The deep seated irony of Jonah needing to rely on other adoptees, who likely have less resources, instead of APs, who we know have more resources, is so hard 😭💔

So vital! That one is a nationwide stat. Each state differs, I’m in CO where I have yet to meet a FC in care due to neglect from poverty. But this is the article www.fftllc.com/blog/alarmin...

I’m so grateful that not only do adoptees and former foster youth have such an avenue for connection and community on social media but also that we have platforms to elevate your voices over the societal narrative that we need adoption and it’s positive

Even when a post adoption contact agreement is in place APs still have all the power. The number of loop holes that keep them from being legally enforceable is insane

I was trying to tag you directly but couldn’t find your account for some reason. The DM is from a paternal grandma on the clock app who just found out her grand child was surrendered to a SHBB 2 years ago. She reached out to Monica for help.

Yes! 76% of kids are in care because of neglect yet we don’t distinguish between intentional neglect and neglect due to poverty.

Just here as a foster parent, and one of the littles with us has struggled so much with asking for help that it impacted their academics as they couldnt tell the teacher they didn’t know something. They’re 5 😭💔

This was my thought exactly and I was hoping to find a better clarification in the article between the western idea of adoption vs merely providing safe external care while family is located, etc

The lack of support for families taking in kids in crisis in their own family is awful. As a FP I have way more support and resources than most #kinship providers will ever have
