Foster mother Saskia (55) took in the baby of a drug addict mother: “He now functions like a toddler in the body of an adult”

Every two days a baby under the age of one is taken from an unsafe home situation. This also happened to the foster son of Saskia Clinckemaillie (55). “As a baby, he had to spend five weeks in hospital for rehab because his mother was seriously addicted,” she says. The drug addict woman gave birth to five other babies. Meanwhile, Saskia’s foster son is 18 years old, but he has the mind of a 2.5 year old child. “He will never be able to live alone. The need for guidance will always be there.”
