Such an amazing story. It made me cry. I don't think anybody body knows how it feels if they haven't gone through it them selfs. You will do a great job helping other kids going through the foster care system
I think you talking about your foster care experiences promotes awareness to those seeking to foster/adopt and gives hope to other kids. I wish you stability, acceptance, success and peace of mind bro. I’m so glad you have found a family who loves you. You are lucky to have found happiness and your foster family are lucky to have you as well. Thank you so much for sharing your story.

Hey man it’s awesome that you share these stories caz hopefully more people will want to foster and possibly adopt more children .. also remember your parents actually got to pick you and your bro so big hugs to them … always down to chat
New subscriber here, much support to you in your life journey. You deserve happiness, stability and support always! You been thru so much, yet here you are sharing, showing great heart in doing so, know you are making a difference for others too. You're a great person, know that! Just subscribed and thumbs up to your video here, look forward to continuing to support here and listening whenever you vlog here, you deserve support and have every reason to be proud of who you are. #NeverEverGiveUp #YOUmatter 🌟
It's wonderful that you've found the loving family that you've always deserved. Consider yourself blessed, and when you become an adult find a way to help other kids lost in the system.
Such better days are ahead for you and your brother. You have so much to offer the world. Stay strong, on your path and always take the high road. Yes, you are handsome. That’s way better than cute. 😂 Take care, lil bro. 🙏♥️
Great job buddy I’m a 70 year old grandpa to 2 adopted grandchildren They were adopted at birth because of their mothers situation and are currently 6 and 11 years old It’s a special gift to be able to love and parent a child of adoption My ex and I have 3 grown sons so I can spend all my time and energy on my grandkids! 😂 All the best for you in the future you have a good head on your shoulders 😉👍🏼
I'm an orphan from 7-11, got adopted the first time at 12 then on and off the foster care 6 times til I'm fully adopted at 14. They are good people bruh tbh I kinda blend into them perfectly even with my adoptive siblings. I'm now senior and I've meet many fella in foster care that I befriended with and have a LD connection with them. But without mental health journey I have ADHD, depression and anxiety. Thank you for sharing your story tho! Keep it up updating!!
You are brave and strong. I said a prayer for you. I’m sorry this is how your childhood is. You’re worthy of more. You’ll probably excel at adulting. STAY STRONG and keep the faith. ♥️
After all the turmoil you've been through, I'm not surprised you've got mental illnesses - they're a fair response to what you've been through. Also means they'll soften over time. I have a very different story, but I will tell you if you can keep counting the good things, eventually they will out weigh most of the bad.
Somehow this popped up in my YT suggestions and I thought ‘okay let’s watch’ and I’m glad I did. This talk by you was strikingly honest and perceptive and quite moving. Thanks. I’m very glad that you found a safe welcoming home.
ahhh I know how you feel. My brother and I went through foster home after foster home but it started when we were like two and three years old... My mom who put us there had no idea what she was doing. We became wards of the state. The first family we went to ... this woman had so many children she couldn't handle us all so we were strapped and tied in a crib with our hands and feet tied so we couldn't get out. When my mom came to see us, she would see that we had burns around our wrists and ankles. My mom thought she had done the right thing by putting us there because she couldn't afford to keep us until she found out we were abused. This woman got shut down. My mom couldn't take us back because she couldn't afford it at the time so we proceeded to go to foster home after foster home and the physical abuse continued. So I can totally relate to your story. Thank you for sharing.
Cats are engineered to not trust. But they can push that evolutionary skill aside, if only for a short time. I am so glad you and your brother found a permanent home! I hope that the 2 of you can find a way to trust people. It took me many years to get to that point with a person. Cats always seemed so easy and loving.
It's cool to see a advocate that tells the truth about the subject of foster care and glad the out come in this case was so great for you and the new family you and them have been blessed and the care you both took to try understand the differences compassion is amazeing thanks for the share hoping it helps outhers both parents and kids know they are not alone
Being adopted into a family that already had 4 other adopted kids creating a big family was the greatest blessing I have ever received. Each of my siblings , including myself have health issues and concerns that not once caused my loving parent to ever say anything to us other than we love you. Try not to worry too much about joking and playing around with you brother, that’s what brothers do. Just out of the blue with no reason tell them I LOVE YOU! And if you feel the sudden urge let them both know you’re my mom and dad and that you just took the long way home to get them
Such a great story. I live in Moldova (I'm an American and lived in Raleigh for a while, but Nashville is my base, now) and assist foster families through the Baptist Union here. I live on a compound sort of like the Baptist Children's Home of NC. We have 4 families currently with 23 kids in all. Each family has a mom and dad and the kids stay with one family for the most part, although there are certain circumstances where we might move a child to be with another sibling. I love hearing that you now have parents who consider you and your brother their 'whole world'. That is an encouraging thing to hear.
Thanks for sharing! As someone who experienced decades of trauma, I can only share what I wish someone had shared with me when I was your age: Marcus Aurelius - Meditations Epictetus - Enchiridion Seneca Plato - The Trial and Death of Socrates And on anxiety/panic, the quote: “Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.” So many people never have to actually BE brave because they never experience real, deep, chronic fear. Their lives are relatively comfortable. But We cannot be brave unless we are first afraid. Otherwise we are simply ignorant to the dangers around us. If you don’t know the growl in the jungle is a hungry jaguar, you won’t be afraid to approach the sound. So, when you are afraid, when you think there’s no escape from the fear, THEN every day you persist anyway, every day you get up and you go on, you shower, you get dressed, every day you go to work or school, every day you do the the things most people take for granted, know you are doing so facing fear, and you are being brave. You are deciding to continue on where most people in your situation would not. 🙏
Being adopted into a family that already had 4 other adopted kids giving a use a 7 person family was the greatest blessing I have ever received.

