Every teenager looks forward to their 18th
birthday, coming of age, being an adult. It is a very important milestone in
life. But there are some children that absolutely dread their 18th
birthday. Almost 25,000 children each year don’t have parents to support them
after the age of 18, which is sad because it is said that children aren’t
completely independent from their parents until they are 34 years old. These
would be the 25,000 children that have aged out of the foster care system. So
what happened on the day our blonde friend, Gaia, aged out of the foster care
system? She was kicked out of her foster home and only had one place to go…the
gang next door.
