I never met my dad. Well, that's a lie. I've met him a couple times when I was kid. But not enough time to actually get to know him. To this day. I'm not even sure if he's still alive. But I understand this much *thumb and a few inches apart finger* of this sense of separation.

I wouldn't rush it based off some paranoid idea that the world might end tomorrow and it will be too late. And even if that is the case, then it won't matter anymore anyways.
The right time is up to you. Its not something anyone else can tell you. If you feel you're ready and strong enough and mature enough, then now is the time. If you don't think you're quite up to it, then now is not the time. Just don't rush it or push yourself, or let worries about the end of the world cloud your rational judgement. Just take your time and be positive when you decided to do it.

I would wait till i got a handle on things. as in feel independent. like you don't need to try to cling to him for ANY reason. 18 is a good age cause you can do just about anything on your own. You're in foster care for a reason. I've never been put into that situation before though. i hope someone can give you better advice.

As a men myself, i just can't understand why some men could be so IRRESPONSIBLE. They have their fair share of enjoyment But refused to take the responsibility of facing the concequences. If you wish, you may take legal action against your dad/mum for neglacting their responsibilities towards you. Teach them a lesson on responsibility. Meanwhile, just to let you know that there are many people out there (me included) who are CRAVING for a child of their own.

As a christian regardless of our situation, God had instructed us (children) to honor our parent. in my opinion, this would mean to love our parent, to take care of our parent when they are old and to respect them. In your situation, pray to God asking God to show you His way for you.

At your age now, you should have someone to guide you in life, how to make right decisions in life that delight our lord, to be your confident when you are confused in life. I'll pray for you that God will send someone to you. GOD BLESS.
