It doesn't look like people come to thiis part of the message boards very often but I just need to vent so here I go. Maybe someone will read it.

I aged out of foster care almost 10 years ago and I'm still sensitive about people knowing that I was a foster kid. I go through phases where I'm ok with the fact that people are aware I was in foster care and then there are times when I don't want people to know I was in foster care.

Well someone I have been acquainted with for many years thinks it is her duty to tell people that I was in foster care behind my back. She use to tell me all the time. "It's your story and you tell who you want." Well That was a bunch of crap because she took it on herself to make sure everyone I knew I was a former foster care kid. She frickin called my employer and told them. My boss came up to me and said. "I hear you were a foster kid and so and so told me" she told him she was my fmom too. That's a lie too. I stayed with her after I graduated off and on and worked for her. But she was never my mom and needs to stop telling people that. I plan on talking with her once I get over being angry.

Has anyone else had experiences like this and what did you do?
