Growing up in care isn't that bad. Where I am I class
them as my family because I’ve been there for so
long— hopefully you will too in your care placement.
The care system isn't easy to grow up in though
because you’re obviously going to miss your family
loads and your friends, but hopefully the pain will pass
and you will start getting used to life in care—it ain’t all
that bad. You get pocket money, clothing money and
other types of money - it depends on your care home.
There are a lot of rules in care homes but they are all
in your favour really because if you follow them you
should be fine and get rewarded for good behaviour.
