«Συγκρότημα τριών κατοικιών στην Εκάλη», Αθήνα, Ελλάδα / “Residential Complex In Ekali”, Athens, Greece [1999-2004] _ Αρχιτέκτων/Architect: Νίκος Κτενάς/Nikos Ktenas.
«Ο Νίκος Κτενάς [1960-2022] γεννήθηκε στον Πειραιά το 1960 και αποφάσισε να γίν��ι αρχιτέκτονας, κάποια χρόνια μετά, παρακολουθώντας την κατασκευή της Μαρίνας Ζέα στην καθημερινή του διαδρομή προς το σχολείο, από την οδό Φιλελλήνων μέχρι την οδό Σηραγγείου. Απόφοιτος αρχιτεκτονικής του πανεπιστημίου Cornell [Ithaca, NY, USA], σπούδασε, επίσης, στα New York University [NY, USA], Columbia University [NY, USA] και στην Cooper Union [NY, USA]. 
Ενεργό μέλος της σχολής του Ticino, μαθήτευσε, δίδαξε και συνεργάστηκε με σημαντικούς αρχιτέκτονες και εκπροσώπους του κινήματος, μεταξύ των οποίων ο Mario Botta και ο Luigi Snozzi, με τον τελευταίο να χαρακτηρίζει τον Νίκο Κτενά ως “υπόσχεση για την ευρωπαική αρχιτεκτονική”. Το 1987, ο Νίκος Κτενάς ιδρύει το προσωπικό του γραφείο στο Lugano της Ελβετίας και το 1993 στην Αθήνα, αντίστοιχα, μοιράζοντας τη ζωή και τη δράση του ανάμεσα στις δύο πόλεις.Υπέρμαχος της μοντέρνας αρχιτεκτονικής, των αρμονικών αναλογιών, των γεωμετρικών χαράξεων και του βιτρουβιανού προτάγματος Venustas – Firmitas – Utilitas (Αισθητική – Σταθερότητα – Λειτουργία), ο Νίκος Κτενάς αντιμετώπιζε την αρχιτεκτονική ως “ένα πεδίο έρευνας, με βασικότερο στοιχείο της τη διαλεκτική σχέση με τον τόπο”. Στην αρχιτεκτονική του πρώτο λόγο είχε το που και το πως τοποθετείται το κάθε κτίσμα εφόσον θεωρούσε πως “μια λανθασμένη σχέση με τον ευρύτερο χώρο ισούται μ’ ένα λανθασμένο αρχιτεκτονικό αποτέλεσμα.” 
Αναζητούσε και κατασκεύαζε, επίμονα, κάθε φορά, μια “δραματική σχέση” ανάμεσα στην αρχιτεκτονική του και τον τόπο, που θα την υποδεχόταν.Ιδιαίτερο ενδιαφέρον παρουσιάζει ο τρόπος που χειρίζεται, σχεδιαστικά, τα αντιθετικά δίπολα, κενό-πλήρες, εξωτερικό-εσωτερικό, δημόσιο-ιδιωτικό, δημιουργώντας απρόσμενους και δυναμικούς χώρους συνύπαρξης. Μορφολογικά, η αρχιτεκτονική του Νίκου Κτενά μπορεί να χαρακτηριστεί ως μια πρισματική αρχιτεκτονική από εμφανές σκυρόδεμα, που αναιρεί την έννοια της σκελετικής δομής, αγκαλιάζοντας την απλότητα και τις καθαρές σχεδιαστικές γραμμές, ενσωματώνοντας, ταυτόχρονα, στοιχεία από μέταλλο και ξύλο. Τα υλικά, που επιλέγει, κάθε φορά, “αποδίδουν στο έργο μια “δομική αλήθεια”, καθιστώντας έτσι εμφανή την “ηθική” διάσταση της αρχιτεκτονικής».

Acropolis Gardens, a historic residential complex in the heart of Astoria, Queens, is renowned not only for its architectural charm but also for the thoughtful amenities that cater to modern urban living. Built in 1923, the complex has evolved to meet the needs of today’s residents while maintaining its timeless appeal. From security features to communal spaces, Acropolis Gardens offers a range of amenities that make life more comfortable and convenient for its diverse community of residents.
