Foster care
For the past 4 or 5 years I have not been getting along with my parents at all. My dad is extremely verbally and emotionally abusive and has hit me a few times. I know I’m not the perfect child and I do make mistakes. I have a lot of trouble and school and have been in trouble with the law a little bit putting me on probation. I was kicked out of my house for a few months and was in a group home and I didn’t really like it. I was a little happier then at home but at the same time I didn’t like it cause it was just to strict and I didn’t feel as if I was getting a fair chance at life because I couldn’t hang out with friends and do things like normal teenagers do. I ended up coming back home and have been home for about a year now. I have tried really hard to make things better with my parents , but it never is and lately I’ve been really tired of them. I love them so much , but I’m not at all happy here. I’ve been thinking a lot about going to another group home , but I honestly don’t want to just because I can’t do anything like have a computer , have a cell phone , see friends or anything like that. I have also been thinking about foster care , but I’m really scared to do that cause what if I don’t get along with my foster parents or what if their really strict and I can’t do anything. I’m 15 almost 16 and I’m just wondering if I should suck it up til I’m 18 or try and get into foster care. Also If anyone has been in foster care could you share your expeirence with me and what it was like.
Well, I know you’ve got it rough, but think of it this way. It could always be worse. You could have no one. No one at all. Not even a group home. Be happy you have parents. And if your dad does abuse you (in both ways) then talk to an other adult, possibly at school. All I can say is try your best, even if you try and things don’t get better, they will sooner or later ^-^. Be happy with what you have. Its more then some people ever get. And as for a foster home, if its what you feel is best then sure, but I would want to try and stick it out with my parents. Maybe if you show some effort they will too.
I hope I can help, and even if I can’t I’m glad you shared your problem ^-^ Good luck!
