Why this petition matters

Started by Emily Paschal

I was removed from a loving and caring foster home because I formed a bond with my foster family. for the first time in 14 years I felt loved, cared for, valued, and wanted. I was free from abuse and neglect for 9 and a half months. on August 6th we had a trial for change of placement I was not allowed to speak to the judge which is my right, I was not allowed to speak to my attorney before or during the trial which was my right, I had no say I had no rights. I wanted to stay where I was continue going to the same school that I had been going to for many years I wanted to stay with my friends and I wanted to stay with my foster family.I live on a quiet street and for the first time I had my very own dog Bubbles, she was my joy. I was looking forward to the upcoming school year and all the new classes I was going to take but now I'm stuck in a place an hour away from my school my foster family, all my friends and everything I loved. I was doing well in foster care I was doing everything everyone asked of me. You cannot fix 14 years of abuse, neglect, and mistrust in a few months. My biological family and I were working towards learning how to communicate and get along in family counseling the progress was slow but steady. I don't know where I'm going to school where I will be living and you will be living what I have not been given this information as is my right and I would just like to go home to the foster family is loving cared for me for over 9 months, I don't think it's fair that I had to be moved just because I bonded with my foster family and grew to love them because they treated me like I was an individual and like I was special. please help me get this message to someone who can help turn this around who can make my life happy again. We all deserve happiness and feeling loved. Thank you for your support!l
