Max

Meet Max

Max is a 13 year old boy that was adopted through foster care. Max has a strained relationship with his mother. He does not respect her as an authority figure which has made the home an unhealthy environment. Max’s family have partnered with KidTeen Adoptions to try and find him a new home, with different family dynamics, where he’ll thrive. Max is aware of this adoption process and is on board with trying to find a family that can meet his needs. 

We are looking for a two parent or single parent home. Heterosexual and LGBTQ+ couples and individuals are invited to inquire. The family believes Max would do best in a two parent household with a mom and a dad or two dads. He currently lacks male role models in his life and would benefit from having a masculine or father figure in his new home. Any single parent that inquiries will need to have a strong support network. The family is open to the new family having siblings on a case by case basis. The family prefers a Christian home, but they are open to other religious or non-religious homes with good values. There is no preference on the location, age or employment of the new adoptive parent(s). 

Max is generally described as confident. outgoing and social. He enjoys having conversations with others and is comfortable in many different settings. Max can be very thoughtful in his interactions with others. Max is an active child who really enjoys physical activity. His favorite sport is basketball. Max is a talented dancer and won a dance competition in his hometown. He likes hip hop and breakdancing. Max is also an accomplished piano player. He has played at different festivals, studios and even performed at a Regionals competition. 

Max does well with others outside of his home. His family says he is extremely capable. Max loves reading. His teachers often report having positive experiences with Max in the classroom. He likes to share his thoughts and opinions during discussions and is very kind to other students, especially those who are younger than him. Max would love a parent to do projects with. He’s helpful and would enjoy learning different things like building, carpentry, car mechanics etc. 

Max is hoping there is a family out there who can better fit his needs.

This is a private adoption, so a state or foster care home study might not work. A state authorized private domestic or international home study is generally required. You will need a current, updated or new home study for this adoption.

Due to state laws, we are unable to place this child in CT, MA, NY, or DE. If you live in WI, there are a few steps that have to be followed, but it is possible to adopt from there. If you live in OR, you may need to travel to the child’s state to finalize the adoption. We have made recent connections in FL that could potentially make it possible to place in that state. Please contact us for more information.If we have home study ready families for this child, we will consider them first. Therefore, if you are willing to take a child between the ages of 9 and 15, we suggest you begin the process as soon as possible.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.Contact us if you have any questions or want to know more about Max. Our email is kidteenadoptions@wiaa.org
