Adrenaline
When kids in foster care crash and burn...
Kids in foster care can have difficulties that are of their own making.
They sometimes create crises when no apparent problems exist.
.
Though not a doctor or social worker, I am going to offer one possible explanation.
The term 'adrenaline addiction' exists because there are adrenaline addicts.
.
Some people accidentally learn about adrenaline, and then do things that produce an adrenaline rush.
Many children are now being trained to become adrenaline addicts by the sports and videos they are introduced to.
.
That fact established, I am going to claim this:
The biohome lives of children, now in foster care, were often loaded with adrenaline-producing events.
Beatings, abandonment, sexual abuse, lack of shelter and hunger; all the things that put children into foster care,
will certainly trigger the production of adrenaline.
.
Long story short, foster care is loaded with young adrenaline-addicts that need to be understood and managed.
The craving for adrenaline is what causes some of the bad decisions made by kids in foster care.
.
Instead, maybe a ride on the area's scariest roller coaster?
Thank you for listening.