Tumblr media
1. Video Intercom System: Enhanced Security and Peace of Mind
One of the most important amenities at Acropolis Gardens is the state-of-the-art video intercom system, designed to provide residents with an added layer of security. In a bustling city like New York, peace of mind is crucial, and this modern system allows residents to easily screen visitors before granting access to the building. Whether receiving deliveries or hosting guests, the video intercom offers an extra level of safety, ensuring that residents feel secure in their homes.
2. In-Building Laundry Facilities: Convenience at Your Fingertips
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is key, and Acropolis Gardens delivers with its in-building laundry facilities. No need to haul laundry to a nearby laundromat or worry about finding time to visit one—residents can take care of their laundry right within the comfort of their own building. The availability of on-site laundry facilities not only saves time but also makes daily life more efficient, freeing up residents to enjoy more of what Astoria has to offer.
3. Beautifully Landscaped Communal Gardens: A Tranquil Urban Oasis
Despite being located in the heart of a vibrant urban area, Acropolis Gardens offers residents access to beautifully landscaped communal gardens, creating a peaceful escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. These garden spaces are meticulously maintained, providing a serene environment where residents can relax, read a book, or simply enjoy the outdoors. Whether it's a morning coffee in the garden or a quiet evening stroll, the communal green spaces add a touch of nature to city living.
4. Pet-Friendly Environment: Welcoming Your Furry Friends
Acropolis Gardens is a pet-friendly community, recognizing that for many residents, pets are an important part of their family. With flexible pet policies, residents can enjoy the companionship of their pets without having to worry about restrictive rules. The surrounding neighborhood of Astoria is also home to numerous parks and green spaces where residents can walk their pets, adding to the overall appeal of the complex for pet owners.
5. Elevator Access: Convenience for All Residents
The five-story structure of Acropolis Gardens is equipped with elevator access, making it convenient for residents of all ages and abilities to navigate the building. Whether carrying groceries, moving furniture, or simply making daily trips up and down, the elevators provide ease of access to all floors, ensuring a hassle-free living experience for everyone. For families with young children, seniors, or anyone who appreciates convenience, the elevator is an invaluable feature.
6. Flexible Rental and Ownership Options: Catering to Diverse Lifestyles
Acropolis Gardens stands out by offering flexible rental and ownership options, accommodating a wide range of financial situations and lifestyle preferences. Residents can choose between renting a unit or purchasing one, with favorable ownership options like co-purchasing, allowing multiple parties to invest in a property together. These flexible arrangements make Acropolis Gardens accessible to a broader demographic, from young professionals and families to retirees looking for a secure place to settle.
7. Shared Community Spaces: Fostering a Sense of Belonging
Beyond its individual units, Acropolis Gardens places a strong emphasis on community living. The shared communal spaces, such as the garden areas, foster a sense of connection and neighborly interaction. Residents can socialize, organize community events, or simply enjoy the sense of belonging that comes from living in a well-integrated, welcoming environment. This emphasis on community helps create a unique atmosphere that distinguishes Acropolis Gardens from other residential complexes.
8. Proximity to Astoria’s Attractions: Convenience Meets Culture
While not a physical amenity within the building, the location of Acropolis Gardens is an amenity in itself. Situated in the culturally rich and lively neighborhood of Astoria, the complex offers residents easy access to an array of dining, shopping, and entertainment options. From world-class restaurants and trendy cafes to parks, museums, and shopping centers, everything you need is just a short walk or subway ride away. The proximity to the N and W subway lines makes commuting to Manhattan quick and convenient, making Acropolis Gardens an ideal home base for those who want to enjoy both city life and a peaceful retreat.
Conclusion: A Perfect Blend of Comfort and Convenience
Acropolis Gardens is more than just a residence—it’s a community that offers modern amenities tailored to the needs of today’s urban dwellers. From its advanced security systems and in-building laundry facilities to its serene communal gardens and pet-friendly environment, every detail has been carefully designed to enhance the quality of life for its residents. Add in the convenience of its Astoria location and its flexible rental and ownership options, and it’s easy to see why Acropolis Gardens continues to be a desirable place to live for individuals and families alike.
Whether you’re looking for a safe, secure home or a peaceful urban retreat, Acropolis Gardens offers the perfect blend of comfort, community, and convenience.

I am adding to this post and bringing some Japanese shows I don't think people are familiar with - at least for those who might have discovered Japanese media through Japanese bls - but that I personally really enjoyed (and that have some amount of queerness to them).
