No one here is going to take you in at your age - would your parents sign custody over to strangers? Who is going to support you, pay your bills and tuitions? The people who "foster" you in the US?

Graduate from high school and either go to College in the UK and spend a semester or two in the US or TRY to get accepted to a US college.

Your dream is very impractical from several standpoints.

Well, thanks for your support!

So I have said, if somebody want know more of me, then I can explain more that.

Your sarcasm is totally out of line and unnecessary. The bold type is also an unnecessary touch.

I did try to support you. You are being unrealistic.

I notice you didn't answer a single question - will your parents sign, who will pay your expenses.

Ok, sorry. Yes, that's true but I haven't forgotten that question about the payments that but I don't like talk these things here, where everybody can see it. If you want, I can explain you more of all.
And yes, that's true that it's an unrealistic, but it isn't impossible.

How do you find it to be possible that total strangers will take you in and support you, be responsible for you legally, medically, financially, an ocean away from your home?

All questions are asked here; all answers are posted here. There are no side conversations.

And you might end up in a very bad place with a family that abuses you and/or turns you into a slave to do all the housework and refuses to allow you to go to school. You cannot "advertise" on the Internet and think you will end up making your dreams come true. The world is filled with very bad people. Like Judy said, go to a UK uni, do well there, and get into a program for overseas study as a foreign student or transfer to a US college for a year or so to find out if this country is everything you think it is. If that doesn't work out, once you are out of school, you can travel anywhere.

When I say that I'm looking for a family foster, I want to say that I am looking for a family foster who I can to trust in them. And, obviously the payments would do my parents.

And how do you think you will find a foster family you can trust?

Sorry If my english isn't so good.

I don't know, in this moment I don't know how I can find some foster families. Someone of you, can help me to find a foster family? Well, yes I know that It's so difficult.


Thanks for your support!

Sorry If my english isn't so good.


Your poor English doesn't mean there's no need for you to answer questions.

If your family intends to finance your adventure and sign custody of you over to strangers they must have the ability and means to hire someone to assist them in keeping you safe, placing you with a family that is safe and can be trusted.

Your English is fine. Please answer our questions. I think you are being very unrealistic.

There are programs throughout the world whereby families can join up, get acquainted online/by phone/by email/etc. and send their children to spend time with like-minded families in other countries for a short period, say, for a summer or for a school year. Have you investigated something like that? Schools have foreign exchange programs. Have you checked into something like that?

Ok, with that what you want say to me?

Yes, I know that all is going to be so expensive, but I am trying to find somee foster families.

Alike, thanks!

I did not say anything about money.

A girl your age advertising on the Internet will attract people with evil ideas. Your best bet (and safest) is to look for family or school programs where you live now. Have you done that?

Thanks so much wondergirl!

Can u tell me some programs that the families can know across telephone, email?
Yes, I see that programs, but I believe that in a short time, I won't can learn the american english.

I see a big problem with attitude - I suspect this is going nowhere.

YOU check in your country for family and foreign-exchange programs. You go to the library and ask a reference person about this and do research.

Yes, I see that programs, but I believe that in a short time, I won't can learn the american english.
Then WHY are you even asking us to help you??

You go to another country to immerse yourself in the language and learn it better and faster than you can in school. If I wanted to perfect my German, I would fly to Germany and live there for maybe some months or even a year and speak only German.

Wondergirl, thanks many people has said me the same thing. I think that I am going to do what you have said me.

And when you say on the Internet will attract people with evil ideas, you're so RIGHT. I think in that, but I thought that I was the one that thought that.


Hope you can understant me.

Carol (my name too), your English is understandable. Stop apologizing.

Now, do some research and please report back to me tomorrow. Okay?

Ok, I will look for programs, thanksss.

See u tomorrow, thankssssssssssss so much!

Also, learn British English very well. Spoken American English is sloppy and full of idioms and is often poor grammar. British English is beautiful. I always loved to listen to my Indian coworkers (British education) speak English.

Carol, I know that, I know that the British English is so good and so elegant, and obviously I know that the American English is so ordinary, but I love that language. Well, the British english and the American english are so nice to listen.

Now you have your assignment. Get busy and do your research at the library! Identify unis and colleges with foreign student programs. Find out names of UK organizations with family connections between countries.

I will be waiting.

Well, she is right in all the world, there are many people with evil minds.

Well, she is right in all the world, there are most people with evil minds.


I don't think most people have evil minds - I think you have to be careful.

Yes, also you're right.


Thanks for your support, Judy!

Yes, also you're right.


Thanks for your support, Judy!


Honestly, I hope it works out for you. As always Wondergirl has great ideas and suggestions.

You have ballet shoes on your profile. Are you a dancer?

Have you given any thought to ballet school or training in the US? I know the schools are difficult to get into but...

Yes, I think that, but here there are many people dance better than me, I'm a beginner in that.

But in this year, in my country I want reinforce my ballet, then I'd can be a good dancer and If it's possible, I want to get some schools in USA, but I believe that it is impossible.
