Sammy, 15 years old, NJ
Sammy is a passionate young man who enjoys playing basketball and exploring the virtual world of Roblox. His favorite subjects are Math and History, where he finds joy in solving Math problems, relishing the challenge of seeking answers, no matter how long it takes. Sammy attends a school outside of his district due to his developmental disabilities. His parents relinquished their parental rights to the state because they felt they were not equipped to handle Sammy's behavioral issues. Initially, Sammy struggled with the situation regarding his parents, but with the help of his therapist, he has been coping better with their decision on a day-to-day basis.
