[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting. I was never in foster care, but had rotating foster siblings most of my childhood. Does that make the things I learned not my experience since they were via my foster siblings? For instance, I wasn't the one sent home for a weekend visit who came back with bruises from abuse, but I certainly was there, saw the bruises and emotions of my foster sibling, and watched my mom fight the system to try to keep the kids safe. [/quote] So the watching, and the making-sense of what you saw, and the dawning awareness of what was happening, that has since cemented into a more concrete understanding of the world, was your lived experience. That would make a powerful essay. Also, I'm very sorry you had to see that. Truly. [/quote] Please don't feel sorry for me. I had a family. It's the kids who came through the system who need support.[/quote] Understood. Thank you. [/quote]