First, I gotta put this one here because it's so cute and it deserves a shoutout, and it's one of my favorites that I constantly rewatch:
Takara-kun to Amagi-kun - Takara and Amagi (Viki)
Tumblr media
Look at Amagi running away because he's flustered xD
Most people will know this one. It's a gem. It's idiot x idiot. And I love it so much that it has to be put somewhere on this post, so here goes. If you haven't watched this one yet, GO WATCH IT. It's cute, it's fun, it catches you with trauma by surprise (as Japan does) and it's happy.
It's a must watch for any J BL enjoyer.
Onto the actual list now
These recommendations are based on my tastes alone so I do not guarantee that everyone will like them. They're also, not perfect. However, I think these shows are worth checking out if you're interested in Japanses media. Particularly for those who are curious about how Japan challenges it's own society through media.
Ore no Sukaato, Doko Itta? - Where did my skirt go?
Tumblr media
Also know as OreSuka it's a typical unusual-teacher-comes-to-break-the-status-quo-of-the-school type of story. Harada Nobuo, a gay man who likes to cross dress as a woman, is hired as the homeroom teacher of a class of highschoolers and helps them "free" themselves. Since it's an ensemble cast, each episode is generally centerd on one student as they sort out their problems with the help of Harada. And I'm not revealing much more~
You might recognize one of the students, Michieda Shunsuke (as our bisexual disaster of a protagonist in Kieta Hatsukoi).
Otouto no otto - My Brother's Husband
Tumblr media
This one might be more well know in the bl fandom
Based on a manga by Gengoroh Tagame, this 3 episode series could be considered a story made by gays for straights. (I'm kinda curious about where this would fall in @wen-kexing-apologist By For and About categorization)
The story follows Yaichi, a divorced father, who one day recieves the visit of Mike, his estranged twin brother's canadian husband. His twin has recetly passed away and Mike is on a trip to get to know about his husband's origins, so he stays a few days in the house.
I would say this one enters into the "healing" genre (Iyashikei) that is very characteristic to japanese media.
Tonari no Kazoku wa Aoku Mieru - Residential Complex (Viki)
Tumblr media
A couple of newlyweds move into a residential complex they share with 3 other families, and cohabitating shenanigans ensue. The traditional family upstairs who live off the husband's salary has a secret: the husband just got fired. The man who's about to marry his second, younger wife, who doesn't want children, has a child from his previous marriage who will come stir up some trouble. The apparently single and private architect is secretly gay and his boyfriend has suddenly come live with him. And the newlyweds really want to have kids but are facing some difficultes.
I really like how this show comes to try to dismantle some of Japan's perjudices regarding what constitues as family. I don't want to spoil too much, but it gives a very good overview of how Japan generaly understands such things and how that way of thinking is wrong. It's also been made in contribution with an LGBT association iirc, which is pretty unique and cool.
Kamisama no Ekohiiki - God's Favor
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This show is based on a BL manga. It has changed quite a few things from the original, so the story they tell vary a little from each other. But it's a cute little show that talks about love, gender and youth. It has body swap shenanigans, childhood friends, lesbianism and overall teen angst.
Yashiro gets hit by a truck and dies right after getting rejected by his childhood friend Kenta. But thank's to God's favoritism he gets to be reborn as a girl, Kagura. As he tries to get close to Kenta once more but Kenta's ex-girlfriend, Rin, gets in the way. Also, Yashiro's body is not actually dead...
I personally really liked it. It's pretty cute and low budget.
Sixteen Shokogun - Sixteen Syndrome
Tumblr media
More teen angst 'cause Japan loves it. Another one that is a little weird and talks youth, gender, love and expectations. It tackles friendship, love, gender expression and sexual orientation and more teen angst. I don't really know how to explain this one so I leave you the blurb:
The tomboy Ibuki and her childhood friend Mei are known as the "Prince" and "Princess", respectively, of their school thanks to Ibuki always protecting Mei from men (as a result of a traumatic past). One day Asada Mutsumi, a popular guy, starts to seduce the "Princess" because of a bet, however he starts falling for Ibuki instead.
Teen angst shenanigans, with Yuutaro (Zenra Meshi, Cherry Magic) as part of the cast.
Ossan's Love (S1) (Viki)
Tumblr media
This might be an unpopular opinion, but it's my list 😛
Pure Japanese comedy and a classic. If you're not used to Japan's weirdness this one might very easily put you off. Haruta is a unsuccessful 33 year old who is looking for love. His mom ditches him and leaves the house so he ends up living with Maki, a younger co-worker who takes care of the house chores. One day he discovers that his boss, a serious man he respects and looks up to, has a Very Big Crush on him. Simultanously, Maki also confesses to be in love with Haruta. Not knowing what to do or how to handle the situation lots of funny shenanignas ensue in Haruta's not-anymore-peaceful life.
