BELGIUM-FRANCE-ADOPTION-RELIGION
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY ALIX RIJCKAERT
Monica Van Langendock displays her birth certificate during an interview in Kontich, Belgium on January 9, 2015. Monica Van Langendock was born "under X" in France in 1965 and abandoned at a Catholic religious institution to be adopted when she was 12 days old. Monica has been looking for her mother but is facing blockage from the authorities. According to Mater Matuta, an assocation which seeks clarifications on mothers who were forced to abandon their children for adoption from 1950 to 1980 in Flanders, some 30,000 children were taken away from their mothers and put in Catholic religious institutions to be offered up for adoption.
