well. I was put into fostercare some months ago,I was then returned to my home under one condition,my step dad had to move out. my mom said ok. the thing is that when I came back home I had to get adjusted to a different life.a cheap one. since he moved out, we don't have much money. when i first came home i hated it. my brother called me a liar, he said he wished i was back in foster care or dead,didn't matter to him.my mom wasn't exactly the best either. so i told my counselor. she trying to help me out now. now they swithched my case worker and she hasn't opened up yet. they have now restarded my case but she hasn't sais why, I scared that the reason why is because my counselor knows i wanted to be back in foster care, and i know once my mom finds out, she's going to be royally pissed,but what can i do.foster care has ruined my life.

ALEX S....YOU ARE TOTALLY WRONG.I PROBALY DIDN'T MAKE IT CLEAR.MY MOM HAS CHOSEN ME OVER HIM.SHE HAS A WAY OF TRYING TO LOOK GOOD TO OTHER PEOPLE. U CALL ME UNGRATEFUL,I'M NOT.I APPRECIATE FOSTERCARE AND THEM TAKING ME OUT OF A DANGEROUS SITUATION,BUT THINGS HAPPENED AND I WITNESSED THINGS. I GUESS I SHOULDN'T SAY IT RUINED MY LIFE,BUT I HAVE BEEN EMOTIONALLY SCARRED FROM FOSTERCARE AND WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. I THINK THAT THE FACT THAT YOU INSULT ME WAS A WAIST OF YOUR TIME,IF YOU WERE GOING TO INSULT ME,YOU SHOULD HAVE KEPT IT TO YOURSELF.I FORGOT THAT ARE NOT IN MY PLACE,SO YOU CAN CRITIZIZE.YOU MAY NOT KNOW WHAT IT FELLS LIKE TO BE PUT DOWN MANY MANY TIMES,LIKE I HAVE. I HOPE SOMEDAY YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND,THAT I ASK THESE QUESTIONS FOR REASSURANCE AND GUIDANCE,NOT TO BE PUT DOWN AND RIDICULED AGAIN.

AS I FORGOT TO MENTION alex s... I
DID NOT STATE THAT THE MONEY SITUATION DID NOT PLEASE ME,I SIMPLY JUST PUTTING THE TRUTH.AS YOU MAY SEE,I DIDN'T PUT EXACTLY HOW I FELT ABOUT THE MONEY.
YOU STATED THAT YOU THOUGHT IS WAS NICE OF MY MOM TO GET ME OUT OF FOSTER CARE,THAN LEAVE ME.YOU ASSUMED THAT EVERY THING IS FINE NOW, YOU ASSUME THAT I'M THE HAPPIESS PERSON ON EARTH.YOUR MISTAKEN.YOU STRESS HOW THOUSANDS OF KIDS LITERALLY BEG TO GET OUT OF FOSTER CARE, BECAUSE IT'S JUST OH SO HORRIBLE.SOMETIMES WE KIDS DON'T KNOW WHATS GOOD FOR US,I KNOW I BELONG IN FOSTER CARE,MANY ADULTS HAVE TOLD ME ALONG WITH MY BROTHER. WITHOUT SAYING IT,SO HAS MY MOM. I DON'T LIKE LIVING IN A HOUSE WHERE EVERY ONE THINKS I'M A LIAR.IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYWAY,THEIR ISN'T ENOUGH MONEY TO SURVIVE,ONCE MY STEPDAD GOES TO JAIL,IF HE DOES.MY MOM HAS A DISIBILITY,SHE REALLY CAN'T WORK.I'LL END BACK UP IN FOSTERCARE ANYWAY PROBALY. I DON'T THINK MY CASEWORKER WOULD LIKE ME LIVING ON THE STREET.

Look , just b/c you want go back , doesn't mean you will. If your mother is going by the court order then you are to be at home. I understand the difficulties . Your brother has some serious issues and is causing you emotional pain on top of what you already had to deal with . It is weird to move back home . especially if you had wonderful foster parents like me . If your mom blames you for what happened . you could get to go back . that is emotional abuse . Or if she allows your brother to emotionally abuse you. If that's the case , call your social worker immediately.
I'm glad your mother chose you over your step-father . Alot of women don't chose their kids over their man .Sad but true

OH MY GOD. WHAT THE HECK IS YOUR PROBLEM?Based on what you said:First of all, your mother agrees to get rid of her husband for YOU. Then, you get taken out of foster care, which is a BLESSING because there are HUNDREDS of kids that would LOVE to be taken OUT of foster care, because its NOT a way to live, and now you are complaining because your mother is CHEAP and doesn't have enough MONEY to suit your TASTE!!???You are just about the worlds most ungrateful being. And you have the AUDACITY to say that FOSTER CARE ruined YOUR life? You know what? Your mother should put you back in foster care and forget about you because you are just rude. It sounds like you are playing the system to get your way. Foster care has not ruined your life. They gave a a chance to rebuild your lost time between your mother, however, YOU REJECTED IT! ITS YOUR FAULT! Please clarify if Im wrong, but based on what you said, that is my ANSWER!It sounds like you are a brat!

Don't be scared, I don't know how old you are but look at it like this. One day you'll be of age and be able to attend to your own life where you can make it better and live without being scared. Talk to your counselor and see what happens. Sorry you have to go through that.

I have no clue what your situation is. All that I can say is that you should be honest with your mother and tell her how you feel. There should be no reason why you would be scared of that, and I would talk to your counselor and tell him/her about this and insist that your case worker gets off his/her ***. The case worker is there for you.