This one is very Japanese. Between the exagerated funny faces, the situational comedy, and tons of Japanese habits and mannierisms (such as avoiding making people feel bad/uncomfortable by rejecting them outright, or being too direct) it can be very weird for western viewers. If you've gotten used to Japan and have no trouble with the cultural differences, I really recommend this one (particularly before Returns the S3 that's actually S2 because the real S2 doesn't exist for me starts!)
and as a bonus:
Miss Sherlock
Tumblr media
This is a show I haven't finished yet but I am very curious about. Genre wise it has nothing to do with the other shows on this list because it's basically Sherlock Holmes in modern times, but women, and in Japan. Sherlock is acompanied by Wato-san in her detective endeavors. I heard it has a lot of the usual Sherlock/Watson subtext~~
Japan has a lot of very different shows, and I'm sure I've missed some more like these. But I thinks it's good to see what other not-so-BL-but-still-queer, or kinda queer, shows Japan makes. To me, the way they go about gender and how that affects sexuality is very interesting to see, particularly because of how it varies from our western pov.
Japanese BL Starter Pack
Tumblr media
It’s been awhile since I dropped a rec list, so I am here today to share one that is very near and dear to my heart—a Japanese bl primer for those who are new to the jbl game. I created this for @neuroticbookworm to help her on her journey when she decided she wanted to start getting into Japanese works. The fandom (on Tumblr and generally) tends to focus primarily on Thai shows because they are the easiest to access for international fans, since Thailand is working its way toward world domination via ql media and wants us all to be able to watch. But there is a lot of great stuff to watch beyond the easy access Thai channels, and Japan is the country where this genre originated, so its shows are important for anyone who considers themselves a bl fan. Japan doesn’t cater nearly as much to the international audience so tracking down the shows sometimes takes some ingenuity and can-do spirit, but that’s part of the fun!
And so, the list! Bookworm is about halfway through it and having a ball, so I figured it was time to stop hoarding it and share it with anyone else who would like to dip their toes into jbl and isn’t quite sure where to start. A few notes: 
I am not here to teach you about the deep roots of the jbl genre or give you a primer on yaoi manga. I am by no means an expert and there are other places to find that information. Start here with this great post by @nieves-de-sugui and then maybe wander over to @absolutebl to read up more on the evolution of the genre.
This list is by no means an exhaustive accounting of every important Japanese bl ever made; it is simply a nice sampler platter of the cream of the crop among various styles you will find in jbl. Watching through this whole list will not only expose you to some fantastic shows, but also give you a sense of what makes jbl unique and how the country’s style differs from others, and point you toward the types of jbl you’ll like most (they tend to put shows in pretty specific style and tone lanes and once you find the ones you like there are lots more where that came from). 
If you’re coming to this post as a jbl lover and you don’t see your favorite here, I promise it’s not because I don’t love it very much; I simply had to make some choices to get this down to a reasonable shortlist. Feel free to leave extra recs for others to find! 
I’m putting these in a loose suggested watch order that will take you through the various jbl lanes in a kind of popcorn style, because I always think it’s good to change it up so you don’t get too stuck in one mode, and it works its way up to most of the extremely Japanese stuff (you will know what that means by the time you finish). But do what’s in your heart and change up the order if you want, friends, I am not the boss of you! 
Cherry Magic (Crunchyroll or grey)
Tumblr media
gif by @liyazaki
I believe everyone on Tumblr is pretty familiar with this one, which is not a coincidence—this is one of the most accessible jbls. Not in terms of actual access to watch it, mind you (we’ve all jumped through shady internet hoops to watch it) but in terms of its content and style. Cherry Magic is a classic workplace romcom with a magical twist, and it is charming af. It’s a great exemplar of Japan’s light and zippy comedy lane for bl—a lane in which, importantly, the romances stay chaste even when the actual plot is about sex, or lack thereof. My friend @waitmyturtles would kill me if I didn’t make sure you know that Cherry Magic also has a lovely follow up film. And bonus: there is now a Thai remake airing so if you watch the original you can get in on the discussion about the different adaptations between countries. This is pretty easy to find these days in all the usual places, but I strongly recommend watching it here.
