hi i am a fomer foster child now im 23 and live on my own.
i was never adopted. foster care has it pros and cons. on one hand it's good and the other it's bad. the foster care system was made to protect the children. the funny thing is through that when you tell your social worker what is going on they dis turn the other way but they are quik to take you from the only home you ever known. i'm not saying that my mom was a an angle or any thing like that but at the same time neither were most of my foster parnets. the system is there to give kids a safe and stable enviroment. how can they do that when you go from home to home and social worker to social worker? my unger broher and i were taken from my bio mom because of abuse and she did drugs and i was sexaly abuse. the social worker told me and my brother that we where going to a safe place and that the bad guys couldn't get us any more. the funny thing is that the frist fosterhome that we where in i was raped by thire older son. he also raped his 3 year old niece.when my social worker found out all she did was move us to other fosterhome. they didnt even send him to jail. they didn't even get thier license revoked. we went to other foster home that was suppose to be beter in a way it was i dind't get sexaly abuse but me and my unger brother got hit a lot. and come to find out the people lied on their app. so he went to a home and i went to a differnt one. life went on for him and me. when i was 15 i had a babby. my social worker and foster parent kept tell ing me to give her up for adoptin i kept sayiny no then they took her away from me and said that i was and unfit parent the thing is though i never hit her or neglected her ether when we went to crout they kept say all the things that happened to me when i was unger and that i would most likly do the samething to her. my worst fear in life is to be like my bio mom. i fought to the best of my ablity but in the end i lost. Now she lives with my old foster parents and they adopted her. i resient them to a point but at the same time i'm thankful because she in a loving home and she not going through what i went through. the people that was supose to keep me safe and be there for me wheren't they say to trust them but how can you. The thing is that it depends on the person or the child.
