Here We Go Again

Kayden has done this before. The bin bag. The welcome speech. The new room that isn't home yet. This is move number four, and Kayden has stopped expecting it to be the last.Here We Go Again follows Kayden through a new placement, a new school, and all the things that come with being a young person who has lost count of their moves: testing the staff to see who'll actually stay, carrying a shoebox of everything that matters because bags have gone missing before, and slowly, cautiously, letting someone in again.Woven through Kayden's story are honest, practical "Real talk" sections covering the questions young people in care actually ask - their rights when a placement ends, how to push back on a file that doesn't tell the whole story, what exploitation can look like, and why none of this is proof that they're the problem.Whatever home number this is for the reader - third, fifth, or one they've lost count of - this book says plainly what too few people say to them directly: it was never their fault, and it is not the whole story.
