going alone with my case worker for the first time today!! I'm so nervous... i legit just met this guy Friday for the first time.... WTF ARE WE GOING TO DO?
I hate that so many older people look at bullying as some sort of “right of passage” as if everyone has been raised in a home where their older siblings roughed them up to teach them how to fight. Or as if every childs parents taught them to defend and speak up for themselves. Regardless it’s wrong and nobody is looking after these kids, they put up a “no bully zone” sign outside like that does something and it doesn’t. As someone who has experienced bullying and witnessed bullying in the classroom, it is EXTREMELY rare to see any kind of school staff actually speak up for the child and stop it. No principle, no teacher, no janitor, no vice principle, none. We need to protect these kids more cuz too many people are lacking.
Social Working 101 - Youth Work is Always Political.
I’m deeply convinced that my work as a social worker is as political as it can get. Yes, I work for the German country, and I have to follow some rules; comes with the territory. But I also think, that our job is the one point to really make a difference for young people.
1. You as a social worker are usually the first one who really cares about these people. Often their parents are rubbish and the police and the state don’t care either. There is no lobby for the interest of precarious teenagers.
2. Except you, of course. So let’s take this seriously.
3. You have to care about stuff like, racist shit that is happening on a daily basis to them. Or other discriminatory behavior that they are surrounded by. Maybe from teachers, parents, police, society, advertising, during the job search or in romantic relationships.
4. Make sure that they know that you are on their side. Stand behind them. Believe them.
5. If nobody tells you, that it’s not okay, what's happening to you, how should you learn to be an assertive, resistive, loud and independent person? Without anyone on your side, it’s hard. So let’s be on their side.
6. And that is fucking political. It’s political to stand up to your coworker who reproduces racist shit. If you hear a parent say homophobic stuff and you interfere. It’s political to go to your majors’ office and tell them if they close the youth center, or the skate park, or the $randomplacetheyliketohangout that the office is metaphorically going to burn.
Be the one grown up, you would have loved on your side as a teenager. Take them seriously. They are the experts on their own life - learn to listen to them.
Foster care case work is a lot of things. It’s not knowing what you’re doing, ever, but providing what you can for your kids and families. It’s driving two hours to see your kiddos who were psychiatrically hospitalized due to suicidal thoughts because of their past on your paid day off. It’s the court systems not listening to you and criticizing your work when they don’t really know what it all entails. It’s working with behavioral kids on a personal level and getting frustrated as if their your own. It’s getting more cases when you’re not even remotely ready for them. It’s realizing how terrible the system can be and still doing what you have to. It’s losing good workers because of bad management and picking up the slack for bad workers.
It’s also providing permanency, safety, support, love, and guidance for not only kids, but families, that didn’t have it before the system stepped in. It’s the kids who had a bad life thank you for saving them. It’s hugs for comfort, thankfulness, or just joy. It’s reuniting families and rejoicing for parents who fought so hard against their inner demons.
It’s almost never easy and I think I have more bad days than good, but the good ones have SUCH good that they keep me going through the bad.

Compassion fatigue feels like my heart is dry heaving.
Single mother Gwen AU
in this AU David is Max’s Caseworker and hes struggling to find a good family to put him, David has been max caseworker for 3 years which is probably the longest Davids gone without finding a child a good home. Over the years hes developed a fondness for max. Which is problematic because David cant just focus on Max he has other kids he need to help.
Max cant live with David because hes his caseworker but he was lucky enough to convince Gwen to to be his temporary foster parent just until he can find a better home for him.
IN this AU Gwen was a psychiatrist but lost her practice now shes bouncing form job to job. occasionally Gwen helps out David when shes tight for cash and take in one of his foster kids. Gwen takes in Max as a favor to David so he can work on his other cases and not have to worry about Maxs well being
Writing Update 2/6/18
I’m going to try to do this every Monday when I usually write my goals, but yesterday ended up being a wonky day and I never got to writing stuff. In part because of some ptsd issues, and in part because of a migraine. Ugh. Anywho, I’m functioning at the moment so here’s the update ;)
Last Week’s Goals:
1. Butt in chair writing 5 days or more: I made it five days this week. I knew my streak of doing seven days in a week was gonna end at some point XD 2. Short Stories: Complete and post at least one of the active stories. Finish initial drafts on the other two. Yeah, this didn’t happen. I did write two pages of notes for another idea though >_> Oops. 3. The Quake: Fix the end of pt. 7, write pt. 8 I needed to talk to my brother to figure out one bit, but once that was done I got both of these done, and even made a few notes for the next two scenes! 4. Life stuff: Make some progress on the list every day. Eh, kinda? But the days I didn’t were because some of the previous days kiiiinda broke me so I needed to rest and recover. Which is important too so I’ll take it.
This Week’s Goals: 1. Butt in chair writing 5 days or more: (can you tell this is a constant goal?) 2. Short Stories: Complete and post at least one of the active stories. Finish initial drafts on the other two. 3. The Quake: write pt. 9 and pt. 10 4. Life stuff: Get desk ready for my brother to work on, catch up money stuff, and meet with a case worker on Thursday for help with some paperwork stuff (eeeek!) I’m really nervous about the case worker thing. I guess she’s a social worker type person, and the goal is to get help with some of the stuff I need to get done and take the stress off. But the initial meeting is freaking me out. Loverly. I can’t decide if I’m more scared it won’t end up helping at all or overwhelmed that it will and that will mean yet more changes in my life. Alrighty. Enough about me. What are your goals right now?
