Blog 5 November 23rd

I read an article in the People magazine called Maureen McCormick MY LIFE STORY. This article was about Maureen McCormick more widely recognized as Marcia Brady. It shared the struggles that she's had growing up and even in her life presently. Being a childhood star is one of the most difficult jobs in the world. It forces you to grow up faster than you're ready for and it is a very scary experience. While Maureen was on the Brady Bunch her parents left her because they became mentally insane. After returning to high school for her senior year nothing in her life would ever be the same. She started abusing prescription drugs and it eventually led her to Cocaine. This was one of her hardest addictions to break but she eventually did with the introduction of religion into her life. She now has trouble staying in shape but her 19 year old daughter and husband are there for her to guide her and provide the love and support she neds to get better.
