'Compulsive' foster mother axed
The foster mother, who cannot be named because it would identify the children, says she's still stunned by the reason given. According to social workers, she'd become "greedy" for as many disabled children as possible, revelling in the fact that others saw her as a "superwoman" who could take on any burden, and using the children to fend off "feelings of worthlessness".
Officially, she'd become a "compulsive caregiver".
Note: There's a new one on me.
the more you take on the less you have to give each child so I would have to say maybe she needs to know her limitations but not be cut off completely.
