Dean, 15, has a great sense of humor and likes to be the center of attention. He loves to dance and enjoys spending time outdoors, watching shows like "Family Guy," going to drive-in movies and listening to all types of music, especially rap. Dean really likes animals and would enjoy living on a hobby farm. Some of his favorite foods are Chinese food, pasta and seafood. Dean needs a family that can provide structure and predictability. It would be best if he was the youngest child in the home. Following adoption, Dean would need to maintain contact with his older sister as well as his birth mother.
