A Story Untold: An Adolescent’s Journey of the Scottish Care System

Who Am I?I am a human.With a past, a present, a future.A life story.But who's story is narrated?‘The subject’ has requested to star….in the memories and moments, in the ‘organizations’ script…so far.Gatekeepers, facilitating the articulation of risk assessments and wrongdoings, incidents and accidents, labels, and concerns.Filtered, boxed, staged. No context assembled or real memories made.Deciding character, from scribbles on a page.My ‘records’ merely collected to ensure that when inspected gold stars are handed out.
