Adoption Story for Tough Guys

December 3, 2014 //  by Sam McLure

People love to hear a good story.  Kids love hearing stories from a very early age.  Hearing a good story is one thing that people of all ages enjoy.  Most people enjoy helping others and hearing stories about people helping other people.  Adoption stories are great because they are not just stories, but real life changing stories that are heart-warming.

The following video outlines a heart-warming story with a little different twist.  A tough guy, law enforcement detective in Pittsburgh who enjoys teaching kids how to box showed that even tough guys can have a heart for adoption.  The story speaks for itself and is very moving.  This boxing instructor developed a relationship with two foster kids who came to the boxing facility at which he was a volunteer.  After the children did not show up for boxing for a little while, he went and found that they were living in an abusive foster home.  He decided to take them in as his own foster children and later adopted both of the brothers.  Watch the video for yourself and be encouraged and inspired.
