What It’s Like Growing Up in Foster Care
If you ask me how many homes I lived in, I honestly couldn’t tell you. Was it twelve? Fifteen? More? After a while, they all blur together. Each one was supposed to be a “fresh start,” but when you’re a kid in foster care, that phrase loses meaning real quick. Fresh starts just mean more garbage bags to cram your life into. And that’s how it is, by the way—your whole childhood, your entire sense of safety and stability, reduced to a few battered trash bags and whatever you can grab when it’s time to go.
How to Raise a Child Who Trusts Their Voice

Let’s cut to the heart of it.
If your child grew up and landed in a relationship just like yours—same tone, same conflict style, same emotional connection, same dynamic—would you be proud? Or would something inside you twist a little?

“Does anyone else get demotivated seeing 30-year-olds with $500k+ net worths?”
Does anyone else feel totally demoralized when scrolling through Reddit or FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) forums and seeing 30-year-olds with $500k+ net worths?
