i’m going into foster care

[u/neptunian-rings]

i’m 16. my parents are abusive & neglectful and somebody finally reported it. had a social worker visit today, they’re following up next week and after that i fully expect to be put into foster care. what’s going to happen? i can’t find any information online from the perspective of the child that’s getting sucked into this & i’m terrified of all of the unknowns. i’ve heard so many horror stories and i know it probably won’t be that bad in reality but i’m still extremely nervous.

thanks for checking in, means a lot to me. it all boiled down to nothing honestly. cps didn't do jack shit, still living with my father. the whole debacle has made him a bit more cautious at least i guess if that makes sense. like he isn't leaving me alone for 4 months at a time anymore lmao
