It’s interesting. We have been foster parents for over 27 years now and have had quite a few kiddos adopted from our home. And everyone of them has been older. Several 12 year olds, a 13 year old a sister set of 10 and 12, an 11 year old girl and more. And everyone has been successful. Matter of fact, our one girl who was adopted at 11 invited us to her wedding a few years back. Lots of success stories. So don’t give up. There are awesome families out there who want older kids.

To bad all social workers aren’t this amazing, you can tell she genuinely wants to see all these children in safe and loving homes and they are willing to fight and try their hardest to make this happen. It unfortunately doesn’t happen this way in so many cases, at least here in the US, but most workers are well overworked.

Wasn't Tommy's "yes, pease" the most adorable thing ever?

This really breaks my heart. I’m pregnant right now. My fiancé and I have always talked about adopting one day when we have a bigger house. We plan to adopt an older child because we know that they are the ones who usually get turned down. It just makes me so sad. One day I will be able to help.

I went through the system in the UK back in the 1950s. I owe my life to mothers that came to the orphanage to breast feed the kids like me. To the foster parents that had me for a time. It's very easy for orphans to go off the tracks when they hit teen age times, but, those adults who take time to show the kids a better way, make a big difference in the outcome of that child. Thank you to all those social workers.

If I had the money I would adopt them❤❤ No matter there age. Age doesnt mean anything to me. How precious are these beautiful blessings

Went through the foster care system. No exactly how these kids feel. Was never adopted out. Always have felt insecure. I am so thankful that you found faster homes and adoptive homes for these children. God bless you

Damn, the Lauren and Liam story is heartbreaking. If I had the money and a place in England, I'd adopt them or any child/siblings that needed forever homes. Hopefully they find a forever loving home with loving parents. <br><br>Edit -watched the ending. So glad all three kids found families to take them in.

But in Tomy’s case, the fostercarers can just stay in the picture as grandparents, and that would be so nice 🥰
