Slide 3
Paris Richmond is an 8 year old girl.
Slide 4
She is part of a family of 3. Paris, Malcolm (her brother), and
Paris Mother.
Slide 5
Paris father left them when she was little. Ever since her mom
has had a million boyfriends.
Slide 6
Out of all those boyfriends there was one that Paris and
Malcolm hated and one their mom loved. He was the total package
blue eyes and blonde hair, she couldnt turn him down. Or could
she?
Slide 7
He always threatened to hurt Paris and Malcolm for things,
behind their mothers back. The only thing was, he acted so sweet
and innocent around Paris and Malcolms mother so she didnt
notice.
Slide 8
One day he left them over a piece of food.
Slide 9
Their mother was devastated. She went out every night to a bar
and got drunk from then on. The children didnt understand why she
was so stressed about it.
Slide 10
One night their Grandma came over and came to the sight of just
2 children in the home by their selves. Very angrily she took them
to her home and told them she would take them to a foster home in
the morning.
Slide 11
They begged and begged her to let them stay at her house for a
little while. She said yes, but that didnt last for long. Please
help me!
Slide 12
After a while of staying with his grandmother Malcolm gets
taken by child services. But why?
Slide 13
Now Paris is shipped off to many foster homes by herself. One
was very important to her after being there a while and Paris is
faced with a tough decision? What will she do?
