Foster Care - America

[michealjohnedmondson]

(cont) nothing more and nothing less. I would say to other kids who going through that type of hell is to realize your self- worth. and the only way to heal is too forgive and if you can, just try to have at least a lil LOVE for them. despite of how they treated you.

*10 YEAR EXPERIENCE*

[michealjohnedmondson]

I was in F.C from the age of 10 till 21. SHIT wasnt sweet or gravy. One home I was in for 5 years emotionally and psychologically abused me and the other kids that I was with. Its krazy what you will see adults say or do to kids. But now that I look back on that particular situation I realize those people had some serious issues big time. Now I do my best to forgive and know that they are just people too. (cont)

It is truly sad that the conversation on this page turned derogatory towards a sexual preference when it is supposed to be about the Foster Care System. I must say it makes me sad to hear that ppl had bad experiences in the system. My husband was in the system for 10 yrs, was with an amazing family whom we still are very close with. We have also become foster parents to enrich the lives of children who have had a rough start and possibly adopt kids who are unable to go back with birth parents

[PLANBMUSICVIDEOS]

Look no child should be adopted out or fostered out unless they have no living relatives. And. Any gay or lesbian who says mean things to me is a perfect example of their poor character and proof they are unfit to parent because they are hurting our children who are irepairably hurt by the cruelty inflicted on their moms by hateful perverts who think children are goods they can purchase .

This is @ PLANBMUSICVIDEOS in response to his/her comment about my post. I do not live under a rock. I live in a house with my FAMILY: my partner, and our 3 children. 1 is a former foster child 1 is adopted. Our FAMILY has another former foster daughter. She returned to her mother and began her addiction right by her addicted mother. She worked hard to get clean. We give ALL children who enter our home-LOVE and SUPPORT- they ALL HAVE THRIVED. You just sound ignorant-know the facts!

[BigShane1216]

Judging the whole foster care on very few instances is a horribly ignorant thing to do. When you work in the Social Work field, and you get to see first hand the cruelty inflicted to our children, you may have a different outlook on keeping a child in a home versus putting them in foster care. People only like to portray the negatives about issues, it would be nice if you watched all the videos to the contrary.

I was taken from a good home when I was 4 and put into a severely abusive foster home. My family was punished for being poor. & kids were put in foster homes. ^ were abused.Mine was severe.

[MONIQUEIJ]

@ursheepawake this happen to me in my siblings too, it sucks

[chutubeme]

@ursheepawake,thats what happened to my step bros and it makes me sad !!

[mayo1103]

@ursheepawake I am sorry that happened to you, their are a few nice foster parents out there. I am sorry you didnt get one, you deserved too!

[PLANBMUSICVIDEOS]

Rosie O'Donnel is a horrible fat lesbian who is involved in child trafficking by homosexuals who kidnap children from innocent, good parents and place them in foster care where they are DRUGGED with multiple psyche meds, adopted out to sodomites who RAPE them. Don't fall for this propaganda. The REAL abusers are the homosexuals who need to all be thrown in jail and throw away the keys!

[mayo1103]

Get a life. GLBT parents can be great foster and adoptive parents. There is no need to exclude them from being foster parents. The "REAL abusers" as you call them are the bio parents who have abused and neglected their children and the caring foster parents - Homo- or Hetero- sexual that pick up the pieces.

[PLANBMUSICVIDEOS]

You piece of sh*t !!! STOP CYBERSTALKING ME! Homos are sodomizing children, falsely accusing good parents to steal their kids! What rock did you climb out from under? There will be a war about this issue very soon.

[PLANBMUSICVIDEOS]

@mayo1103 I know you will make a derogatory comment about my typing errors but it is because I am learning how to use my new iPad and the voice recognition feature. But at least zip have a heads up on the new technology!

[mayo1103]

@PLANBMUSICVIDEOS you are ignorant, judges have to grant approval for psych meds now when a child is in care. Get a clue and know the facts before you post.

[PLANBMUSICVIDEOS]

@mayo1103 My son is in fostercare for over 10 years now and is on 5 different psyche meds. YOU are the clueless ignorant one. It is the filthy psychiatrist and social worker who decides and the corrupt judge simply rubber stamps it. BTW I works in a civil rights law firm too so don't write another stupid word. You are a pathetic example of the dumbing down of America.

[PLANBMUSICVIDEOS]

@mayo1103 oh I see now your evil agenda! You are a sick lesbian who steals children and trafficks in foster kids. Very soon your little evil lifestyle will come to an end. My son will sge out soon and you will be prosecuted for your crimes! My son was imprisoned for over 10 years but NEVER turned against me, his REAL mother. You are just a wannabe Fostercare hag who speaks for little ones who are drugged and abused by witches like you. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid!

Check out part one of my short film called FostercareLESS.

[VanGoghsEar1890]

Like I said before, where are all these so called pro-lifers after the child is out of the womb?

[mamabearl]

@VanGoghsEar1890

So is it better to tell these children that they would have been better off dead? I agree that it is not fair to these children But the majority of women who give their BABIES up for adoption at birth give them to families who will love them The children in foster care are born to selfish people who do not think of the what is best for the child The adults are irresponsible and are to blame and be punished which means more of us need to step up and help instead of complaining.

foster care has proven a complete failure...we should do small, tightly monitored group homes like they do in Japan...it is successful there. Kids integrated into a regular school with a stable home and bed they come home to...regular meals and parental visits. Barring that, bring back privately run orphanages, at least they provide stability, health care, regular food and warm beds. Obviously a child needs more than that, but the foster care system doesn't even offer those basics sometimes.
