Were any of you adopted, how do you feel about it. Are you glad you were? Just looking into a bit of info on how the child feels really. Pm me if you would prefer ta.

    my 17 year old bf, and his 15 yr old sister, 10 yr old bro and 7 yr old sister are all fostered, but he lives with the older sister with a foster family and is only allowed to see his lil bro and sis once a year. i think he would have quite a calm, easy life if he had no contact with his parents - they constantly depend on him for money etc, but do nothing for him in return, often physically harming him (his alcoholic mother stabbed him with an aerial the other day, and his dad used to beat him up regularly when he was younger).
    i think fostering/adoption is different for every kid - some might feel more freedom, some may feel rejected / miss their family.
