In the special series “The faces of late adoption,” produced by the Mais Conteúdo editorial team of O TEMPO, you will learn more about the journey of challenges, prejudices, and transformations in this process. Hudson was 8 years old when he joined Meira and Joselito’s family. His sister, Sophia, played a key role in the adoption. She was also 8 years old when she went to a circus class, saw the boy doing a somersault, and was enchanted by his movements and his story. The Souza Nogueira family, who had already thought about adopting a small child, changed their minds when they met Hudson. In Brazil, more than half of prospective adopters seek children under 3 years old, but less than 15% of children registered in the National Adoption and Foster Care System are in this age group. Therefore, adoption above this age is already considered late. This is where the work of support groups comes in, which, in partnership with the Justice Department, organize the so-called active search, putting older children in contact with families. #ChildrensDay #adoption #lateadoption SUBSCRIBE to the channel: https://bit.ly/inscricaootempo Follow the main news from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais and Brazil at https://bit.ly/siteotempo Like our page on Facebook: https://bit.ly/faceotempo Follow us on Instagram: https://bit.ly/instaotempo Follow us on Twitter: https://bit.ly/twitterotempo
