No, I didn't. But I lost my family. I have lived my life without family. I was a foster kid several times in my life.

I could have been put with my father's parents, who were pretty normal, sane people. But I wasn't. I was given to whack jobs instead. I experienced more violence and abuse in foster care, than I did with the violent abusers who were my family.

Children die often in foster care-- even more are horribly abused in it. But nobody seems to care about THAT.

It's disgusting that family is more important to the person without it, than it is to people who have it!
