how -- - can I go to a foster home??
im 13 and I need to live somewere else. life at home is getting so bad. its xmas and my mothers boyfriends son get more expensive presents than me? I did not get anything much. I’ve started smoking because of stress at home. I get shouted at a lot and smacked and I cry every day now. im wondering can I take myself to a foster home and were is the local one near swindon or devizes??
Listen kid if not getting expensive gifts for Christmas is the worst thing that ever happens to you you’ll be doing alright.I mean really life isn’t that bad for you to want to go to a foster home.Think about the fact that some kids dont have parents. My dad died when I was 10 my mother was addicted to drugs and was in and out of mine and my little sisters life.My grandparents raised me & my sister for the most part and there old fashion so they was super strict.I used to think my life was bad. But now that im grown up and I see all the kids that don’t have anyone to love them. that have no choice but to be sitting in a foster home at Christmas. Not only didn’t get expensive gifts but didnt get any at all thats sad.When you grow up and look back on things your going to feel stupid and petty none of thats stuff is important as long as they put a roof over your head and dont abuse you then your are alright.
Just start looking at the big picture in life,thats selfish for you to say you want to go to a foster home when theres children out there that have to be in one!
if you want to talk to someone and not let your mom know right then you could talk to a counceler at school. They will eventually send someone to inspect the property and if they think it is bad living conditions, your abused, or something like that then the will place you in a tempary home. your mom or her boyfriend husband might get taken to jail for questioning. I dont know if they will ask you if you want to go live with your mom after she “gets better.” Stop smoking and dont harm yourself. You could end up in trouble for doing that. It will be a long battle for this you have to really want to get out. My aunt was a foster parent and had a case like this and she ended up adopting the child.
Sweetie, just because you didn’t barely get any presents doesn’t mean you aren’t loved if your mom has a new husband then she is excited about the other child, and dont smoke, smoking is a horrible way to take your stress out, so is cutting and burning and any other harmfull thing. If life is that bad at home, call child services and explain your situation, and if you afraid of your mom finding out then use your portable if you have one, sneak it into your room, shut your door and call them, if all goes well then once your mom gets the bill you will be out of there and she cant smack you for calling them. But I am going to warn you, foster homes can be worse than your own home, I have a friend who got thrown into a foster home once and they treated her worse than your situation. So be careful and think carefully before you do something like this you may end up wishing you stayed home.
okay first off,, dont thinkk its all bad because you dont get good presents or someone gets better,, you could be getting none at all.
same happens with me and im okay with it..
second,, be above the influence no matter what its better fer yew!!
and third if its really that bad try and talk to a child abuse place
good luck :)
just call child services. dont get mad that you dont get many presents, I dont get any. and smoking is bad, take your stress of by doing something else
its not about the presents ffs
im scared of calling incase my mum will flip out please help … x :(
