14 years of foster care......never adopted

Originally Posted By NinaMy name is Nina. I was in foster care for 14 years and I was never adopted. I had many horrible experiences as a foster child, but a lot of great ones.

I found my real mother a little over a year ago and i am now living with her while I work and get enough money for a place of my own. My mother and I are really close. I have met my father too. I am happy I never got adopted, because i feel if i had been adopted, their would have been some conflict when i tried to find my biological parents. nichole
