...? oh, the houses Places I lived. I wanted to see how many I could remember.

What happened to Billy?

His momma didn't want him kissin on a girl with no family to speak of.

I didn't move round. Just had the one home.

She didn't know what she was talking about.

The first few years I don't think I stayed anywhere longer than a few months.

Oh, she did, sugar. Poor Billy'd be all wound up in the Family if she let him kiss on me instead of on Mary Ellie.

Why don't anyone realize that system's broke?

Because people like to pretend all parents are good ones, and that everything works out like Annie for orphans. Fixing the system would mean acknowledging that kids suffer in it, and no one likes thinking about that.

Then someone who already knows what it's like should try to fix it.

Shane, you know the system well as I do. It's all papers and waitin and nothin ever gets done without a million judges agreein on things. There ain't a bit of money in fixin it so no one cares.

Then someone should make them.

Or at least try to make things better for the kids that are stuck with it.

How?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]wolfishane

At the bare minimum? Get them someone they can talk to, someone who's not going to brush off the things that bother them or just yank them out of that home and send them off to another one just as bad.

Oh, sugar, who? There's so many of em. How do you even decide who gets help and who don't? It ain't as easy as setting up a hotline, is it?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]wolfishane
2010-05-30 04:42 pm UTC (link)
Of course not. Nobody can be everywhere. You focus on the kids that are close. this is starting to sound like less and less of a good idea

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[...]

Maybe we do set up a hotline, sugar. And just see if anyone calls?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]wolfishane
2010-05-30 04:45 pm UTC (link)
[...] Maybe. I think they would.

And they wouldn't have to leave, for that, if the family they're with wouldn't want to let them.

We can put up fliers in the schools? We'd have to sneak to do it, but we could.

That could work. All we'd have to do is arrange to get the phone number reconnected.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]ex_sanguine300

What phone number?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]wolfishane
2010-05-30 11:38 pm UTC (link)
Mine. As long as it's redirected, why not?

We gotta think this through more than that, darlin.

Why does it need to be more complex?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]ex_sanguine300

Cause messin with kids like that ain't legal for one, and going against the system ain't legal either. We gotta cover our tracks on this.

How is it you're alive again?

Untraceable cellphone, darlin, with a signal they can't triangulate. That's for starters. Something that ain't ever been used before and they can't pull up a history for a find calls to your dentist or my psychiatrist.

I'm aware of that.

You're right, cell phone's better. I'll find something.

It's really not.

Good. Are they satisfied?

I didn't say much. Mikey came by and we worked it out. He's still hopin to run everythin one day, and he's soft on me.

[info]ex_sanguine300

They ain't payin the apartment anymore, and I ain't workin for them. It's a start.

Nowhere yet. I'm paid through June, so I got a few weeks before I start panicking.

Don't ya know that I'm real resourceful? Plus, my apartment's plenty small, since the one next door's bigger than most on this floor. It's gonna cost less that the others here, bein a studio and all.

I know you are. doesn't stop me from worrying what might happen if you run out of money

But if you can't find anything, tell me.

I ain't gonna throw my problems on you, sugar. The coffee shop round here is hiring. I might go there come tomorrow. If ya wanna walk me, ya can.
