Christopher is a 12-year-old boy from Texas who is hoping to be adopted.

Christopher is a healthy and happy adolescent that loves to play baseball and ride his bike. He is smart and does well in school. He attends the local Boys and Girls Club, and enjoys interacting with his peers. Christopher gets along with his peers most of the time, however, he will respond if he feels that he is being mistreated. He is somewhat easy to redirect, but like most pre-teens, can develop an attitude when things are not going his way. With help from the adults in his life, Christopher is able to work through any negative feelings and get through the difficult times. Christopher resides in the same home with his little brother, Ayden, and is very bonded to him. He is a very protective big brother, and looks out for him. They get along well, and Christopher wants to be adopted with Ayden.

Christopher and Ayden are two brothers who are very bonded to each other. They are active, healthy children, who love to play outside. Their favorite sport is basketball. They enjoy most activities outside, and love to go to the park. Christopher is very protective of his little brother, and watches over him closely. They are both very affectionate and loving. Christopher is excited about finding a permanent home for him and his brother, and definitely wants them to be adopted together. Ayden has been in the same foster home for over two years, so there could be some confusion for him during the transition to an adoptive home. They are both close to their foster family, and would like to maintain some contact with them. Visit us at the TARE Gallery.

The family will have to be willing to adopt Christopher and his little brother. He needs a family who can provide him with love, guidance, and supervision as he gets older. He also needs a family who is flexible and understands that children makes mistakes and poor decisions sometimes. An adoptive family will encourage Christopher to continue doing well in school and support him academically. They will need to have knowledge of adolescent behaviors and how to deal with them.
