic identity and pride (even being embarrassed to be German), they were ripe for being manipulated into accepting an EU. And, by extension, the same thing has happened in the US. In the media (movies, etc.) Germans are always the villains, and are associated with Nazim and nation and ethnic white pride. By demonizing them, they're really demonizing "The West" (traditional, white, Christian, family orientated, conservative people), even though they bear almost no resemblance. Any way, most anti German sentiment and propaganda, is political and can be traced back to these things.
I just want to hug these people. Totally innocent.
That’s got to be a bloody terrible thing to find out isn’t it ?
Beautifully done documentary... and very sad.
I believe this documentary was shown on PBS, but not on all PBS stations. It was years ago which is why these people don't look like they are in their 80's. They weren't in their 80's when they were interviewed. It is a very thought provoking subject. I first heard of the Lebensborn program at least 35 or 40 years ago, perhaps even in passing years before that.
After watching several of these programs about nazi ideology , i am beyond mere words. That is also why i cant understand the emergence of naziism and certain political aspirations in our country. It is both frightening and confusing to most americans to think it could happen here 😮😮😮
How could it happen here?,

@@hziebartdid you catch the recent rally at Madison Square Garden? Lots of red, black & swastikas. Lots of rhetoric similar to the nazis. How about the 900 page "Project 2025" playbook posted online and authored by people chosen to serve at the highest levels of the US government? Agenda 47?? There is a lot of evidence readily available - no need to struggle to perform a lot more research. I can't wait until the wounded winners lose the phrase "do your research" generally inserted just after demonstrating that they have not. SMH. This is a great documentary and yes it could easily happen in the US. Sinclair Lewis wrote about that decades ago. It happened when cotton was king before the civil war. It happened near the turn of the century when socialism was the bogey man. It happened in the 1920s complete with costumes and marching. It can happen anywhere people are aggrieved and need to create a narrative that X group is responsible then offer a solution involving dominance and cruelty. That includes the US. Easily.
This is very interesting. I get why this is called "disturbing." Considering the heartache and darkness and evil that surrounded it. However, ALL babies are innocent. ALL babies are a blessing. No baby should suffer.

My grandmother is part of this and when I do dna test the last name I was told doesn't connect to anyone. My grandmother is Norwegian,German,from Dillenburg Germany and married a polish man and fled by ship to Canada in early 50s.
Where do you start with this horror, I was born in 1953, while at senior school in the 1960s, I was taught about WW2, the invasion of Counties , deportations of what the Nazis considered racially inferior people, to the death camps, the genocide committed therein the wholesale barbarity towards those who were forced into slave labour, those history lessons left the entire class in tears, every week being shown news reels, of the liberation of the varios hell holes, run by the nazis, is imprinted on my mind . It wasn't until I was in my late 30s that I heard about, the systematic murder of the disabked & mentally impaired, which was a pre-cursor to the Holocaust. A bit latter I heard about the kidnapping of children from occupied Countries the nazis felt could be Germanised, because they met the ideal of the oerfect Aryan, being placed with the right Grrman families to ensure that ,In my 50s I came across an article about nazi policy in encouraging German women to have as many children as possible for the future of nazi conquest of the world, the placement of these children in state run homes to be fed from birth hatred of others not considered worthy. It seems that record's of these horrirs have been released at intervals & piecemeal to the public so even now we are still learning of the madness of the nazis, seeing this documentary has made me realise the phycological harm, stigmatisation, sence of loss if idenity they have suffered throughout their lives, it nakes you really grateful to have known who you are, where you came from & your family history, even if you were brought up in not perfect circumstances, at least you know who you are, these people are still seaching for answers, will they ever know the full story of their beginings & finally find true peace.I hope they find some peace by recording their lives so no one forgets them & their pain, they deserve that recognition. I can understand now why we have been fed nuggets of imformation in bits & pieces throughout the years, its because being given all the facts in one go, would have unhinged our thinking causing a blackout of our minds, so no one would remember, when we all need to & ensure the knowledge is passed on to the next geneation & not forgotten in some filing room or destroyed, word of mouth an oral history is the only way humanity will never forget the horrors of the past, Just a few months shy of being 71 I'm still learning the horrors if the past, the brainwashing of a willing nation by a bunch of psycopathic, sociopathic cadre of men with delusional opinions of people it's still heartbreaking today ,
I am watching this in August 2024. It's making me wonder about the fate of the two small ginger headed babies taken as hostages on October 7th from Israel into Gaza.

