i Have been in and out of foster care when i was young but when i turned 15 i was placed into foster care. For the past 3 years i have had my struggles and to many moves but i know foster care tries there best to help us and wants the best for us. In mono county where my case is is very hard cause we dont have any foster homes so we have to get placed out of the county and it SUCKS!!!! but its not the caseworkers fault its the adults who dont want to help
