Personal Narrative: Foster Home
Grandma is kind full,of heart….No matter where I am. What I’m doing. She follows every step. She makes sure I am alright and how I’m doing in life.

Today, me and Grandma were mournful that I’m move into a different foster home. We remember how much things we did together, going to neighbor to help out corn, eating honey from a beehive, and going for a walk in the valley street full of people that we have known.

A fresh new day. I noticed my Uncle was nice a man, but Auntie was not at all. All I know is that she still cares about me. Also my life is not the same. Day after day, month after month pass, the days are almost the same. I wonder if Grandma will ever come see me again. Usually in the morning I eat buns/dumplings or rice. It was alright,

    She was born on a busy summer night on September 13th 1918 in Brookline, Massachusetts. I always had the feeling that Rosie was a little different from the rest of us. On the day of her birth the midwife arrived late, and my theory is that this action deprived her brain of oxygen. We were proven right when she failed to advance from kindergarten and was deemed to suffer from intellectual disabilities. When this happened our parents began to conceal their third child from society.…

    To begin with, I was over my grandma's house on a warm and cozy summer night. When out of the blue my mom asks Me if I would rather go to school online or regular high school she stated that if I chose to go to school online I'll be going to a school named Penn foster. Because it would let me work at my own pace, it didn't cost too much, plus they would help me if I didn't quite understand one of my courses. My first thought was wow why the heck not! and blurted out yep I wanna go to school…

    While sitting in my dining room, next to the kitchen, I see my mom rubbing her boots with each other in an effort to slide them off. She had just come from work. She leaned to her left to place her hand on the wall to find balance. Walking towards the living room, she observed grains of yellow lentils scattered over the dark and light brown rug next to the sliding ride that my little nephew was enjoying. “Did you guys not vacuumed today?” in her regular authoritative, demanding voice. Her jacket with a sticker of Foster Farms smelled like raw chicken as she proceeded to take it off. While she was removing her jacket, she kneeled down to give a kiss to my son. She is only five feet and chubby and seems like someone who have a low and calm voice.…

    Having grown up in a single parent home with two sisters who did not complete high school, made the pressure for me to succeed unimaginable. The constant reminder of achieving greatness has stuck with me since I was eight years old. Throughout middle school I was top of my class, in high school I graduated cum laude with a 4.4 GPA and currently in my 1st year of college I am top of my intermediate/college algebra class, I scored the highest grade out of all 5 of my psychology teachers classes, and I have an A in my Philosophy class. My educational goals consist of gaining knowledge throughout my entire life, achieving higher than my goals, being as involved as I can possibly be with my college/ community, and continuing to prosper. Ever since…

    Some may say that everyone in life deserves second chances. Second chances allow for people to right there wrongs and make amends. Unfortunately, some people squander their second chances, and even their third and fourth chances, and should not be given any more. This could likely be the viewpoint of many foster children who have spent years in the system, and who have, in many cases, given up on being happy. Growing up in foster care can drastically change someone’s perspective on the world, and I know for a fact that it greatly scarred mine.…

    Foster Care Essay

    Foster care started in the 1500’s because of the overwhelming number of children without parents and, therefore, homes. The biggest reason there were so many children without guardians was because this was a time when many people had to resort to indentured servitude to survive. There were also many more people dying from now-preventable or now-curable diseases, and when parents died, their kids would join the other orphans in the streets. The number of children on the streets was a problem for many reasons, including moral obligations, excessive thieving problems and the vandalization of homes and businesses. The government had to come up with a way to get these kids off the streets, and their solution was foster care.…

Samara! I have something for you, from Mrs. Castillo! After she was done sprinting, she handed me a note that said “Mrs. Castillo’s office, and I looked at the bottom and I saw something circled… and it said NOW!!! In all capitals.

    I entered the foster care system at age 4 due to my birth mothers drug problems. I was immediately adopted to a family of 12 before I could even understand the reality of my own life. It hit quick when I was old enough to think for myself. I began to notice how emotionally abusive the adoptive mother was. She played me and my younger blood sister against each other and made sure I knew that I was worth nothing and would never amount to anything. Dealing with such a relationship made my preteen years unbearable, I turned to friends at school and the adoptive father for support and comfort. At age 14 I was place back in the foster system without a clue as to why. After a long, hard confusing year full of interrogations and mixed feelings, the conclusion was stated. I was in foster care because my adoptive father had sexually abused 4 of my siblings, including my younger sister. This was old news to the adoptive mother, which brought light to the reason why she acted the way she did toward me. The discovery of this left me feeling angry, sad and betrayed all at the same time. To think that someone I confided in and looked up to for 10 years of my life could do such a thing caused me to lose all trust and hope in people.…

    As a kid growing up in a series of foster homes, whenever the social worker would show up at the door it would brighten my day. Even if I didn't particularly like the social worker who showed up, just their personal appearance would mean at least a few days of relief from the usual abuse that went on. Since I didn't attend the one-to-one session between the social worker and my foster parents I was never quite sure whether they were acting out of fear or guilt when they would be on their best behavior for the first few days after that interview. Maybe it was both.…

    I want to start off by saying how excited I am to be joining A Place for Mom!! I started my career in health care nine years ago, originally working in nursing. I have worked in a variety of health care settings; Independent/Assisted Living, Memory Care, Long Term Care, Skilled Care, and the Hospital. I always knew I wanted to help people, seniors in particular. As a child I grew up living next door to my grandparents and did everything with them, this is where my love for seniors began. While working in the Hospital I came to the conclusion that nursing was not the way I was going to help people. I began working at an Assisted Living Community in Ames, Iowa as the Sales Director. I quickly learned that, that was how I was going to help people. For three years I got the pleasure of not only helping many families relieve their stress and fears for their loved ones care and safety, but I was also able to ensure their loved ones were able to live out their final years thriving. It was truly the most rewarding job, which brought me to A Place for Mom. At A Place for Mom I won't be limited to helping just the families that…
