My husband and I are in our 70's and are currently the guardian of our son's ex-wifes child (no blood relation) and have been raising him for the past 5 years. It is becoming clear that we need to find another solution. We are just getting too old. The child's mother is still a drug user/gambling addict with no interest in the child. My son also has challenges with drugs so he is of no help.
What is the path to find a family to adopt this child? He is an adorable, healthy (ad/hd) boy --- what steps do I need to take to find a family for him? We don't want to release him into the foster care systems, it would break our hearts.
Thank you for your help.
