February 1928 in Nova Scotia, a certain maternity home was opened by William and Lila Young; it was initially called "The Life and Health Sanitarium". It claimed to provide maternity care for local married couples and discreet birthing and placement for unwed mothers. The Home was a center for illegal adoptions across the United States and Canada as the US laws had not legalized adoption across religious backgrounds, leaving many Jewish families without any adoption options.As time went on, the Young's' practices turned out to be increasingly degenerate. They would intentionally starve "unmarketable" children to death by taking care of them just molasses and water. The children they couldn't sell were burned in the Home's furnace or buried in the backyard of the property in a box, hence the name "Butterbox babies". They are also said to have separated and created siblings and twins according to what their customers wanted. In some cases, they even told the local mothers that their child had died so that they could use it for their benefit. A few couples settled up to $10,000 for a child. On occasion, there were as much as 100 children accessible for selection. This atrocity was made possible due to the peril of reformatory mentalities toward ladies, and the threat of controlling the conceptive alternatives for couples who saw the Youngs as a save heaven, completely oblivious to the fact that they were being extorted for monetary gains. My heart goes out to those innocent babies that were killed during the time and those mothers who were told their babies were dead I cannot begin to imagine the pain they must have all felt...
