(WNDU) - There’s a need for more foster parents… and an even greater need for parents who are willing to adopt foster children.

There’s a teenager in Indiana who’s hoping to land in a family with brothers and sisters. Indiana Kids Belong sent us the story of 13-year-old Brent — a kid who is not a fan of school.

“The hardest thing about being a kid is school — six hours of cruel of my life,” Brent said.

Brent finds a way to bring joy, however.

“Things that make me feel happy — going shopping; anything I collect — Disney cars. Shoes, I’d probably like — I would collect Nike. I could, if they weren’t that expensive,” Brent admitted.

Like most teenage boys, Brent is into video games.

“My favorite video game is Fortnite, Minecraft, Rocket League,” Brent said.

But he’s also a fan of nice cars.

“If I had all the money in the world, I would buy me a Camaro, a Dodge Charger, and a Porsche,” Brent said.