Old Fashion Cupcake (Viki)
Tumblr media
gif by @liyazaki
Moving on to a slightly more mature workplace romcom. Old Fashion Cupcake, another Tumblr favorite, is an age gap boss-subordinate romance, and it’s both very adult and somehow wholesome af at the same time. Sure, there is a lot of carnal desire going on here, but there is also a lot of wooing via fluffy pancakes. It’s a tight five episodes and a fantastic example of what Japan, with its extreme technical precision in writing, directing, editing, pacing, and acting firing on all cylinders, can do in two hours. There’s not an ounce of flab on this thing and you’ll want to watch it over and over again.
Utsukushii Kare (Viki)
Tumblr media
gif by @wanderlust-in-my-soul
Time to get a little weird! Weird is a key feature of Japanese media, and lots of jbls explore unusual relationship dynamics rooted in complex psychology. This is the first show on the list that will likely feel very Japanese if you’re new around here—my advice is to lean into it and finish the show, even if you get uncomfortable along the way. In Japanese media, discomfort always serves a purpose. This is a high school story with a twisted relationship at its center, and I’m not saying any more than that. Don’t spoil yourself and go watch it! This one also comes with two sequels—one short second season and one movie—that continue from the original story. They are less essential but still excellent.
I Cannot Reach You (Netflix)
Tumblr media
gif by @my-rose-tinted-glasses
Next up, another high school tale, but with a totally different vibe. This show is kind of a revelation in its willingness to tell a story about overwhelming desire—including sexual desire—with young protagonists. It’s rooted in a classic but often misunderstood trope, friends to lovers, and takes the angst of it seriously, giving us a low stakes story that feels extremely high stakes to our leads. It’s also gorgeous and uses a classic Japanese visual style (bokeh) that you’ll be dying to learn more about. 
His (Viki)
Tumblr media
gif by @gabrielokun
Time for a break from high school, and we’ll sprinkle in a movie for some added flavor. His is a jbl film featuring a second chance romance between a stoic, introverted man who moves to a remote town to start over, and his ex-boyfriend who follows him there unexpectedly, adorable child in tow. Importantly, this movie does not take place in what we often refer to as the “bl bubble” where homophobia doesn’t exist; the leads’ experiences of being gay men in a homophobic society are hugely important to the plot and themes of the story. It’s a beautiful film and I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched it. @bengiyo would surely also like me to tell you that this film follows a brief prequel show called His: I Didn’t Mean to Fall in Love about the characters originally meeting in high school; I do not think it’s really necessary to watch it but completists can start there.
The Pornographer series (Gaga)
By now you should be ready to get into some classic Japanese fucked up psychosexual material, right? Right! The Pornographer series is told in five installments in this order:
The Novelist, a six episode miniseries
Mood Indigo, a six episode prequel series
Spring Life, a 15 minute short
Pornographer: Playback, a two hour film
Spring Life Continued, a 15 minute short
Confused by that distribution model? So say we all; sometimes Japan likes to make us work for it to make sure we really appreciate its many gifts to us. The story across these installments is about a very difficult to love protagonist, what makes him the way he is, and the also-unhinged-but-in-a-different-way man who finally gets through to him. It’s an extremely satisfying love story and one of the best character arcs I have ever seen, full stop. For this one, you’ll want to just pull the word problematic out of your pocket and store it in a drawer; nearly everything that happens in this story is problematic and that’s the point. Lean in! All of these installments except for the film are on Gaga, if you get that far hmu and I will supply you with the final puzzle piece.
Our Dining Table (Gaga)
Tumblr media
You could probably use a break after those last two, so it’s time to shift over to a heart-tugging twofer: family trauma mixed with the cutest shit you’ve ever seen. ODT is an example of another classic type of Japanese show: the food drama (you will see the GOAT in this category at the end of this list). In Japanese culture, food is love, and the act of preparing food for your loved ones is a common path to romance. You’ll love this story about an isolated office worker who meets a pair of brothers, learns to cook as a way of connecting with them, and begins to heal from his own trauma as a result. The image above is a scan from the manga, which @troubled-mind curates to make extremely cool comparison sets like this one. Many jbls are faithful adaptations of yaoi manga source material, so it’s good to have a bit of familiarity with them.
