    The Challenge for "Aged-Out" Foster Teens

When I was in foster care, it didn’t seem like I had any choices or any future. All kids deserve families. The need a family, to have someone, this is a father, this is a mother � they need a family so they can believe in themselves and grow up to be somebody. This is a big deal people don’t realize. I wish everybody could understand.
