keep her younger sister out too. I don't blame her. The thought of being sent to some random place with no say in it would have me considering living in a box until I finished school. There is no guarantee that the foster parents are going to be decent.
The people who try to protect kids are overworked. There is no guarantee that they will help if there is a problem.
I hope she gets the help she needs from someone in the community. Maybe someone she knows will step up and help out with living arrangements.
If they were remanded to foster care, she would probably go crazy worrying about her sister especially if they weren't together. The last place they need to be is caught up that bureaucratic web of no return.
