Meet Mathew – Kind-hearted teen seeks forever family
Posted
By Josie Gaieck, Aid to the Adoption of Special Kids
Mathew’s easy-going and friendly nature helps him make friends nearly everywhere he goes. It helps that the teen also has a wide variety of interests leaving him with plenty to talk about and ways to connect with everyone.
Mathew enjoys trying new things, but does have a stand-by list of favorites. This includes playing Minecraft, watching superhero TV shows, and all things animals!
Although Mathew has a soft spot for lizards and hamsters, he says he likes all animals and would love to have a pet someday. He hopes when he is older he can volunteer at an animal shelter and help feed the dogs who live there.
Like every child, Mathew is looking for a family that will provide unconditional love and will support him as he grows into the incredible young man he is sure to be. Mathew doesn’t have a preference between a one parent or two parent home, but says he would like older brothers so he can learn from them and have tons of fun!
