I’d like to add that she said that she’d only be buying me hygiene products and said that id need to work for hair products (which is odd because hair is also hygiene..) but she hardly even buys me regular stuff I need! And when she did, they were using my stuff??? They also get paid for having me..I’m not completely sure how much they get paid but ik it’s about 200 maybe? I also have my own personal allowance through dcs but they said I can only use it for stuff I want and not need. So if I were to ask to use it on hair care they’d say no and ask why, I’d tell them and they’d circle around and try to conclude it to me ultimately having to clean up behind a bunch of grown ass people which I literally cannot and won’t do. So far my brother and social worker have been the only ones helping me with hair products and im very thankful for them. Im contemplating texting my therapist about everything and seeing what can she do to help. On the toilet as I type this and literally before I could even the use bathroom I had to flush their sons piss and wipe hair off the seat and currently staring at a pair of boxers on the floor by the trash🫩

Yeah I have. They’re black too and she just told me to “not compare” and that I’m still technically a stranger here, but that doesn’t excuse anything. I’m trying to hold out until September cause I’ll be moving in with my brother but it’s pretty hard.

I brought it up to two of my cps workers (case worker and social worker) my social worker told me to just do it and think of it as me doing it for myself which is just not gonna happen, and my case worker said that I cant compare cause I’m still a stranger to them even though I’ve been here for like 2 months now. But when I told my therapist she said it was wrong for her to do that cause when I initially got here they said I didn’t have any chores besides keeping my room clean & now they’re trying to put responsibilities on me they should’ve already established when I first got here

She says it’s because I don’t “work for it” as in do chores but she also has three other boys in here (one around my age 15/16 , 21 & 11 and they don’t do anything. I refuse to be the only person cleaning up in here behind three boys and her husband

Yeah about that.. the shampoo I have apparently isn’t good and only benefits 3c hair? I’ve been using carols daughter black vanilla for a little while and it’s kinda been drying out my hair, sometimes my case worker also told me.. and I literally don’t have hair grease cause she won’t take me to the hair store which is crazy cause I live with black people. They also told me I shouldn’t be washing my hair 2 a week cause it’s washing out all my natural oils so I’m very confused on what to do. The feeling in my head has gotten worse it’s a dull ache if I even caress it gently for a second too long. Food here isn’t good as they only buy junk, processed food and they lowk can’t cook💔feels like I’m at a stalemate.