Very good and important ducumentary! Should be compulsory content in school history classes!
So deeply sad and to fathom the abuse they took from the lack of recognizing these children were spawns of evil doers and people had no compassion many anyway for what they suffered.

This is so shocking and sad that adults can be so cruel to children. Its an unforgiveable crime.
Poor innocent children with so many questions. Luckily the families that adopted them were kind.
This video made me think of the orphans in Romania.
I wonder what happened to them after the Cecescus' death and the collapse of the regime. I remember seeing videos of many children in orphanages without human contact and love, rocking and hitting their head on the side of the cradle.
I hope they received proper care and are OK today as much as possible.
Thanks for excelent and very informative video.
As warped as this program was, I can see a woman rejected by her family and friends going there to give birth going there to give birth. I can also understand a totally destitute woman who’d otherwise die go to a home and consent to be a prostitute for the soldiers in order to survive. At least the men would leave you alone for the time you were pregnant. As for the children, they are innocent. There’s no reason for shame on their parts. If I were one, or had adopted one I’d certainly get myself properly baptized. Who’d want to be baptized into the Nazis or to Hitler? Ugh!
Knowledge is power ❤
One of many of the untruths of the Ayran 'race' was that they were blue eyed blondes....😊
Its a good thing that they specified the " men and women of good origin". I can only imagine that that means people who fit the "good origin" aesthetic.
I can understand what many of these children went through especially the little boy, who is giving away by his mother, so she could marry a man.
My mother was a mixed race. Her mother was white and her Birth Father was black. Her birth father was never told she existed. When she was four, her mother wanted to marry a white man who told her that he didn’t want any half bred children so her mother gave her away. My mother learned this at the age of 15 and it was to cause of much pain and sadness in her short life. My mother passed away at 36 never knowing her birth family. I later used dna to find her father who was heartbroken to learn what had happened. He always said had he known would have raised her
How very sad, what happened to these children. They don't deserve the treatment they received.
This is sad. These kids will now be nearing the end of their lives. There is no shame in being born. You become the person you are, just with some bumps and bruises that leave deep scars.
My heart goes out to all these babies as adults now, to have all this on their shoulders after all these years, remember you are all warriors because you survived. Your original parents should be ashamed of themselves. They didn't deserve you at all. My heart aches for all of you Linda USA may God bless you all.
I can't imagine my granddaughters being called names and shunned, those poor babies
I met one such person in Tulbagh Western Cape. My mother in-law also knew a teacher who was one of those children in Graaff Reinet. South Africa.
Also there were children from countries occupied by the Nazis that were kidnapped and re-educated if they were considered Aryan - the vast majority of these kids never returned to their native countries because so many of them were so young when they were taken they would have been taken away from the only parental figures they had any memories of.
May all these innocents find peace ❤ We are ONE humanity and we need to BE more humane. The mother's were trapped in a desperate situation during and after the war. The babies are all miracles and testament to the survival instinct ❤ So much needless trauma.
