These are memories of a child growing up in a state institution for at-risk children. The accounts are true, to the extent they can be remembered. The names are fictitious. The accounts herein can give the reader some insight into the trials and jubilation of children growing up without parents, but in a caring institution. The happier times are recalled in a humorous tone. The not so happier times speak for themselves. The story is of only one child who spent his entire childhood in this institution, from four to seventeen years of age. He worked at the institution for a short time, which gave him added insight into the home staff and the institution itself. The story was written in hopes the institution will always be remembered. Thousands of children owe a debt to the institution, one that can never be repaid.
