Free Choice Blog Post "Foster kid & Foster youth"

The topic I choose for my free blog post is the use of the term “foster youth and foster kids”.  We are all foster kids at San Pasqual Academy, and we don’t need to be reminded every day by teachers, staff, and even people that don’t live at this campus. Saying foster youth is no different from saying we are foster kids, it’s just a nicer way of saying it! A teacher shouldn’t even say we are a foster youth or saying anything to do with us and the system, its unnecessary and we don’t the teacher names so we shouldn’t be called them. Being a foster kid isn’t right everyone knows your business, we all have “anger” issues because they say we do, We have to have a staff with us at all times when we go on outing, unless we are 16 or older with it approved. Being in the system is hard and most adults don’t understand that and act like it wont hurt us, but when we become successful then all the adults can stop talking because it would their fault we failed because they didn’t teach us right from wrong.
