A Texas teenager was adopted by his former teacher right before the holidays. Anthony Berry, 16 has been in foster care since he was 9 years old, he felt at his age he would never get adopted. The whole encounter happened when Anthony asked his now mother to look on a website that will allow her to adopt him during class. Ms. Berry told him that he had to complete his work then show her the website, come to find out that their was a real website that she could go on an adopt him. Ms. Berry persuade on and adopted her new son; to gain a new family right before the holiday is amazing. In my opinion it’s heart warming and wonderful that the teacher didn’t find this as a joke and actually adopted this child and gave him maybe the best Christmas present a teenager in foster care could want a warm home and a loving family to go with it.
Do you agree that what this teacher did was a great act of kindness and selflessness to bring him into her home and give him a family?
