something is wrong when the child is removed from the home instead of the abuser being removed. her dad should have gone to prison forever. its also a shame how the govt treats those children in its care. Thank God for her family that took her in as one of their own. that has made the diference in her life.
Why do you think her father escaped prison time?
I wish that could happen but I think we need to ask more questions about the mother/father that the parents accept the abuse being perpetrated.
I really with they could stay in safe environments but the parents are given so many opportunities to choose their children over partners and their children’s well being. Some biological parents just consider the child as second in line to their lives

Exactly my point !
Absolutely amazingly young woman. A lesson for all social workers, and care professionals. It's always been known that children in care have more issues, hopefully, a better solution to removing children is found, education, support and greater understanding of family dynamics can lead to better solutions. Too often the care service don't see the results of their actions, this video should be essential viewing and part of training. You are a star Rebecca.
This is a fantastic documentary I hope everyone sees this and understands more
just found this and as I'm in care myself I find this heartwarming well done rebbecca :)
I’m not sure where you are in your journey but I hope you are thriving. I can’t imagine how hard this is for you and I’ve seen many people go off the tracks or make more of an exemplary life than I’ve ever seen.
I’ve see it’s five years since your post and I don’t know where you are in your journey but I want to remind you that you are the driving force in your life. Anything you achieve is all down to you and nothing in life is handed to you.
I’d love to hear what’s going on with your life now and I really commend your bravery and hardship being abandoned by a system who should care xx
Such a dark subject but 2hat an absolutely lovey young lady who made the the video and who also presented it, HER talents in film and documentary making will go far by the quality of this documentary that she made well done t👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Rebbecca, I m in the middle of my assessment to foster care and found your documentary . Thank you , I will keep that in my heart and try to apply to long term foster care! I was encouraged to give a home and not a placement to someone! Lots of love Vee
Much respect to you Rebecca, stay golden, thank you.
Really feel for these young people, I too had a rough childhood, I'm 48 now, & it still affects me. Especially atm, as we've got major issues as a family
well done for being so so brave to do this documentary
Inspirational work Rebecca, proud of you as a fellow care leaver and I will be using this documentary within my research project focusing on the social and financial inequalities faced by care leavers
This documentary is excellent! Keep up the good work Rebecca Southworth! So proud of you! Care should provide counseling and have a class to teach life skills and work skills to help kids transition to adulthood. Welfare is not the answer. Such a sad situation.
I've come out of care, turned 20 and things are really hard, I had no idea
I hope you are managing ok Michael.
I work in care. It’s very difficult when kids turn 17 we have until then to get them ready and train them to be independent. It’s very hard because a lot times they don’t go along with it and they often aren’t ready. I think they should be given more time. But I’ve had a lot ok kids leave and do really well.
Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Your effort is appreciated, and your documentary is excellent.
I have worked with many young children who have gone into foster care and even as a baby being rescued by the social services the damage is usually already done. As the brain is forming any negative and traumatic experiences changes neurological pathways. The brain is brilliant at trying to mould to a situation and will do anything to survive if that is violence or disconnection then the brain will do this. I have seen so many children who get moved into stable homes and even with the care and support of really good foster carers the children will end up in the same situation they would have been in had they have actually stayed in the abusive situation. The film maker who is a lovely young lady will also have major psychological pain and trauma and I hope she is getting councilling as she appears to be one of the few that can cope and mask the pain. I hope she continues to push towards having a normal life.
I was in care then got adopted by a family that were abusive to me so I have a lot of issues now. There isn't any support I have been told that I need therapy but it's not funded and is very expensive so I just manage. I have managed to hold a job for three years now though, you have to stay strog and forgive yourself for not being able to do some things as well as people raised in a loving environment, love to everyone who's been through this, you are worthy.
There is funding for adopted children it’s like a trust, I’ve used it but I can’t remember how you access it x
This is a really valuable documentary. Would Love to know how your interviewees are doing, their voices (and yours) are important.
