My Life With 40 Parents: Raised by Many, Claimed by None

What happens to children who grow up in foster care and are never adopted? In My Life With 40 Parents, Christopher Brooks shares a deeply personal account of a childhood spent moving through forty foster homes, group homes, and institutions. Raised by many, claimed by none. He came of age inside a system designed to be temporary, learning how to adapt, endure, and still find moments of connection amid constant change. With honesty and care, Brooks reveals the emotional realities of long-term foster care. Both the quiet losses that accumulate over time: siblings separated, homes that don’t last, rules that change without warning, and constant feelings of abandonment and rejection. As well as the flashes of kindness and compassion that shaped him along the way. My Life With 40 Parents is both a story of growing up without permanence and a reflection on finding joy, peace, prosperity, and happiness amid constant chaos and change.
