This is part 1 of a series of videos that I am putting together that I talk about my experiences being taken from my family and placed in foster care. In this video I talk about the tactics that the HRS (now DCF) used to get me to agree that the accusations against my father were true. I was only 12 years old and even though I had a busted lip the marks on my forehead were because I have dry skin and I tried to cover it with makeup. I will call them DCF from here on out so you know who I am talking about.
My teacher called and made a claim of abuse against my father. Which caused me to be removed from school that day and taken to the police station where I sat there for the rest of the day and into the night. With no food and only 1 glass of water. I spent hours telling them what they claimed was not true. However they insisted and even told me that if I agreed they would let me leave. I just wanted to go home so I finally agreed that what they were saying was the truth. They than took me to a foster home. I talk a little about the horrible conditions this home was. And I tell you why I left. I also decided at that moment that I would not ever stay in another foster home.
I also talk about when they put me in a mental hospital. I was a chronic runner and I felt that I was better off on my own than I was staying in a foster home. I was never reunified with my family and I aged out of the system.

Thank-you so much for making this video!
What a horrendous thing you and your family endured.
I was happy to hear how much spunk and fight that you had though, and how you kept running away and did not go along with their lies.
As I will be sharing in Anna's story, her daughter was only 9-yrs-old when she was taken away and told a pile of outrageous lies about how her step-father had abused her. Being so young and pliable, she eventually started to believe that something had happened to her -- but that's only because she was not able to run away like you did -- and she had to listen for years to Social Workers telling her that your dad did this and that to you. They planted images in her head that not child should ever be exposed to. The Social Workers are the ones who abused her -- NOT her parents!
I am looking forward to part II of your story.

this happens far too often. It is really sad and needs to be stopped.

I feel for you. Once you are forced into the system i is hard to get out of it. i know of someone here in the town I live in who has cared for about 36 children over a period of several decades IN ADDITION to her own children. It is an income for her and the system is often trying to pawn children off on her. I think it is a job for her. She may not physically abuse them but verbally she has said too much. it is sad that this has turned into a money racketeering business on our youth. I appreciate your story and what you learned from all of this. Sad of what you went through and the experiences lost. My prayers are with you and God will bless you. Thanks for sharing.

thank you. As an adult my husband and I became foster parents. That lasted only 2 years as we quickly became tired of the lies and garbage they did. We decided to be foster parents because we were both foster children so we knew what the kids were going through.

I really want to listen to this, but Dtube is acting up right now. I'll try again in the morning.
Just from what you have written out, it sounds like your case has many similarities to what my friend Anna's daughter went through.
EDIT: It is working much better on your 2nd link - IPFS,
but then it paused 15 minutes into it. I'll finish listening in the morning.

I do not know why it is acting up. Maybe a system overload.

This is saddening! The lengths at which they would go to make money all in the name of child care and rights. Even if it meant destroying a family.
I didn't know about this. And now that I do, I won't stop talking! I can't. Not until the world knows!

It is a shame that this is still going on. I can not tell you how many children are removed from false allegations each year.

Disheartening. They grow up to not knowing what it's like to have a parents. The frustration these parents must feel. – having a restraining order slapped to their face. They cannot see their children. Yet He/She is somewhere they know.

Thank you for sharing your story with us, I have only read the short description as my internet is very slow at the moment, I will follow you and watch all the videos as I also grew up in Foster care where I constantly run away till they let me go at the age of 15.
I hope your story reaches out to the right people and that people start to get a clearer picture of what happens to children in the 'care' system.
Thank you for joining @familyprotection
Together we will make a difference.

I am going to my friends later to use his fast internet so I can watch both, from the little I could see I believe this to be a valuable insight, a real life account of how the care system is rotten to the core.
Thank you once again for being brave and sharing your past with us.
Bless.
