Abstract
I discuss the excessive toys and presents that were expected to make up for the lack of affection in my first foster home. I compare life at home to life in care using money and love as a theme. My foster parents at the time spend a year continuously reading my diary and sharing its contents around their family. I share my feelings of alienation into the diary as the family continues to pull away from me. I am then asked to leave with two days' notice.
