Dear Santa,
I don’t mean to complain, but I’ve asked you for the same thing every year since I was four. And when you bring me anything, it’s only chocolates and oranges and cheap toys from China. I don’t need another fidget spinner this year, okay?
Anyway, I don’t know where else to turn. I’m twelve now and they just moved me to a group home. No one ever gets adopted from a group home. So you’re basically my last hope.
If I’m really REALLY good this year, would I finally deserve a new set of parents?
Trevor stared at the words. He couldn’t think what to write next. Not that it mattered. Maybe Byron was right—he was a bit babyish. A letter to Santa Claus? Really? What was he, six? He needed to grow up and face the realities of the world. The group home was where kids like him went when no one knew what to do with them anymore. When no foster family would take them in, or there were none left to try.
He lashes out. Can’t make a connection with him. We’ve tried everything. Don’t feel safe. We can’t handle him.
The overheard excuses in the voices of Foster Parents Past rang in his ears.
He folded the paper and stuffed it in his backpack.
