      One of the hardest things for me, as a foster parent, has been understanding and addressing the fact that some kids in our care may have more trauma from events after they entered the system than anything that happened in their families of origin.https://twitter.com/strawburriez/status/1204850031326572544 …

      For the @washingtonpost, I wrote about Dontay Davis, the surviving older brother of three of the Hart children who were killed by their adoptive moms in March 2018. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/his-siblings-were-killed-by-their-adoptive-mother-he-was-left-in-foster-care-to-suffer-a-more-common-fate/2019/12/11/f54f793a-d654-11e9-9610-fb56c5522e1c_story.html …

      This article in @washingtonpost is a great start to explaining the kinds of situations I can't tell you about. Kids being overdiagnosed, becoming institutionalized, losing trust in adults, sometimes all but losing the will to advocate for themselves bc it's never worked before.

      Before I became a foster parent, my first job out of college was staff at a residential program. Let me tell you- I loved the kids. Those were some great, amazing kids. But it was easy to see how the constant changing of staff and turnover was messing with them.

      I made a goal to be a foster parent one day bc I wanted to take them home with me. Being a foster parent is a way better experience than residential staff. But kids should be with their own families whenever possible. To the extent I can support that I always will.
