I was the manager of this home at the time this video was made and can assure everyone this is real and fact and the two main young men in this video are now adults and making good lifes for themselves.
I was put in a care home in 1967-68. My mother was to blame, and okay, so be it, but she never visited us, all 4 of us. My Gran visited us when she could, and tried to get us out as soon as possible. We had no father, so life was pretty tough. The childrens home them days was very tough, the food was terrible, and you lived in fear of the staff. It was the worst part of my life, but I never forgot. I was only about 6 yrs old at the time. While were in the home, me mother was continuing to mess about with all different men, even after being married 4 times. If not for our Gran, God bless her, she was a true loving and devoted woman who would give any one her last penny..I don't think we would of pulled through in life without her. The childrens home made me more dertermined though to become a stronger and independent person. I joined the army, to see the world and toughen me up, it worked, although I found it so hard at times, I stuck with it, and now I am on top of my life. Keep off drugs, follow your dream job, find a partner who loves you as much as you love them, and try not to look back and just go forward. And finally take care of your self in health and well being, then I promise you will have awsome life once you get out of there.
I was in the system back in the 80s in Connecticut U.S. Age 10y to 17y . Moved from place to place alot like 11 or 12 homes. There was nothing considered abuse in these homes. We were slammed in chairs , yelled at ,arms twisted behind back,made to stand with nose on the wall while holding our arms up and out to the sides like a t. OH and the bullying and fighting from the other kids and the staff let it happen! I was told I was lucky to have come out with a head on my shoulders.For those in a good home god blessed you or luck is on your side.
the comments stress me, I'm 17 and I live in a care home for 12-18 year olds, I live with 3 other kids of different age, my room is pink and glittery and has many decorations in which my care home has paid for or even the staff has paid for because they genuinely do care, there is a real thing called supervised spends where they won't allow you to have cash in hand if you've been naughty, instead of just going out with mate its called "free time" we have window restraints on our windows in case we try to sneak out or we have sensitive kids who try to kill themselves by jumping out the top floor but the front door is always unlocked because I live in a care home, not a juvenile prison... kids come into care for different reasons whether its for their behaviour or they come from broken down homes, I get £58 a week for pocket money, clothing, personal needs and phone credit money and as I turn 18 this year they give me my own flat and pay my rent for me until I'm 21, care homes aren't that bad and in some care homes the carers generally do come in to work because they love kids not just for the money, I feel sorry for kids who are living in a bad care home and I feel like they shouldn't just sit there and do nothing about it when they can complain and write a report and get the house shut down and move to a different care home, a much better one where they'll be happy at, speak up and do something about it
Natalie Halvey every local authority is different. Your £58 a week isn't "pocket money" your £58 a week is setting you up for when you turn 18 and go on to job seekers and housing benefit. I'm not sure where abouts in the UK you live however I do know the care system don't pay your rent until you're 21, they offer support until you're 21. You'll get housing benefit and then you'll pay your other bills. With you being 17 you'll already know this but being a care kid, don't put more stigma and false information out because we're attacked enough by the press, and people of all different classes
+Chloe Foster listen,it's 4 am in the morning mate, and I never said the £58 is just all pocket money, I also included how it's for clothing, activities and wash things which pretty much explains how you have to budget that money for shampoo soap ect and things you need and the pocket money for what you would want, so please read what I said, I simply stuck up for care homes to be honest darling explaining how amazing my one is and plenty others are just as amazing too, and I understand you can't just write a complaint and get the house shut down, what I meant is if the house was that bad kids should feel as if they can write a complaint, talk to red 44 lady and ofsted, managers ect and then the house will be looked into whether it is fit enough or not and can actually be shut down IF it was that bad
Natalie Halvey do you mean Reg 44? It's never that simple, it's much easier and cheaper to move a child on that isn't happy rather than close an entire children's home. Just out of curiosity where abouts in the U.K. do you live?
Good luck to you my wish is that by the time you grow up there will be no care home but a reformed system to support the most vulnerable kids in society. Such as parents who genuinely loves children and can offer an additional space in their home where the child would be equally able to thrive as any other child. Care home in my opinion are just no longer fit for purpose 🙃 that's was my opinion. Take care
love to foster a young person one day I have so much love and time to help and I really do care about giving someone a stable long term home bad times and good I wont give up the purson
2 everyone saying this is fake. Its not fake i was in a residential care home for 6 years and i was treated very well and the staff made me feel at home
Small units are better, when i worked in residential child care it was myself looking after 16 kids aged 12-17, Kids used to play up just to get attention from staff, 7 of the kids were under EPO's. Had a 13 year old boy move to residential school was informed "he's not our problem anymore" he was only 13...decided to leave the post 5 days later, the system was failing these kids.
When I went to residential, our home looked like a hospital and our rooms look like a janitors closet, it's a lot stricter, and we can't watch tv, we can't eat what we want, the food tastes like school Lunch, and the staff are rude....
I've been in an assessment recovery house, a behavioural difficulties home like this and now in a specialist residential school for Aspergers syndrome and complex needs. I've only been in care for like 10 months.
