Yours Truly, Ramona by _nicolemiller

Life doesn't abide by the rules of a child. Sixteen-year-old Ramona knows this. She's seen it throughout her entire life, from the way she was treated by her birth parents to the way she was thrown around the foster system with nothing but her little brother, Mason, to hold onto. Every bruised cheek and broken bone has slowly shattered Ramona's trust in the system and any foster parent she's ever met. In the end, it's only Mason she can trust. Her life is dedicated to making his better, and focused solely on sheltering him from the pain of feeling as lonely as she is. That is, until Ramona gets news one day that may just uproot everything she's ever believed about her and Mason's situation. Everything is about change for Mason, all because of a man named Owen Parker. He wants to take the only thing that Ramona has ever truly loved. He wants to adopt her brother, and there is nothing she can do to stop him. Though after years of running and years of pain, Ramona knows just how badly Mason needs a home. It's a breath of fresh air for him, a family filled with love, and everything that Mason has never had. But then, what about Ramona? She's brotherless, parentless, and alone in a city that has never cared about her. She has to find a way to cope, and she has to find a way to forgive the man who took her little boy from her. But she can't cope, she can't forgive, and she can only bend so many times before she breaks. - - Warning: This story deals with mature content that may be difficult for some to read, such as self-harm, suicide, drug use, abuse, depression, anxiety, and sexual harassment. - - Highest Ranks: |#1| - adopted |#1| - fosterkid |#1| - fostercare |#1| - foster |#1| - suicideawareness |#1| - recovery |#1| - comingofage |#1| - mentalillness |#1| - strength |#2| - adoption

Finding Home | ✔️ by WolfRaider56

"Nobody wants the older kids" North has been in five foster homes in just one year, mostly because it was her fault. Her two younger brothers, Asher and Oliver, always beside her. That's when the Thompson's decided to adopt but life isn't going to as easy as it seems. A/N Whenever I write stories I try to do my research before hand so I try to make it as realistic as possible. No I do not know about adoption or a life of a kid from first hand so I may get some things wrong. While not every foster/adopted kid is like North, Asher, or Ollie, it's still to help bring awareness to the situation that is affecting our world. North's character is definitely dramatized for plot or story development obviously... so I'm aware of that. Anyways please enjoy :) *sorry in advance for any typos and grammar*

Edge of Eighteen by jadenc16

-- Scarlett stared at the dingy, torn, decrepit walls of the orphanage as the years passed by slowly. Her hope diminishing as each anniversary passed, showing no signs of change and no future ahead. Now, Scarlett is seventeen and preparing to leave the orphanage and start her life over, ready to push her past to the backburner. Unbeknownst to her, seventeen will bring momentous change - more than she could have imagined - which include a change of scenery and a chance to start over. When she learns that she has been adopted suddenly, her entire life becomes uprooted and a million questions are brought to the forefront. Upon her adoption day, she is greeted by three unfamiliar faces; an older woman and two boys who looked to be around her same age. As Scarlett arrives at the old woman's house, she quickly realizes just how different she is and how different her life had truly been. The giant, old, colonial-styled house reeked of old wealth - something Scarlett had only pictured in her daydreams. Scarlett faces her new journey filled with doubt and uncertainty as she tries to uncover the old woman's past and how she fits into her puzzle, while navigating her own sooner than she expected. Her cold demeanor toward her new house-mates is set to cause a few more bumps in the road, but she is not keen on making friends and only has one goal in her mind; she is determined to finish high school without causing any more trouble and set off for college to be rid of the past events that wreaked havoc on her life. --
