Wednesday's Child: Antoine

Wednesday's Child
Adoption Center

PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Antoine is a charming, independent and imaginative 13-year-old who enjoys music, sports and video games.

His favorite song is Maroon 5's "Memories." He said the song relaxes him.


The middle school student also hopes to create new memories with a family of his own.

He is looking for a family to help him gain independence, who is also patient and understanding, as he has a history of autism, intellectual disabilities and ADHD.

Antoine shows great attention to detail and is good with his hands. He likes tinkering with fire alarm pull stations — as long as they are not connected to a wall, of course.

Antoine needs a family who will be an advocate for him and provide him with structure so he can grow and thrive into adulthood.
