Max from Pennsylvania

Max is a creative and inquisitive young man who enjoys coloring and arts and craft activities. During his free time, Max likes bead stringing projects and going for walks. One of Max's favorite places to walk to is the local park, where he likes to go on the swings. Once he works up an appetite, Max will hope to be able to have his favorite food for dinner ? chicken nuggets and mac'n'cheese or pizza! But hold the pepperoni please! And of course, no meal would be complete with Max's favorite dessert, strawberry frosted donuts with rainbow sprinkles. After a long day, Max likes to listen to music to help him relax and get ready for bed. He also likes to have a bedtime story or two read to him before heading to dreamland. Max benefits from structured routines and does well when he has a clear understanding of what is expected of him. Max's ideal forever family is loving, supportive, and patient. Max would do best in a family where he is the youngest youth in the home. Family connections are important to Max. His ideal permanent family would be willing to support him in maintaining contact with his biological father and brother. Please help Max support his dreams and grow into adulthood! Parental rights have not been terminated for Max.