Your video came up in my recommended feed and I'm so glad I clicked on it! Your story is sad but yet also awesome! I'll never understand what you (and your brother) have gone through, however, making this video has brought me, and no doubt others, great awareness of this situation and subject! So I thank you for sharing it! You made me laugh when you said that you are no longer cute because you have hair growing on your legs and face so therefore you are now handsome! Well, for a young man, please take this as a compliment, when I say, yes you are a handsome young man and you are still cute looking! You can be both!!! However, don't concentrate on your looks, your personality and outlook on life is more important - use your past as a positive and strength to drive you forward for future whilst doing your best to enjoy your present! If like to follow you and your journey, so I have subscribed! I hope you have a great community on UA-cam, who will support and encourage you as you move forward, so feel free to reach out to us if ever you need anything! So take care and look after your brother! Respect and highest regards, from your new YT friend! Pin your email in comments or leave it in description.
I fostered 4 and Adopted 2. Sorry you got moved so much, the system is set up for the convenience of the Courts and Social Workers not the best interest of the kids. Many New Foster Parents don't realize how long it takes, and how hard it is to make a kid feel welcome and be there for them no matter what. Glad you found your forever family.
I am so sorry to hear about your experience! I know people think cats are flighty! But my cats have always been very grounding! They love deeply! But like us they need to feel safe and comfortable first!
Unexpected YT suggestion. I have no personal experience with social services but, from friends, heard lots of negative stories, that never went positive. I think you have hit the nail on the head (using different words) of all the people available/needing a forever family, your now parents, choose you and your brother.... how awesome is that! :) :) I saw you go silent to avoid showing the emotions.... a typical guy thing for sure - lol Thank you for sharing. I don't have a name to suggest, but pick a name that reflects the cat... and one they will respond to. One of mine was named Zoomer, and yes that name totally fit - full speed through the house, pushing screen door open, across the yard and back, up the tree, across the roof, then garage roof back to the house, leaping to the tree, where she would survey her kingdom for a bit... average was 12 seconds for the round trip. -lol It's clear you like the kitten, so I hope you don't mind my boldness, most cat lovers like to expand their kitty's environment (for lack of a better word) consider having look at Jackson Galaxy videos (among others) At one time he did a TV or cable show called "My Cat from Hell" (about repairing the cat/human relationship) most of his work now is in helping people enriching the cat/home environment as well as prevention of developing a 'cat from hell'. Warm hugs to you and family.
Hi Kiddo, your video just popped up on my feed and I'm glad it did. Thanks for telling your story. I am so glad it had a happy ending for you and your brother. It's heartbreaking to think of you being bounced around from family to family and from school to school. It's hard enough to need foster care without that disruption in your young lives. Your wellbeing should have been the priority at all times. But at least now you have a forever family where you both are loved, needed and wanted. And by the way, you are cute, and as far as your parents are concerned, you always will be. They're blessed to have you two wonderful boys in their lives just as you are blessed to have them. I've subscribed. Best wishes❤
Thank you for sharing! I'd be interested to hear more about how you knew this family really loved you (since you said you had already been in many families and started having trouble attaching). I've always thought that fostering / adoption is a wonderful thing and I would like to participate if I was in the right situation, but its hard to know what makes a good foster / adoptive parent.
Cat name=Fluffhead, which is also a song by Phish. DL a live vresion of it, Congrsts on finding your forever family. I'm assuming your brother is your bio brother & your parents adopted both of you. I am not adopted but for some reason I watch a LOT of YT shows about adoption. EVERYBODY deserves to be loved and I'm glad you are loved So 2 of the Y T channels I watch are Crazy Pieces, they live in AZ & have I think 16 kids, I think 3 are their bio kids. The other YT channel I watch is Crazy Middles, also live in AZ & have numerous adopted kids. The mother's from the 2 shows are biological sisters. I also watch a YT channel called Now I Am Known...also about adoption I'm a new subscriber to ur channel. Live the best life u can!
He mentioned ADHD, and other challenges... a friend of mine had ADHD and other challenges... he had 3 placements in 6 months, because the foster parents were unprepared and unable (or unwilling) to cope and likely asked for / demanded a change/review of placement. This was 20 years ago, and from what I've seen/heard, don't think much has changed to make sure fosters can 'handle' particular challenges. (just opinion, not fact) I know a couple that does foster some types of 'special needs' but they also have extensive training / education and experience in that field.
Such an amazing story. It made me cry. I don't think anybody body knows how it feels if they haven't gone through it them selfs. You will do a great job helping other kids going through the foster care system
I think you talking about your foster care experiences promotes awareness to those seeking to foster/adopt and gives hope to other kids. I wish you stability, acceptance, success and peace of mind bro. I’m so glad you have found a family who loves you. You are lucky to have found happiness and your foster family are lucky to have you as well. Thank you so much for sharing your story.

