Michael recently entered kinship care alongside his younger brother after experiencing abuse and serious safety concerns at home. As he adjusts to a new environment, his brother by his side provides important comfort and connection. Despite the difficult circumstances he has faced, Michael deserves the chance to enjoy being a kid, explore new interests, and make happy memories.

Michael has experienced situations where he had very little control over what happened around him. This book would help him build the knowledge and confidence to make decisions for himself. From managing money and setting healthy boundaries to understanding emotions, recognizing unsafe situations, and handling everyday responsibilities, Michael would have practical guidance he can turn to whenever he needs it. Learning these skills could help him feel more secure, independent, and prepared for life’s challenges while reminding him that he has the ability to shape his own future.
