Marcos, 18 years old, NE
Marcos has faced significant challenges in his life. After being removed from his home due to physical abuse from his grandfather, he now lives with foster parents. Struggling to fit in at his new school, he finds it hard to communicate in English. His favorite color is white, and he enjoys exercising and playing soccer, though he doesn’t support any particular team. He also feels pressured by his biological mother in Guatemala to send money home, which adds to his stress. Despite these challenges, his foster parents remind him to focus on being a kid, going to school, and choosing to work if he wants.
