This takes a real-life snapshot of the struggles of foster parents, the experiences of the children in foster carer, and, in part, the child.protective system in general. I was a a case manager years ago, and what brought it all back for me was when the kids came to their new placement with trash bags. That was defintely on point. Those who.wirk with children will not their heads at.some of the dialogue and the behaviors. Those who have never ventured in the foster care world will get an small education for sure.
