Marie is 16 and seven months pregnant. Her original home was in Montreal, Canada. She was kicked out of her house when her parents learned that she was expecting. Marie is a sweet girl, but has a learning disability that prevents her from excelling in school. She makes friends easily and loves to interact with others, especially young children and elders. She no longer speaks to her parents and wishes to distance herself from her old family. She needs some patience as she works through her schoolwork, but will persevere until she is blue in the face. She loves 60s music, traveling, and shopping.
