I remember a movie called Kids for Rent, I don't know if this is the real title as I cannot find anything on it when searching. In short it's got a couple with whom the husband gets a promotion and has to move to like Arizona, but they mentioned they have kids. In order to fix this little problem they find 2 kids who live with a relative, and pay them to pretend to be their kids. In the end they adopt them I believe.

Also there's one part where the kids are on the bus near the end and the song "So take, these broken wings, and learn to fly again, learn to live so free.." plays, and the wife tries to go after them.

Also another part where the boy and the husband are playing b-ball and it's the song "1,000 degrees" or so playing during that scene.

Anybody know the real title?

Thanks!

My brother and I have been looking for this movie too. We knew it as "Kids for Rent" but the overview of Help Wanted: Kids" (1986) (TV) sounds like the right movie. I have my nerd boyfriend on the case, but he's having a tough time finding it.
