allow us to hope that there is a way of salvation for children who have died without baptism

LOL.........you didn't realize this is just an opinion bordering on "wishful thinking"?

You would do well looking at Council of Trent, Florence, and other catechisms on "definitive teachings" on this instead of leaning on "wishing thinking".

You have no clue what was pronounced in the Councils above as well as constant teachings of the Church.

Since you won't back up your contention with a citation from any of them, I am forced to conclude that you don't, for sure.

Lurkers: There is no definitive teaching of the Catholic Church regarding the fate of the souls of unbaptized infants!

If there is definitive teaching, why does the Catechism engage in "wishful thinking"? Doesn't speak well for the catechism.
