  Roosevelt University - MISJ Psychosocial Themes in the Lives of Children of Survivors and Nazis
Two criteria were used for choosing children of Nazis: (a) having at least one parent who was an active member of the Nazi party during the Third Reich, and (b) not having a parent who was a member of an organization that actively fought against the Nazis.
The 10 children of Nazis were interviewed by a child of a Nazi (Kuphal), and the 10 children of survivors were interviewed by a child of concentration camp survivors (Weissmark).
In a sample of children of Nazis and children of survivors, it is possible to identify common psychosocial themes that appear to be attributable to the impact of the Holocaust.

A big plan of Nazis was to breed a race of Aryan men and women and therefore, liaisons between Norwegian women and German troops were encouraged.

 Amazon.com: Witnesses of War: Children's Lives Under the Nazis: Books: Nicholas Stargardt   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Handicapped German children taken from their families before WWII, girls of all nations raped by marauding soldiers, Jewish children shoved into ghettos: as Stargardt shows in this well-researched and horrific history, the lives of children were ravaged by Hitler's goals and the war he produced.
The moment when children "had to tear off their Hitler Youth badges and throw away their daggers was often particularly bitter and undermined all they had ever been taught about duty, obedience, and honor." The readjustments would be hard, and in many cases never complete.
Many of these children had to take over when parents couldn't: their stories provide a different perspective on the effects of life under the Nazis, and should be added to the chronicles of any serious Holocaust representation.
