You will have to show him that you’re capable of taking care of them. You will have to have a good income that can put a roof over their heads, food in their bellys and clothes on their back. You’ll have to show him or her that you’re mature enough to raise these children into good citizens. You will have to prove that their parents aren’t suitable and you could do a better job and how, get a job, do well in school and don’t get arrested and you may beable to prove you would be a better parent for them
