Do you mean they are just passing through Serbia on their way between western EU countries and Romania or are they actually working in Serbia?
I heard there was a significant Serb population in western Romania. Do you know anything of them?
They stay in Serbia. They are mostly Romanians, not Serbians and they work worst kind of jobs, even makind heavy robberies and murders. Well, like illegal immigration. They work worst kind of jobs that no one in Serbia want, like cleaning cesspools, heavy field works. They are coming in spring, stay over till fall and head back into Romania for winter. Problem with Romanian children goes back. They, are Europe’s most neglected children. During communism, Ceausescu forced women to give birth to children, prohibiting pills and condoms or abortion: “The 1966 decree In 1966, the Ceausescu regime reversed the 1957 decree permitting abortion, and introduced other policies to increase birth rate and fertility rate - including a special tax amounting to between ten and twenty percent on the incomes of men and women who remained childless after the age of twenty-five, whether married or single. Abortion was permitted only in cases where the woman in question was over forty-two, or already the mother of four (later five) children. Mothers of at least five children would be entitled to significant benefits, while mothers of at least ten children were declared heroine mothers receiving a gold medal, a free car, free transportation on trains, etc.; few women ever sought this status, the average Romanian family having two to three children (see Demographics of Romania).[5] Furthermore, a considerable number of women either died or were maimed during clandestine abortions.[6] The government also targeted rising divorce rates and made divorce much more difficult - it was decreed that a marriage could be dissolved only in exceptional cases. By the late 1960s, the population began to swell, accompanied by rising poverty and increased homelessness (street children) in the urban areas. In turn, a new problem was created by uncontrollable child abandonment, which swelled the orphanage population (See Cighid) and facilitated a rampant AIDS epidemic in the late 1980s - created by the regime’s refusal to acknowledge the existence of the disease, and its unwillingness to allow for any HIV test to be carried out.[7]” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolae_Ceau%C5%9Fescu This was baicly good, but there was no leadership of Church in family matters, no guidance of any kind, just give birth to children, and that was it. Also large number of illegitimate children were left at the orphanages, and after collapse of communism they were left to loom troughout country Even today there are gangs of children living in Bucharest’s sewers system. Tragic. And they are member of EU! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2004/09/19/wbuch19.xml
