News at Eleven: "My foster mother said,

'You don't love us, do you?' I said, 'Well, I do.' She said, 'Go away and think about it and come back tomorrow.' I studied the Bible and came up with what I thought was a perfect answer, which was that I would be able to learn to love them. I thought it was like a biblical story, having to go away and find the answer. [. . .]" [--Lemn Sissay]

from The Times: Growing up in care: I felt like somebody's experiment
