The Petrosyan Family
Miami, Miami-Dade County · Southeast Florida
Updated 2 days agoWe came to adoption after years as foster parents. We know that love alone doesn't heal, so we've built a team around us — therapists, teachers, and family who show up when it's hard.

Considerations
We would want to talk through supports available before parenting a child with a history of fire-setting.Our current work travel means a child needing round-the-clock supervision may need further discussion.Our home has a pool, so water-safety planning would be part of any conversation.
