Thus, I think it’s suitable for the doctor for using his physical strength to make the child open the mouth. Another reason is that the girl deserves the way to open her mouth because she is disobedient to her parents and the doctor.…

When one looks back to the time of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust there are no shortages of shocking facts. Everything about the Third Reich and its modus operandi seem surreal.