Beautifully constructed. I was surprised about the homeless statistic. May our Good God help send people to share His love with those who need it most. I look forward to my new career path in the foster care field. This video gave me a lot of insight. A+ 🙂🌻
I think councils need to listen and act and support better
Thank you for sharing this. Very heartbreaking.
This is an amazing doc. You guys did an amazing job.
Me and my siblings physically abused , we were beaten to submission, as I child I thought abuse was normal but as child , teen , I had suffer though my sister and brother knew that this was happening but they did nothing about it ,I just like they suffered when they were my age
Brilliant keep up the good work. My son isa foster carer and I will make sure he sees your video xx

Lily allen song at the beginning haha
The house nextdoor to me is owned by a company called CCP which is super to help people in care to live independently with help, before they leave and are in the world on their own.
The first girl was underage and had a boyfriend living with her (who shouldn’t of been) who had been arrested several times for SA-ing underage girls- the company did nothing and we only found out because the girlfriend was being extra loud on the phone.
Now this time we had 2 girls living there, until last week when they had a full scale fight on the front lawn and both were attacking the carer who tried to stop it. One has had 0 help (unless it’s from us) and the other openly admitted she had a row with her mum, knew her friend was living in the house nextdoor so moved herself in! The company aren’t doing anything to help support the people they have moving in. CCP just want the pay cheque it comes with. The current tenant was moved in and told the house was deep cleaned and the bed with mattress was brand new- it had a flea infestation and they were being bitten to bits, along with the carer. Head Office (Maya the managers name is!!!) lied and said it was just flies. We gave the girls 2 brand new mattress and a bed frame
❤what an amzing young ladie
Update 2023
Disgusting system for these people I hope there alright now
😢😢😢
I agree its fucking disgusting councils need to pin back their lug holes, listen and stand up to their responsibilities
😢
Jesus christ....the victim is punished and the perpetrators go free....what the hell is wrong with this world
Where was the Mother and extended family?????
Bloody disgusting and outrageous 😢
It’s always sadly been that way . Even when the family have left a perp , there’s still for many a long road ahead to prove the child is best left with the parent whom left the perp
What ever happened to Coral?
Who knows probably with the way the system is nothing good
Nothing makes sense in my life
So Coral was crying that she had no place to sleep and had no food. Yet she said she was going to drink wine/ Where did the wine come from? Then she said it is not her that is the problem. So can not afford food but somehow got her hands on wine. Would not want that attitude in my house. I remember as a teen I was taught about setting priorities if I wanted to succeed. They should be educated about setting up priorities and not doing stupid crap like spending money on non essentials while you are homeless.
She's 17 and from a broken home(plus thrown into system that cares more about how they can save money), we dont give a rats ass if you *think* you could do better her situation is entirely not her fault. Please drop me your address so I can politely break your pretentious fingers and keyboard.
Don’t use being in care as an excuse to commit crime.
I was in care when I was young but I got a job when I was older enough and moved on in my life instead of dwelling on the past.
Too many people I met when I was young, used the fact that they come from a broke home as a reason to break the law. It’s nonsense.
most people try. were you always emotionally functioning or did you need to be taught coping skills and find medication to help with racing thoughts and adrenaline over minor inconveniences because i struggle a lot but before people point out behaviours how can they fully grasp their behaviour you don't leave a abusive home with manners and social skills and emotional development
Wtf happened to squatters rights ?
:’( :’( :’(
homeless, can not afford rent, yet being very picky as to where his free flat could be and had to take a break to smoke. What did the cigarettes cost? hard to feel sorry for Liam when he thinks he can choose the free city and seems to be able to afford cigarettes.
And do you enjoy wine? Meals out? Clothing when needed? Why should they be different just because they are living on limited money?
@@tarawells1553 I work to pay for the extras in life. If I could not afford the basics then I sure as hell would not be buying meals out or wine. It is about maturity and not being a leach.
LETS NOT FORGET...THERES NO BAD CHILDREN JUST BAD PARENTS