Hi from Wisconsin, it will only get better,
Such a great story. I live in Moldova (I'm an American and lived in Raleigh for a while, but Nashville is my base, now) and assist foster families through the Baptist Union here. I live on a compound sort of like the Baptist Children's Home of NC. We have 4 families currently with 23 kids in all.

I love hearing that you now have parents who consider you and your brother their 'whole world'. That is an encouraging thing to hear.
Thanks for sharing! As someone who experienced decades of trauma, I can only share what I wish someone had shared with me when I was your age:
Marcus Aurelius - Meditations
Epictetus - Enchiridion
Seneca
Plato - The Trial and Death of Socrates
And on anxiety/panic, the quote:
“Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.” So many people never have to actually BE brave because they never experience real, deep, chronic fear. Their lives are relatively comfortable.
But We cannot be brave unless we are first afraid. Otherwise we are simply ignorant to the dangers around us. If you don’t know the growl in the jungle is a hungry jaguar, you won’t be afraid to approach the sound.

Thank you for sharing your story. I know it must have been tough during those years. Im glad its working out now for you.
Tough break.
Hope you’re doing ok … now and always.
Hi Kiddo, your video just popped up on my feed and I'm glad it did. Thanks for telling your story. I am so glad it had a happy ending for you and your brother. It's heartbreaking to think of you being bounced around from family to family and from school to school. It's hard enough to need foster care without that disruption in your young lives. Your wellbeing should have been the priority at all times. But at least now you have a forever family where you both are loved, needed and wanted.

My husband and I are hoping to foster kids. We fostered a kitty once, that ended in disaster because I got too attached! I will pray for you!
They were soo blessed with you and your brother. P s I have a 🐈 cat
Wish you the best.
Beautiful cat ❤❤ new sub
Thank you for sharing! I'd be interested to hear more about how you knew this family really loved you (since you said you had already been in many families and started having trouble attaching). I've always thought that fostering / adoption is a wonderful thing and I would like to participate if I was in the right situation, but its hard to know what makes a good foster / adoptive parent.
I was in a children's home at the age of 8 til I was 13 and it was the best time of my life despite not being with my mum.
Youre amazing bro keep your head init
I think yhink Bones would be a great name for her... Most of the time gray striped kitties look like kind of a skeleton pattern.
As far as a name for the cat… I think it would be best if that comes from you. Search your heart and mind and you will find a great name.
Name the cat Grayby (combine the words gray and baby, because she's such a cute little gray baby). Cats are awesome.
very happy for you but the bed makes to much noise, doing something in it got to be tough lol
your toes, they were on screen for half a second I think, but they were very nice hahaha, I'm just saying.
I am so sorry and feel so sad for you ❤❤
All we want in this life is to be wanted and feel needed
You deserve the best ❤
Cat name=Fluffhead, which is also a song by Phish. DL a live vresion of it,
Congrsts on finding your forever family. I'm assuming your brother is your bio brother & your parents adopted both of you.
I am not adopted but for some reason I watch a LOT of YT shows about adoption. EVERYBODY deserves to be loved and I'm glad you are loved
So 2 of the Y T channels I watch are Crazy Pieces, they live in AZ & have I think 16 kids, I think 3 are their bio kids.
The other YT channel I watch is Crazy Middles, also live in AZ & have numerous adopted kids. The mother's from the 2 shows are biological sisters.
I also watch a YT channel called Now I Am Known...also about adoption
I'm a new subscriber to ur channel.
Live the best life u can!
Cute cat
Wish u the best

Why where there 11 placements in such a short time? :O Did authorities declare foster parents were not doing their job adequetly?
He mentioned ADHD, and other challenges... a friend of mine had ADHD and other challenges... he had 3 placements in 6 months, because the foster parents were unprepared and unable (or unwilling) to cope and likely asked for / demanded a change/review of placement. This was 20 years ago, and from what I've seen/heard, don't think much has changed to make sure fosters can 'handle' particular challenges. (just opinion, not fact) I know a couple that does foster some types of 'special needs' but they also have extensive training / education and experience in that field.