I first heard of this insanity when I read a novel based on the situation from the point of view of a woman who was an unwed mother who had conceived a child fathered by a Jew who just happened to have red hair, so she knew that the father of her child was in a concentration camp but she didn't dare let anyone know it, and so she dated an SS officer to cover it up, and her child was born in one of these houses because of her situation and her false insistence that the child was a "good aryan". In that story the adult child only found out that whole saga later on after thinking for years that the SS guy in the pictures she found in a box somewhere were her father, and she was writing something on how collaborators could bring themselves to have affairs with these soldiers to survive and get better rations and all of that. Who knows; it might have happened that way for a lot of these people who were just trying to survive, and if so it would be really funny if some of these kids were actually fathered by people who weren't "the chosen"... like infiltrators. Who knows how many of them were just desperate unwed mothers and how many of them were people who truly believed in this disgusting project. I read somewhere that a lot of the children had some deficits in their social development because there were so many children in these places that they didn't get enough individualized attention, as is common in a lot of orphanages that are overcrowded. Supposedly that was the reason some medicos were able to designate them as having mental disturbances or something later on so that they could be thrown in psychiatric care, because they needed an excuse as they had nowhere else to put them; but if they could say that they had some sort of developmental deficit because of the way they were all crammed together in these places without direct relationships to parents a lot of the time so they had less direct nurturing by people who loved them, etc, then perhaps they qualified. I understand that some of the mothers stayed long enough to nurse them for a while and some didn't, and it kind of depended on the situation. All around an awful awful period in history, in so many ways, forso many different groups. (Not saying this is worse than what other people went through;just saying it's pretty insane, all of it.)
They also too Czech children from their parent. They did measurements of their heads, and if the child looked Aryan, they would be adopted by German parents. If they looked too Slavic, they were sent to concentration camps to die.
Horrifying…
I knew about these children and I wondered how they fared in their lives. Basically, they were thrown away, discarded, and then blamed for whom they were. They were the most innocent victims of that insane, brutal, Nazi machine.
What a cruel and desperated Time for all of them. Mothers , children etc. But the society is shunning others is unbelievable in a time everyone must be glad the war is ended or was over
My grandfather came to America when he was 9, he was extremely racist, so much so that, he voiced his objection, that he was not happy that my son had brown hair and eyes, and he darker skin, he was not biracial, and one and only one of his grandkids was dark eyed hair and he was darker skinned, most of my cousins were very blond or red hair, extremely pale skinned,
It's so " unnatural " to abandon your own child .
It didn't work. We are overwhelmed by the filth of humanity.
That mother didn’t really love her son, abandoned her precious boy for some man?
When my father and mother forsake me then the Lord will take me up. Bible
And placing Children or babies who are not having mental health issues in with ppl who are is criminal.
Wow. I am literally left speechless
Wow I never knew about this. It made me cry 😢 I'm 56, how come I never heard of this
Hitler did a lot a crazy things!
I think himmler came up with the idea,s
I pray someday they all will have peace !
The 2 thunderbolts look like SS for the elite NAZI group. The image is said to be from a rune alphabet before the Roman Empire. It seems as if Hitler wanted to rule a new world order like the Roman Empire. Hitler did capture the altars at Lyons and Pergamum. These had been established for sacrifices towards overcoming the republic and placing Octavian as Csaear Augustus. The Romans were successful. The Germans came very close. When George Bush reintroduced the idea, it gave me the creeps.
Tell the truth! The babies were killed if their eyes weren't blue and if they didn't have blonde hair.
I always wondered what happened to all these babies. I wish they had been told the truth at age 18, but I understand the shame the mothers felt.😢
Obviously not good but a safe, healthy option for willing women during a horrific time. I don’t blame the women. Germany looked unbeatable at a point🇺🇸
So egregiously sad what happened to these innocent children. 😞
Where are the first graduates of the program?
This is a part of the Third Reich I had no idea existed. 😢 Appalling in every sense. I am so sorry 😢😶😩😡
I have read a book about the ss birth houses. Not sure what it was called. It was so sad. What some of the kids had to go through. Completely innocent children went through hell because of where they were born.
So incredibly sad and wrong what was done and still is hidden.
I’m American. This lady on a talk show said that she is Polish. Be for real. That doesn’t make you better. Your ancestors were probably Jew killers. And you said that we had slaves. My ancestors were Irish descent. I don’t think that they could have afforded slaves so stop making up things up that aren’t true.My brother said our relatives looked poor and tough. I’m sorry. I like being American. I feel bad for the Lebensborn children being called retarded. That’s derogatory. Let’s end stereotyping and making things up without really looking into what people are really all about.
Oh come on. They want to be victimized. They didn’t do anything wrong so why do they insist on feeling bad for themselves? Move on.
Way to miss the point of the video. Dude, have some empathy.
Frightening! Seems totally unbelieveable! One always wonders how this mass HENIOUS disaster could have been
