    I as abused, as well as others, in a CBS school in munster between 1950 and 1959. The abuse occurred in both primary and secondary schools.

    The schools were run by the chriastian brothers and lay teachers.

    I am still affected by what I experienced and the criminal behaviour experienced by fellow children.

    Based on recent reports of criminality at Blackrock College and other "posh" schools I think it is time to face the truth.

    The decades 1920-c.1985, when corporal punishment was abolished in schools, Ireland was a very dangerous place for all vulnerable people, including children and adults.

    One solution: An independent inquiry carried out by competent foreign experts into every aspect of the educational, health services and other services provided by religious organizations in the period 1920-1990. Ensure that victims are compensated (exclude lawyers expenses).

    Please comment,
