Just had to link to this great post.
To all those who got screwed on the parent front, either royally or in smaller doses, be strong when you can and know you're not alone. We are not our parents, their problems don't have to be ours. Ask for help when you need it, help others when you can, and be good to yourselves. Forgive, remember, and try not to repeat.
A Note To My Fellow Foster Care Alumni ~ To Tell Truth - Please Stand Up
I had to do something! It's hard to describe "what isn't" but I have high hopes. For now thoughts and ideas on parenting, step parenting, marriage, divorce, adoption, death and whatever else I think I may have constructive commentary on. If you have some commentary or thoughts of your own, please feel free to share!

I'm also completely fine with good anonymous comments. I've seen some great ones!

Thank you so much Campbell, the sense of community is so important to us as humans and something missing for us as former foster kids. We must change that. We must make our own family. We must be there for each other. Your support is invaluable.
ReplyDeleteNo Sunday, thank you for being a great role model for other foster and former foster care survivors.
