Eighteen Years Seth: Growing up in Foster Care (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781662447686)

We all look at people and think we know them, but it sure would help us truly understand them if we could go back and see their life at different points of times so we can see what they have been through: their joys, their struggles, what made them who they are. In Eighteen Years: Seth, you will be immersed into the life of a foster kid named Seth. The story is arranged so you, as a reader, can jump to different times of Seth's life so you can build upon your knowledge of what Seth has been through as well as glimpses into the paths Seth still has to endure. You will know what Seth has been through in his life and how it shaped who he was, and who he is.

You will be on an emotional roller coaster as you live Seth's life as a foster kid. You will experience the hopelessness and drain of not having his own family, his real mom; followed by friendships and caregivers that give him hope. You will see the beauty of people in Seth's life that give him love and support, but then you will see the reality of abuse and extreme loneliness as well. All lives are tough, but wait until you learn about Seth's and what he overcomes and what he becomes!

We all have a story-a complex story. I hope that as you read Seth's story, you will look at each character and ask yourself, "I wonder what has made them who they are." It is an exercise I believe we all should learn to do in real life. There is so much that makes each of us who we are. The people and their own stories, our environment and circumstances, and the influences are endless. Get to know people, invest in their stories, and understand their stories. Hopefully, that may change your story!