this is a very, very small amount of residential care homes. or else maybe just ones in england, maybe they're regulated better.. but this is NOT the reality 90% of the time. residential care homes are horrible, horrible institutions that set children up for a life of crime and failure, it is expected of them to wither away into nothing so they are treated completely sub-human. I resent this representation if it isn't true, but if it is I'm glad at least ONE home is as nice as this. a lot of young people (including myself) are left with severe and sometimes irreversible emotional damage/problems after being through the system. it took me a year to even repair myself to the point in which I could go out and socialize with people and attempt to build a new life, I isolated myself entirely and fell even further into the depression I had been experiencing in care in the first place. this in turn pretty much eradicated my social skills and I lost myself entirely. when you try to reintegrate into society with people who have never experienced what it's like to be institutionalized for most of your teenage years and/or childhood it throws you off completely. you have to readjust and learn how to act normally after being conditioned to act like the "rabid animal" that most staff/social workers think you are/treat you like. even at 18 now I'm still struggling deeply with relating to others and being myself and even knowing who I am, what my worth is or what the point even is in trying to grasp my way back up to the level of others. I hope people don't see this video and assume that life in a care home is a beautiful dream because it is a horrible fucking nightmare and that's the cold hard truth of it! I apologise for the long rant but I really and truly feel the care systems around the world are in need of reform, and if people keep thinking that it's rosy and dandy inside these horrible, cold places then it'll never change.
When i was 5 years old my father took me from my mother with her conscent, to live with him and his new wife. It quickly bacame apparent to me that she took an instant dislike to me, more like hatered. She had four children of her own. Anyway the abuse started off almost immediately making me stand in the corner of the room facing the wall for absolutely no reason that a five year old child would understand anyway. The days went on with low level mental abuse, well to a five year old boy it was devastating. My father was a long distant driver so all this abuse took place when he was out, but he could see that I was unhappy there. So her four children started to bully me and attacked me in the house. They had a dog that use to nip me, and they would all just laugh. I started to hear her mother say to her, "Why don't you just dump him somewhere." So after a year of mental tourment at the hands of everyone in that house, she finally decided to take her mothers advice and dump me on the street I was only 6 years. So Social services placed me with a foster family but after a year the moved me to a children's home. That was a blow to me because I became part of a loving family. When I was 8 years old they moved me to another children's gome where I stayed for 8 years. I left the children's home when I was 16, then they moved me to another children's home for a year, then when I was 17 they moved me to an half way house to get me use to an independant life. I left the care system as I went in feeling alone, worried, & affraid. Of course i have not put every awful experience in this post. Thank You.
So sorry to hear this and what you have gone through. That’s awful what his new wife did, they didn’t deserve you. You seem strong and i hope you don’t feel lonely anymore
Many years ago they tried to put me in this chirrunz home called 25P (short for parkhurst road) in friern Barnet north London, but I just kept absconding - I never even spent one night there
I would like to add my opinion that are based on experience of growing up in care homes, and while some young people like these places, I would say it's because they prefer it to foster homes or possibly an abusive family home, in my opinion these care homes are HELL, the system that runs these homes are designed to cover the arses of the owners...legally. there is a massive dark side to these places and this industry, in terms of 'keeping young people safe' they take away your freedom, for example, I could not go out without a staff member escorting me even to the shop, I couldn't go out with friends or even a walk for some fresh air without having to ask permission and i' d say 8 times out of ten I would be told 'we don't have enough staff to spare. not to mention my money was controlled and what I spent it on was controlled e.g if there was a jacket I liked that was 40 pounds, and I had 60 from my clothing allowance, I would be told I couldn't but it because one jacket would take up most of the allowance, then there is the staff who genuinely don't care about You, it's just a job, then there is staff who would use the power they had over you to bully you and pick on You, I could go on for hours writing about the bad and good about these places but trust me, it's no life for anybody esp young people, please bare in mind that unless it's a council/government run home, it's a business, and because it's a business it's profit and law above all else even if it takes away certain liberties fRom young people, please don't think that because these videos like this show good aspects you can find in these homes, there isn't a darker side and a darker greater aspect to the picture, as for the social services and the system that dictates them...dont get me started
Div Houston thanks for sharing your experience I’m a mum of a beautiful 14 year old daughter who is in a residential care home in Birmingham called positive pathway Thank you for sharing it’s good to know some of the things you mentioned
Hey Div, really sorry to hear you had such a tough time in your care home. I just wondered if you wouldn't mind sharing some of the examples you had of staff picking on kids or bullying them?
I'm most likely going to go into a care home soon maybe even next week but my parents dont know yet but childline are going to talk to social services again on monday morning but they already have me registered as someone in a violent home but i was wanting to see how some care homes are now and what people think about them and this has actually made me feel a bit more ready for going into one because im pretty sure i will soon but i kinda had to explain to the person i was speaking to that if my parents find out that i told them then im dead but yk
We are lucky to have residential care homes and womens refuges to rescue us and help us to escape our abusers and get our lives back on track in a normal routine
It depends the child in question. A lot of children from an abusive or neglected background or even attached kids wont respond to a punishment such as a time out or privilege withdrawal, so they may need to do something called positive disapline where building connection with the child comes before the teaching. Its important to rebuild the pathways and emotional connections to build and maintain positive relationships so children can learn and experience this is a safe environment
Interesting. I was in a young people’s unit many years ago. However it were ok in some way though I was bullied as I’m visually impaired and have mild learning issues autism aspergers autism though I’m a big guy but I were vulnerable. The staff did NOTHING and I were the incident one as the rest of the residents were pure criminals, drug addicts, alcoholics and brought on their own problems.
Painting over the graffiti was an ideal 'punishment', a slap on the wrist from the police does nothing for youngsters like this, they don't get disciplined, they're not given guidance on how to behave correctly.
You only get sent away it you been in trouble or if your parents have had enough with you and your behaviour and that they will just sent away to a care home

