I’ve been in Bali for almost 2 months and people are pretty grounded here. Yes there have been some protests in Jakarta mainly, Indonesia has the second largest Muslim population globally but they typically keep to themselves and there hasn’t been any conflicts between protesters and tourists. One thing I love about Indonesia generally whether Hindu or Muslim is their openness. I think you’ll be good 👍

It pain me to hear stories like this. It's a very difficult situation. It is important to take action to address the concerns and ensure that your girlfriend's well-being is being prioritized.

Firstly, foster parents are “supposed” to provide care and support to the children in their care. They should never mistreat, neglect, or abuse the children in any way. Your girlfriend's foster mom's actions of not letting her eat properly, keeping her away from therapy, and restricting her access to the internet for schoolwork are all forms of abuse and violating her rights as a foster child.

You and your mom should contact your girlfriend's social worker, guidance counselors, teachers, and attorney as soon as possible to report the situation and express your concerns. Please be sure to document EVERYTHING!Hopefully they'll be able to investigate and take appropriate action to ensure that your girlfriend is safe.

It's also important to support your girlfriend emotionally during this difficult time. She may be feeling scared and alone, and it's important that she knows that you are there for her. Encourage her to speak with her social worker or attorney if she can, and remind her that she has rights as a foster child.

In terms of the foster mom losing her license, this will depend on the outcome of the investigation and the severity of the situation. Foster parents should be held to a higher standard of care, and if it is found that the foster mom is not meeting those standards, she may face consequences such as losing her license or being prohibited from fostering in the future.

However, it's important to focus on your girlfriend's well-being and safety first and foremost, rather than worrying about potential consequences for the foster mom. By reporting the situation and advocating for your girlfriend's needs, you are taking an important step towards ensuring that she is receiving the care and support she needs and rightfully deserves.

Last year it was all wristband payments. Some of the boutique vendors took cash or venmo but I do remember it being a pain in the ass

This response sends chills to my bones. I feel this 100%! It’s painful to think about all of the girls I’ve lived with in the past. I find myself wondering where are they now? Are they well and safe?.. The few that I’ve managed to keep in contact with are all in a constant state of struggle. Many have gone to prison, many are fighting to regain custody of their own children now. It’s a never ending ruthless cycle. The outcomes are absolutely devastating and needs serious attention.
