FamilyForward Helps Kids Be Kids
By the time Kevin turned 12, he was an adult in a kid’s body. The oldest of three siblings, he assumed the role of caregiver because of his parents’ substance abuse and neglect. Kevin was responsible for finding food, sometimes from a nearby trash bin, and making “meals” for his siblings. He was in survival mode.
