[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4723817, member: 18222"] I guess The Kennedy Family was not strong enough ... Rosemary (JFK's sister) was rebellious and her father Joe Sr had her committed and a frontal lobotomy performed on her. [HEADING=2][URL='https://www.kqed.org/pop/22432/rosemary-kennedy-the-tragic-story-of-why-jfks-sister-disappeared-from-public-view']Rosemary Kennedy: The Tragic Story of Why JFK's Sister Disappeared from Public View[/URL][/HEADING] Joe Sr. allegedly told his wife it would be best for her not to visit Rosemary so she could get "accustomed" to her new living arrangement. They told everyone else that she was off studying to be a teacher or getting involved in social work. Eunice, the sibling Rosemary was closest to, said that she didn't know where Rosemary was for over a decade. In letters to the family, Joe Sr. kept up a vague facade that Rosemary was "getting along quite happily," never once mentioning the surgery. After 1944, all mentions of Rosemary in family letters stopped. By 1948, John had been elected to the House of Representatives and had aspirations for higher offices. Joe Sr. started to worry about the secret of Rosemary getting out and spoiling things, so he made arrangements to have Rosemary relocated to an institution in Wisconsin, where she would live for the remaining 56 years of her life. He never visited. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1609037987288.png"]322566[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
