NOT THE NORM BUT ENCOURAGING TO KNOW


There are many pros and cons of the child welfare system regarding foster care, etc. and, in my work in Massachusetts in Child Requiring Assistance cases, these pros and cons are pretty much self-evident because there are just no guarantees on the future.

But actor Barry Keoghan received an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor nomination for his role in the 2022 film The Banshees of Inisherin. And according to Wikipedia:

"Keoghan was born on 18 October 1992, and grew up in Summerhill, Dublin, Ireland. His mother struggled with drug addiction throughout her adult life and died when he was 12. With his brother Eric, he spent seven years in foster care, in 13 foster homes before they were raised by their grandmother, aunt, and older sister Gemma."
