A few quotes that struck me:

(CN food)

“i dont like hot dogs. i eat them every week.”

“I have a key to my dads house, and my friends house. i dont have a key to my own house tho.”

I encourage my readers to go check out her full post! I think too many of us don’t understand what life in group homes and institutions is actually like.
