HEALTHY AND ENERGETIC
In the picture, Robby looks older than five, but you can likely.
see he still hs all his "baby" teeth.
Robby is a tall, sturdy boy of Anglo-Saxon descent with dark
eyes, unruly brown hair ,and fair skin. He is a shy, rather aloof
child who comes from a greatly deprived background where
demonstrations of affection were probably unknown. Though he
is perfectly agreeable and co-operative in his foster home, he has
not yet learned to relate warmly to adults. He gets on well with
children his own age or younger.
Information on Robby's family tree is limited but there is no
knowledge of any hereditary illnesses. He is healthy and
energetic, keen on the outdo( s. His foster home is on a farm and
he likes all the animals, especially the dog which is his .constant
companion.
,Robby's attention span is short but he has enough
imagination to play happily alone' if no other children are around.
Since he is just five, Robby has not started school but is looking
forward to going in the fall.
This laddie needs parents who will give him love • without
expecting an immediate return and who will understand that at
this time his ability is unknown. It will be best if there are other
children in the family with Robby the youngest,
To inquire about adopting Robby, please write to Today's
Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888,
Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general, adoption in
information, please contact your local Children's Aid Society.
