When Andrea spoke about how when he was walking into the home and thought "Why am I sending my child in there?" I started tearing up at all the love. What a beautiful family and story.
Great story! Todd & Andrea are great people & friends! They have big hearts and strong faith in God! Jackson is a great young man & I am glad I got to know him a little.
A beautiful story !! Jackson is a special young man Always go forward Jackson Leave the past behind You You are so blessed to have such wonderful Parents !!!! I wish you the best !!!
This was a beautiful story of love from this sweet couple and joy to know Jackson found two parents who love him is so beautiful! I am grateful he is being raised with Christian parents! God is good!
Hi Jackson, I assume what this story tells is true and I expect that it is. You seem to have been given very true and genuine people who now are your parents and I am so happy for you. I have had a similar experience, but it was different. I was not as lucky as you. But I have survived and have done well by myself. I have no advice to give you except always listen to your true heart. Stay at school as long as you are able and learn something that will help your future. A big hug to you from me in the land down under. Also a big hug to Todd and Andrea as well. :-)
Well said a family that you find relative come out of the wood work. Some family’s you have relatives never met till wedding, and funerals. I my self have so many who I never met yet but know of how we are connected
I raised my two girls and did all I could to raise them to feel loved. However, we went through a lot and now they are in their 20’s but decided not to have anything to do with me two years ago. So, I would think adopting a much older child must be challenging also.
it frustrates me when people question why children or even adults act a certain way, and in the United States we have the freedom to act however we want as long as it doesn't harm other people

The file that foster teens have is the same record that adults have and I think one of the other issues with our society is that we judge people based on our past, and this is more apparent in the system and has a society we need to stop doing it
my age 15 I love art, I am an artist, I love different arts, I love animals, I also write, I have a wide imagination, I am gentle and strong, I am supportive.
I'm only 24 and dont make enough money but I support you and I hope one day you get adopted. Maybe make a UA-cam channel or make a tik tok. Contact a news channel and tell them story send them videos if yourself!!! Be strong you got this. 💖
wow these parents shouldn't have adopted him they talk about him like he's second class and they humbled themselves to step down and help him. They talk like they adopted a naughty dog that sheds too much but they are trying to find the good things in him
@Gabriella I guess we didn't watch the same video. The mom said when he was leaving she wondered to herself "Why am I sending my child back?" and the son said "I feel like they've always been my parents." Sounds like everyone is happy.
That's not the impression I got. I think they painted a realistic picture of adoption. It's well known that teens are the least likely to be adopted. There's a reason people avoid them. It's more challenging to raise a grown child who has likely been through very bad experiences and has trust issues.
It sounds like you didn’t really pay attention to what anyone said and then made assumptions based on your misperceptions (or projections?). Where in the video did they talk like they adopted a naughty dog? They expressed their hesitation about adopting a teenager they didn’t raise because they had no real way of knowing if they would be a good match for each other. This is very helpful to prospective adoptive parents. It’s a realistic, very human look into adoption of teenagers and not viewed through the rose-tinted lenses of other videos.
rely on god? that's sad. if you wanna help someone do it because you want to and not cause god told you to do it. do it for selfish reasons...but NEVER do it cause jesus told you or to please god. 😡
I finally got adopted Im 14 years old and I have progeria and no-one wanted me until a month ago
When Andrea spoke about how when he was walking into the home and thought "Why am I sending my child in there?" I started tearing up at all the love. What a beautiful family and story.
Having sex and kids outside marriage is absolute disaster on society
Honest about being hesitant is nice to hear. Its real not staged . Great story.
It takes real courage and love to adopt a teenage boy. I raised my 2 sons from birth and it was the hardest time parenting.
Great story! Todd & Andrea are great people & friends! They have big hearts and strong faith in God! Jackson is a great young man & I am glad I got to know him a little.
A beautiful story !! Jackson is a special young man
Always go forward Jackson Leave the past behind
You You are so blessed to have such wonderful
Parents !!!! I wish you the best !!!
I love how realistic their story is. Wishing them the best. May they continue to rely on God. He's got the best help for life's challenges.
I like hearing about positive happy stories...they are a true family based on love, respect, and outlook
Man, there are some good people in this world. Love this family 💕 God bless you family!
This was a beautiful story of love from this sweet couple and joy to know Jackson found two parents who love him is so beautiful! I am grateful he is being raised with Christian parents! God is good!

Zachery you are important and god has a plan for you stay strong you are a inspiration so please dont lose hope 2:27
Oh!!!what a beauty.💐💐💐💐
Angels - more than people!
What a great family!!!!!
I think trust is a choice. We choose to trust people we choose to not trust people.
it frustrates me when people question why children or even adults act a certain way, and in the United States we have the freedom to act however we want as long as it doesn't harm other people
Great kid and parents
What an endering story but awfully one with a very sad ending.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Jackson and mum and dad

Beautiful chances of love

How about an update. How's it going?
God Bless❤❤❤
Perfect as many just age-out of the system.
Good bye bro😔😢
Please, can someone adopt me?
my age 15 I love art, I am an artist, I love different arts, I love animals, I also write, I have a wide imagination, I am gentle and strong, I am supportive.

How are you? Are you still looking for a family? I'm an artist too. 🎨
wow these parents shouldn't have adopted him they talk about him like he's second class and they humbled themselves to step down and help him. They talk like they adopted a naughty dog that sheds too much but they are trying to find the good things in him
Exactly. Adopted in 03/21 and video uploaded 06/21. Seems like indoctrination. Was faith in his life before their interviews ?
@Gabriella I guess we didn't watch the same video. The mom said when he was leaving she wondered to herself "Why am I sending my child back?" and the son said "I feel like they've always been my parents." Sounds like everyone is happy.

Rely on whatever you choose, allow them to rely on whatever they choose
It’s not for you tell them how to live their lives
Just saying
@@juliafru7522 you missed my whole point obviously
Tem algo mais lindo que Deus pedir para que adote um jovem? Esse é o coração amoroso do Pai. Deus é bondoso e sua misericórdia se renova a cada manhã.
