Hi TAS -

No worries.

I also was thinking of posting the link below, and hesitated. It's to a recent Reuters 5-part expose on the abusive practice of informal adoption 'rehoming'.

I hesitated because basically it's so full of triggers - as well as being not exactly what you were looking for - but I'll leave it to you to decide whether to read or not, if you haven't seen it already. It's pretty harrowing. But perhaps there is something there that might also helpfully speak to your experience of foster care. I'm so sorry that you went through the loss of your parents, and all the aftermath.

TRIGGERS for repeated abandonment, abuse, systemic failure.
