Troy from Texas

Troy is a caring and lovable child. He has a big and demanding personality! Being the oldest of five children, he tends to take on the role of caregiver towards his siblings, who are not a part of this adoption. Like many boys his age, Troy enjoys play and participating in sports. However, he is most passionate about wrestling and boxing. Troy has fun with these sports as they help him show off his competitive side. Recently, he was also involved in martial arts and found that to be a fun experience too! Troy also enjoys playing video games. He is adventurous and likes to try new things whenever possible. Troy continues to learn how to take responsibility and ownership for his behavior. He is a sweet child who can form good connections and be respectful to the adults in his life. Troy is doing well in school and is a likeable child.

Troy will benefit from a two-parent home, with a strong and engaging male presence. He is a very family-oriented child, especially toward mother-figures although he takes better direction from father-figures. His family must be patient and able to quickly redirect Troy when needed. Troy will thrive in a home where he is the only child. However, he would also do well in a home with older children or teenagers. Troy's family should be open to maintaining the connections he has with his siblings, who are not a part of this adoption.
