Max

Description

Max is a Caucasian, 12-year-old boy placed with his family through a kinship placement when he was 4 years old. He is 52” tall and about 67 lbs. He has blonde hair, green eyes, with a small build. He is lighthearted, thoughtful, kind, and eager to have fun.

Max enjoys anything outdoors. He loves to fish, play sports, run, hike, swim, collect bugs, etc. When he is fully engaged and activated, he is a joy. The outdoors has lots of “room” for Max and his big personality to be engaged with others. Max also enjoys music/choir and entertaining others.

Max is great with animals. He is attentive and loyal to them. He is usually the most thoughtful caregiver of his family’s dogs. He has spent a lot of time with two different Labradors in two different families, they are perfect companions for Max. Max is a non-stop talker asking questions, he is curious. He will also play catch non-stop. He loves music and has a natural signing voice. He is enrolled in choir this year. He loves attending concerts.

Max currently is not taking medication for his ADHD and DMDD diagnosis.

The ideal family for Max would be a two-parent or single parent home with no kids or with older kids who also have matured and have some of their own things going on. When Max’s emotional needs are met, he is a good kid and very easy to like. Max does need structure. They prefer a Christian family.

We know that adopting a child over the age of 9 could be difficult, but we feel confident that there are parents of all types out there who love kids and would love to add them to their families.

Adoption is a legal process so there will be costs associated with them. There are grants out there to help fund your adoption (please request that information.) This adoption may qualify for the IRS Adoption Tax Credit.
