Teenagers were sometimes selected for manual work at Auschwitz, but younger children often were not. Children born in the camps were generally killed on the spot, especially if the child was Jewish.
Children were especially vulnerable in the era of the Holocaust. The Nazis advocated killing children of "unwanted" or "dangerous" groups in accordance with their ideological views, either as part of the "racial struggle" or as a measure of preventive security. The Germans and their collaborators killed children both for these ideological reasons and in retaliation for real or alleged partisan attacks.
People from various organizations tried to locate living family members. This was a time consuming process. If they had living family members they would be reunited with them and get a new start to live. After the war when the survoirs had made there way out of the death camps many houses were empty and people were leaving. There was much confussion and chaos. I have also heard that children that survived the Nazi death camps would be put for adoption so adults could adopt them.

' ... children that survived the Nazi death camps'. The extermination camps killed all new arrivals within about 24 hours ...
Some were starved, some were gassed, some were shot, some were beaten to death.The Nazi's used whatever method they felt would be efficient.
The 11 million victims (6 million Jews) were starved, shot, buried alive, or burned in large gas ovens. The large amount of burning gave popularity to the name "Holocaust".
Starvation, exhaustion, cyanide gas, killing squads
If the child is too young to work, they were put to death.
If the parents know that their child is in danger, they might move to a different country, or have their child baptised to not be Jewish anymore.
If the child is old enough to work, they will work.
Some children went to a camp called Treblinka.
Treblinka was a popular children's work camp during WWII
A lot of children felt like it was there fault. They had very strong hatred agaisnt the Germans and they were very depressed. But glad that they have escaped.
