What Happens To Orphanage Kids That Weren't Adopted and grew to adulthood? by KiNg0G(op): 10:12am On Feb 18, 2022
hello all.


Orphanage kids that grew up without getting adopted what happens to them when they've reached adulthood? like between the age of 20 to 25?

I mean they can't be living at the orphanage house for the rest of their lives?

Does the government give them money to start up a business or the orphanage body.

Please feed my curiosity.

am asking because I would like to sow a seed to such lives someday.. without taking it as my property.
Re: What Happens To Orphanage Kids That Weren't Adopted and grew to adulthood? by Mariangeles(f):
I think when the orphans get to certain ages, they leave the orphanage (according to a series I watched one time).

To really find answers to your curiosity, I think you should visit an orphanage and ask questions.
Don’t go without special items for the kids o.

They grow up like normal kids do, go to school, attend unis, graduate, get jobs and get married.. some of them even turn out better than most kids raised by their parents.
I do drop by to present gifts and food items in orphanage homes and I think this question crossed my mind once which I asked at one of the homes. It's safer giving help to those kids than the evil doers you see everywhere and they pray for you.

Which government? undecided
And how many kids are actually in orphanages compared to those roaming the streets homeless?? undecided
Anyways, if you are serious about helping an orphan from an orphanage, start there. undecided

That orphanage serves as their home.

Just like every adult, when they grow up, they find their path in life.

They leave and get married.

Will your children stay with you foreverhuh

Read the OP's question again and modify your post.

Good question
A lot happens to them, good and bad. Some turned out quite nicely and settled in life. While some became ritualists and prostitutes.

So, in a nut shell, LIFE happened to them.

Yet again. Argumentative for the sake of controversy and completely missing the point. You’re just a sad unhinged individual.
Re: What Happens To Orphanage Kids That Weren't Adopted and grew to adulthood? by Kingpele(m): 4:15pm On Feb 18, 2022
I used to think about it too..however an adult will naturally go out to fend for himself, most importantly he could see rich person that can sponsor him through school or other trainings that will empower him to live out his life as Adult and do the things expected of him as a grown up person
Re: What Happens To Orphanage Kids That Weren't Adopted and grew to adulthood? by aboyaji(m):
They stay in the same orphanage home then get enrolled in most especially, skill acquisition. They go about their daily activities and return there until they can fend for themselves or get married.

There are some people who are orphans who did not end up in an orphanage home,but are striving hard in real life...
Re: What Happens To Orphanage Kids That Weren't Adopted and grew to adulthood? by FreeStuffsNG:
They are like every normal kid.

During holidays, while you return to your family house, they return to the orphanage where their family is waiting for them.
When they graduate and get job, some may remain if there is space for their accommodation while some rent their own apartment and go on and settle down to lead their lives.

I was once privileged to be in an organization sponsoring their education. That orphanage has produced a lot of graduates who are even parents today, it even produced one of the top music acts at some point in time. Sincerely,most the children in that particular orphanage were awesome and they were all living well , well above even some children from functional families.I applaud Nigerians for this great support for that particular orphanage.

Sincerely, there is no big deal and I love how they call one another brother and sister. I notice that their bond even remains even after leaving the orphanage.

Children of the staff of orphanages equally benefit from the free stuffs and scholarship we were extending to the top orphanage then. That was when I knew that not all those in the orphanages are actually from dysfunctional backgrounds wink
