Kyle is looking for a forever family, and our goal is to get his post shared 200 times to help spread the word on adoption. Will you help by sharing with your friends and family? bit.ly/2GCFKS5
I was 58 when I adopted my son. He was almost 8. He finished college and has a great career. He is happy and grateful to have been in a loving home. Why is everybody so hung up on “age”? Can’t imagine my life without him. He is a wonderful young man. Jean
Kyle is such a sweetheart! I hope he finds his forever family ❤️
Handsome boy with a great smile. I would adopt but am too old at age 75

I have an adopted daughter. Believe me it's truly a joy. If I was younger I would take him. God will find him a loving home.
