Photolisting Profile for Alysha Dawn

Alysha Dawn is a 17-year-old girl from Kentucky who is hoping to be adopted.

ALYSHA (1/92) wanted to write her own web page narrative. With guidance from her worker she wrote the following: "I am looking for a family. I want a father, a mother, and I want to be the only child maybe. I like to go to school. I love learning. I like going outside. I usually get along better with boys than girls. I would like a mom to help me when I need to talk and take me places with her and show me that she cares about me. I would like for her to take me to school and sit down and talk with me about what I have done wrong if I get into trouble. I would like my dad to say I care about you, and I love you, and to take me to work with him, talk to me about my day, help me when needed, and to show me that he cares about me and loves me. It will be hard for me to talk about what has happened to me and I may be hard at first to talk to. It may be hard to get to talk to people and get to know people at first. I want people who don’t lie and don’t hurt me. And tell me the truth. I like to play basketball and football. My favorite foods are cheeseburgers and fries. My favorite music is rap and R&B music." Alysha has a likable personality and has made great progress since being in her current placement. She is well loved by her worker and those close to her.
