Can’t help but cry at this, man. Everyone deserves to feel love.
Half the Women on the Planet ought not to give Birth !
Purple Sunflower not for you to decide.
Yeah, it got me too Bro 🤜🤛
Life doesnt owe anybody shit
There’s so many great videos like this about kids in care, which is great, but I’d love to see the bbc actually do some documentaries on foster families themselves, and how fostering impacts the birth children. My mum is a foster carer and I think this could be a really good documentary idea
Sophina Sartori this is a great idea and something we’ve said needs doing too! Our parents have fostered for about 8 years I think and it’s not always easy as rewarding as it is
Great videos "KIDS IN CARE???
I'm a Media student and a care leaver and I'm thinking of doing just that
We are Foster Carers specifically for teenagers here in England as they are our chosen age group. Our 18-year-old young lady has just left us to go to a university hundreds of miles away. She achieved it because we kept her in a calm, steady, safe and caring environment, which enabled her to really concentrate on her studies. We also made sure she had the independence and life skills to succeed in the next stage of her life. Thankfully, they have a professional support system at the university to keep an eye on her and we will stay in touch too. I do hope that the young ladies featured in your video will also be supported to succeed in life. Wishing all concerned the very best of luck. xx
I am so fortunate and privileged to have a loving family, I've really taken it for granted my whole childhood
I’m so lucky that I’ve been with the most amazing family since I can remember.
Now I realise I’m lucky I have a mum like mine x
Bless, hope everything works out x She deserves better x
What a beautiful group of young women! They have all been through so in their short lives but they are more loving and wise than most people I know
So sweet girl, hope all good for her.
Wishing her and all girls and boys like these the best luck in life. I am a mother of boys desperate for a little girl to look after, sadly adoption and Fostering is so expensive and there are so many loops to jump through otherwise I'd definitely be able to give another child a good loving home. Sending love to you girls xxx
What an incredible woman, all the best to you Lucy xxx
Well done I hope you like university .
I passed through like this situation the past month, I now live with my aunt. She is young, but she is so loving and kean for supporting me.
Ask anything about this if you want.
Stay blessed. In which condition are you now. I mean is everything going well?
What an incredible story. What an incredible girl. Hope uni goes well for her
good luck at uni Lucy, thanks for sharing your story
This is beautiful ❤️
I wish her all the best💕
What an amazing girl.and all the girls are very brave
Go girl, well done!! 💪👍👍
I hope Lucy made it.
My heart breaks for these girls, yet so thankful there is a place for them to nurture them!
Watching this thinking how my family really care about Me It brakes my heart to see these teens Homeless I hope there all ok now
I feel so sorry for u and for anyone has been in a similar situation 😭💛
These programs are amazing... America could really learn from this.
America would just do an over dramatized desperate housewives version 🙈
If America had programs like this, they would allocate billions💰💰💰 for program like this, but ALL the 💰 would go to someone's filthy pockets, and these "shelters" would be fully staffed with pedophiles🤦
I wish her all the success in the world xx
First words out of my mouth "that's so beautiful!"😂 God bless!
Went to this hostel it was absolutely shit the woman speaking in the video used to go sick at all the the girls met Lucy there aswell she was lovely so nice to me when I was there
Oh so sad to know this. Where and in which condition are you right now
fostering adopting is a beautiful thing to do xxx
Best wishes for the future.
When i was 5 years old my father took me from my mother with her conscent, to live with him and his new wife.
It quickly bacame apparent to me that she took an instant dislike to me, more like hatered. She had four children of her own. Anyway the abuse started off almost immediately making me stand in the corner of the room facing the wall for absolutely no reason that a five year old child would understand anyway. The days went on with low level mental abuse, well to a five year old boy it was devastating. My father was a long distant driver so all this abuse took place when he was out, but he could see that I was unhappy there. So her four children started to bully me and attacked me in the house. They had a dog that use to nip me, and they would all just laugh. I started to hear her mother say to her, "Why don't you just dump him somewhere." So after a year of mental tourment at the hands of everyone in that house, she finally decided to take her mothers advice and dump me on the street I was only 6 years. So Social services placed me with a foster family but after a year the moved me to a children's home. That was a blow to me because I became part of a loving family. When I was 8 years old they moved me to another children's gome where I stayed for 8 years. I left the children's home when I was 16, then they moved me to another children's home for a year, then when I was 17 they moved me to an half way house to get me use to an independant life. I left the care system as I went in feeling alone, worried, & affraid. Of course i have not put every awful experience in this post. Thank You.......................................
Why did they never manage to contact your biological mother to take you back? I’m so confused because if you were taken from her without her consent that sort of suggests that she didn’t want to part with you
@@cocobrowny she found out where I was and left me there
The system and those adults failed you and no-one should ever be treated like that - especially not a child. I hope you are doing better and wish you all the success. One day you will have a family of your own and unconditional love - give your children a beautiful childhood
Awww them girls
I have decided to adopt a baby girl when I was in my teenage years now as grown up women in my 30s have worked more then 60hrs to get a house and start my adoption journey and thanks God I'm half way there makes me feel so good that soon will have my baby home and I can give love and attention and safety home
This makes me so happy, finally something positive
You're a nice soul
2019 and no captions🤦♀️???!!! Why?🤷♀️
She’s speaking fine English idk what you can’t understand
Lucy Grainger im deaf....
Oh no i hope Better is ok
❤
I was put into care when I was 3 and I'm 15 now
Why was Lucy put in care? Under what circumstances?
Her little brother was battered...hospitalised. So they took both children into care.
I am already imagining the Wellard deleted scenes of Tracy beaker
I’m in care been in care since I was one and I didn’t like to be in care. This is really upsetting for me cus I have a whole story to tell l
You should tell it!
If from my one like your life will be good so i will make so many like in your channel because your doing good job to show and run this kind of episode for homeless .
😢😢😢😢😘😘😘
Why oh why are there not more independent living units for young people leaving care!
I hope justice gets served for her biological parents for abusing her brothers.
This is one of the toughest accent to distinguish…I wish I knew what they were saying.
I'm 17 and homless, I dont know where to go
I'm assuming you live in the UK. Go to your local council and ask for help from their housing team, because you are under 18 years old they have a duty of care to help you.
My neighbour has a child that will have to go into care. I think it's for the best though..
Tracy beaker 😢
I am in cear and I am part time work
Awww bless them all. God bless them Dear Lord may they know your tender loving care and direction and protection always in Jesus name Amen. ++×
SoMe gUy wOZ hEre

Sad sack 🤣
If this is where our own people live their life then it's better to be a animal in the next life
What? I don't understand what you mean... please explain!
i cant understand her
They obviously battered her to she seems special needs especially her talking head twitching thank god they got out there poor girl
100 years back people of North East India need great missionary and UK produce such people like William Carey , William Pettigrew etc who help us see Jesus and become Christ follower. Now I think UK need people who can show them Christ and become a great nation. the home Great saints like John Newton, William Pettigrew, William Carey cannot end in vain when they sacrifice their life for Jesus in North East India. My prayer with the people of UK. May God revive the Christian generation once again. Only in Christ family is there no homelessness, no starvation. Christ family is rule by Love.
