being a safe stop for children and then even turning into a Father

Tommy was a foster kid himself before he got adopted by Philza , he knew how it was in the foster care that didnt care about anyone. He knew how abusive most homes were so he decided to foster himself to be a safe spot for the children till a good home is found for them.
His family suported him of course and always joked about him adopting a kid some day but he never believed that would come true. He had to stop fostering after two years when he was 22 years old because of an car accident but now hes back and gets the first kid after a month.
