Photolisting Profile for Lyden

Lyden is a 13-year-old boy from Oregon who is hoping to be adopted.

Lyden is a boy who loves the outdoors. He is especially interested in fishing and crabbing, but loves camping, hiking, and boating, too. His favorite subject in school is hands-on science. If he can't be outside, Lyden likes playing video games or watching the Discovery Channel on TV.

He has dark strawberry hair and blue green eyes with a fair complexion and freckles across his nose, dimples in his cheeks and a stocky build. Lyden loves to tell stories.

A family willing to make Lyden the center of attention and are nurturing and will listen to him will be a perfect match for him. Mainly allowing him to vent when angry or upset and allowing him a chance to tell his side of the story when in trouble is best. Lyden will continue to need supervision and he wants to help and learn new things from caregivers.

Lyden has two older siblings who he will need to maintain continued contact with, whether by in-person visits or talking on the telephone. Lyden has been making progress in a therapeutic environment and will need continued support, encouragement, and permanency to meet his potential.
