Where some see a problem, they found a family
A year ago, Charlie and Jackie Hood was a family with two, but not in the tense situation that their own children.Now they are a family of six. Shekia, 7, Travion, 6, Jalisa, 4 and Antavious, 3, are brothers and sisters. All four were children, and they were all family members Hood, last December.
Two years ago, “The Million March team type of house, which we knew already,” said Charlie. Namely that Germany, there were hundreds of thousands of African Americans in care centres children for adoption.
The masks originally planned to adopt only one child, but once it had decided to place for others.
“Instead of taking a damaging and that is the point of decay, four of us, and all four as big,” said Charlie Hood. “Them”.
Hood Children are children, do not worry, “said Jackie, if she keeps all four, a handful.
“I never see,” Jackie said, shaking his head. “All problems with which the promotion of mother said she had and everything that I have never seen.”
The children quickly adapt the stability and maintenance of the Hood home. They also learned to follow the rules of budget: “We should not fight, and should not mutually reinforcing as the name,” said Shekia, as if called to recite a lesson in class.
If an appeal has been awarded to millions of black people from March to help children in distress, masks responded to the call - and found a family in the process. They did so by Roots, a private placement agency dedicated to Atlanta African-American children of adoptive parents.
Before each adoptions are arranged, prospective parents go through a strict control of the parents of 10 weeks.
“There are complications along the way,” Roots Director Toni Oliver warned of a class. “We can be drag diapers and see - what we want to achieve, and what we perhaps run, run and if we What should we do?”
Adoptions of children in black and Georgia have jumped 42 percent over the past two years. What are the effects, if ever, “The Million Man March on, this number is impossible to determine.
But children do Hood to the debate on the issue of care, they now have a new homeland.