As someone who grew up in care from the 1970,s until I was 16 it was no joke or fun we didn’t have the technology or tvs in our room
I'm gonna be a care worker in one of these homes when I'm older
I hope and believe I will be too. I really care about our most vulnerable members of society being able to have a good quality of life.
You both have such brilliant attitudes.
Good luck to you my wish is that by the time you grow up there will be no care home but a reformed system to support the most vulnerable kids in society.

I was in rest bite for 2-3 years.
Best times of. My childhood
Thx now I'm ready for the care home that I'm going to
This was real. All homes we have been in are different. That was the reality of this one.
It’s so heartbreaking that these places exist and that families have so much mess and difficulty.
When I went to residential, our home looked like a hospital and our rooms look like a janitors closet, it's a lot stricter, and we can't watch tv, we can't eat what we want, the food tastes like school

How was it?
It's different here in Ireland, but a lot of the stories are the same with me. I used to think the same bout mine too tbh, it's all grand now tho
I’ve been in care 5-18 I’ve been in good homes
I did work experience in a care home exactly like this!!

how to the staff respond to a teenager who continuously breaks rules and come home late?
It depends the child in question. A lot of children from an abusive or neglected background or even attached kids wont respond to a punishment such as a time out or privilege withdrawal, so they may need to do something called positive disapline where building connection with the child comes before the teaching. Its important to rebuild the pathways and emotional connections to build and maintain positive relationships so children can learn and experience this is a safe environment
I’m in Residential care.. it kinda sucks but whatever, haven’t really got a choice. :\
I hope you are ok.
I need to go there
I live in a care home and it's nothing like this
They're all different that's why xx
How was your experience Adam?
I'm in treatment... Don't think this is what this video is describing though.
I'd like to work as a foster carer
I didn't think that young people in residential care would have bedtime limits??

Is it like Juvenile??
Interesting. I was in a young people’s unit many years ago. However it were ok in some way though I was bullied as I’m visually impaired and have mild learning issues autism aspergers autism though I’m a big guy but I were vulnerable. The staff did NOTHING and I were the incident one as the rest of the residents were pure criminals, drug addicts, alcoholics and brought on their own problems.
I'm in foster care
same :) x
hope your okay x
Chloe Stokes You are so lucky
Why you in care for
Painting over the graffiti was an ideal 'punishment', a slap on the wrist from the police does nothing for youngsters like this, they don't get disciplined, they're not given guidance on how to behave correctly.