Minato’s Laundromat (Gaga)
Tumblr media
gif by @liyazaki
Japanese media loves to explore taboo, and often manages to do it in a way that is surprisingly light and chaste. This is an age gap romance between a teenager and his adult neighbor that explores internalized homophobia, emotional repression, and falling in love across seemingly impossible social chasms. It’s also a great example of old school yaoi seme-uke dynamics that still show up across the bl genre. Also, take my advice: end your journey with this one with the first season and just pretend season 2 doesn’t exist.
Eternal Yesterday (Viki)
Tumblr media
gif by @wanderlust-in-my-soul
Remember what I said about weird? Time to do that again, but with a heaping dose of grief and pain on top. It’s not a spoiler to tell you this show involves a major character death; a major character death is, in fact, the root of the entire story. This is a magic realist tale of first love turned tragic, and it will hurt and heal you. It is one of my favorite dramas of all time.
Restart After Come Back Home (Gaga)
And now for a break for your poor exhausted brain. This film is basically the jbl version of a Hallmark original movie, about a city boy who goes back home to the country and falls in love with a total sweetheart while working together on a farm. Enjoy it, bestie, you’ve earned it! 
Tokyo in April Is… (Gaga)
Tumblr media
gif by @wanderlust-in-my-soul
You’ve probably noticed by now that emotional repression and failed communication are big themes in Japanese works. This second chance romance has plenty of both, and it’s a great example of a kind of muted emotional style that Japan does so well, where the surface of the story seems almost placid and calm even as deep emotion roils underneath. This one (and Eternal Yesterday above) are part of a special line up of jbls on Japanese channel MBS called Tonku (Drama) Shower. The shows air one after another in the same time slot on Fridays (in Japan, perhaps Thursdays for you depending on where you live) and you truly never know what you’re gonna get, but they’re all interesting. Warnings on this one for sexual assault and trauma. 
The End of the World With You (Viki)
Time for sexy and weird again, but even more so! This has to be one of the most unique bls ever made; it goes to some truly divine and strange places, and it feels incredibly queer while doing it. Made by the same screenwriter/director of the Pornographer series with a lot of the same sensibilities, but in a more heightened apocalyptic setting. This one has existential angst, a road trip, a redemption tale, and a variety of interesting side characters in the mix.
What Did You Eat Yesterday? (Gaga)
Tumblr media
gif by @my-rose-tinted-glasses
Congratulations, you’ve reached the end of the list and your reward is watching one of the best bls of all time, and a perfect slice of life food drama to boot. WDYEY now has two seasons (along with a couple specials and a movie that fall in between) because the universe clearly loves us. You can now get it on Gaga for easy access but I’m partial to the versions over at @kinounaniresource for better subs. Wherever you watch, settle in to get cozy with Shiro and Kenji and make sure to always eat before you hit play.

Revitalizing The Heritage Of Socialist Modernism: BACU’s Online Initiative To Protect Central And Eastern European Architecture
Preserving the monumental yet decaying structures of central and eastern Europe erected between 1955-91 is the mission of the online initiative, Socialist Modernism, created by the Bureau for Art and Urban Research (BACU). With an aim to revitalize this heritage, BACU believes in the significance of these elements which managed to defy some of the ideological requirements of their time, giving the urban space a distinct flavor characteristic of the socialist period.

Residential Treatment Facilities
In the state of Colorado, they decided they want to close down residential treatment centers across the state. Their goal in this, is to place foster youth with foster families instead of treatment facilities. As someone who grew up in foster care treatment centers, I have a couple thoughts about this. Hypothetically, this is good idea. Every kid deserves a loving family. What I don’t agree with, is pulling kids like me out of a traumatic situation and placing them with a family who are not trained or prepared to deal with aftershocks of trauma. I lived in an abusive house for 12 and a half years. When the state finally pulled me out, they placed me in a residential treatment center where I had access to 24/7 therapeutic services. Without those around the clock services, I would have committed suicide. I went through a phase where almost every day I was fighting to die. I did not want to be alive. If they had placed me in a foster home instead of a treatment center, I would have killed myself, and I would have burned out every set of foster parents they placed me with. You cannot expect foster parents to be able to handle a child with the amount of trauma and behavioral issues I had. That is a job for treatment counselors and therapists. I do not believe youth should be institutionalized to the point of not being able to function in a normal society, but I think youth need time and space to stabilize in a therapeutic setting before they are placed in a family. Otherwise, it will not work. You cannot expect parents to perform the same tasks as a therapist or a counselor. You have to pick one, you can’t be both a therapist and a parent to a kid. It’s unfair and unrealistic to the youth and the parents.
