We are looking to adopt aged outs / ex-foster kids!My wife and I both work and need to as it is not agood time to sell our real estate.If he is 18 years or more we do not need to be at homeall day.We hope to adopt younger foster kids later.It would be great if some one could start a site where families and aged outs / ex-fosterkids could put up profiles.Dr. Wes Crenshaw just e-mailed me saying he is thinkingabout how to do this.I e-mail Dr. Wes Crenshaw after reading an article.Just google the title below in " marks."Ex-foster kid feels lost without adult support"I know many ex-foster kids are not looking forfamilies but that may be because they do not have a goodsite to put up a profile.If kids are in the foster care system they oftenhave profile and photos etc but the second theyage out they are gone.Just think about the following.(note that M and I are doing all the paperwork to adopt through the foster care system but it willtake about four month more)But think about the following.People (my wife and I included) are happyto go through a criminal background checkbut many of us do not like to have the stateor county come in our home!!Just because we cannot have kids we have thestate come in our home to see if we are good enoughto have kids!!Any guy out there can have kids without the statechecking on them but my wife and I who are hard workinggo to work on time and are clean need the state to comein our home and ask us a lot of questions.Yes I know the state has it's reasons.SORRY FOR JUST LETTING IT ALL OUT LIKE THIS. LOLI do want to make some points and I thought I needed toset the stage.The points:Point #1Adult adoptions are very easy with very littlepaper work. Just google state by state Adult adoptions law.Point #2I think many more people would adopt if you (ex-foster kid)or your agent could do a criminal background checkon the family looking to adopt you. With Adult adoptionsit is up to you (the person being adopted) to decide howmuch or little to look at the family adopting you.Point #3We need a site where ex-foster kids can put up a profileas well as couple's profiles looking to adopt. Hey you maybe looking for a better mom and dad than we can be. lolI hope we can have some humor about this.:)If you want to help build this web site or you have info that could us let us know.Your thoughts please!!
