Dreamcatchers for Abused Children, a non-profit organization dedicated to reforming the lives of abused children, recently shared a poignant wish list written by a foster child from Oklahoma.
Once in the care of Dreamcatchers for Abused Children, the organization found the child a loving and supportive new home. When they shared the news with the boy,
he created a heartrending wish list of things he desired in his new forever family.
This is the list:
“Things I want in my family:
I want food and water.
Don’t hit on me.
A house with running water and lights.
I want love.
Mom and dad don’t fight.
I want no drugs.
Don’t kill my pets.
Help with school.
Nice clean clothes.
No lice. No bug in house.
Clean house.
Clean bed with covers.
Don’t sell my toys.
Treated fair.
Don’t get drunk.
Tv in house.
Let me keep my school stuff.
Nice shoes.
My own comb soap. Nice house and safe and heater coat.
Toothbrush.”
