I super get it if you don’t wanna engage with even more stories of foster kids being abused given that you seem to do so a ton already, but this one’s an experience that stands out to me
My brother was placed with us when he was less than a year old. He had a cast on his leg because (and this is speculation because the previous foster dad denied doing anything) he’d been repeatedly slammed against a wall and then his leg was broken over someone’s thigh. The doctor said that his bones were still so flexible that for the break to be this bad it would have had to be intentional sustained pressure. Kid has major anger issues now but he can’t remember the trauma so it’s hard to work through. I just don’t understand opening up your home to a kid and then taking out so much anger on them. I think we have a picture of him somewhere with his eye still swollen shit. And he needed PT for a while because he learned to crawl in a cast
Both
