New Sneakers for Carolina who desperately wants to fit in with her schoolmates

Posted Aug 29, 2022
Carolina needs a new pair of sneakers. She is currently wearing an old pair that belonged to her bio mother, and they are way too tight on her. She has no idea what her current shoe size should be and needs to go to the store to have her foot measured correctly, and allowing her to get a pair of shoes that fit her well. Carolina just wants to fit in with her peers, and not have to wear old sneakers that hurt her feet. Carolina would like a black pair of shoes so that it won't show when they get dirty.

Carolina is 15 years old and lives in CA

Carol is a serious young girl that likes to listen to music when stressed. Carol is currently in foster care with her siblings. Carol likes to help out with her younger siblings. She enjoys combing her younger siblings hair and helping them get ready for school. Carol is not adjusting well to school. She is bullied for her weight and that makes her sad. Carol is starting to take walks in her neighborhood so that she can get healthier.
