fosterparenting I get messages like this all the time. Kids in therapy, I'm in therapy. Parenting classes. Doing my best over here. I don't know how to even respond anymore. Like ma'am I live with him so I know... but giving up is not even an option. As a public school employee ya'll can't give up either unless you have another viable option for him. I'm tired and lost on this. I didn't create all this trauma I'm just trying to help but he's wounded and he's improving. I need a hug.
