Matthew from Pennsylvania

Matthew is wonderful teen with a sweet disposition and a radiant smile. Matthew really enjoys watching the television show "Tracker" and gets excited about playing any type of sport or watching sports on TV. His favorite food is mac 'n cheese and snack is Mike & Ike's candy. When the weather is warm, Matthew likes going for walks and playing basketball. If you want to keep him entertained when it's cold and snowy outside, surprise him with a sticker-by-number book or word search! Matthew likes dogs and cats and would love to have pets to care for someday. He'd love to be the only child or have older siblings, who he can look up to as role models. Matthew has a close relationship with an extended family member and would like to keep in contact in the future. He has phone calls and visits and a family will need to be able to support this important relationship. Parental rights have not been terminated for Matthew.
