Shelton is a teenager who loves to be outside. He enjoys fishing or doing any kind of outdoor activity. He also enjoys woodworking projects and creating different things. He's a kid who values people more than material possessions and says that his adoptive family wouldn't have to have a lot of money. As long as they are kind to him, pay attention to him and do activities with him, he says he would be happy. Shelton wants to be adopted and is very clear about why he can't live with his birth family. Shelton's foster parents describe him as "a hard working kid" and enjoy having him in their home. Shelton has an IEP at school. He takes medication to help him manage his behavior. Shelton is emotionally a lot younger than his chronological age. He has siblings with whom he would like to stay in contact. Shelton is in counseling and would need to continue. Shelton needs a family that will provide him with lots of structure and supervision. He would also do best in a home where he is the youngest or only child. Shelton is in the permanent custody of Athens County Children Services and is currently available for adoption. Subsidies are available. Agency: Athens County Children Services |
