The mother is absent, even if duly served. Me Alexandre Simon represents the petitioner. [ 3 ] The youths admit most of the allegations and agree with the recommendations made by the social worker. Revision reports are filed in evidence. [ 4 ] The evidence reveals that the youths display behavioural problems. They do not attend school regularly and do not respect authority. Y ran away regularly from her foster home and X consumed drugs and alcohol and does not respect rules in her foster home.

She will receive after the baby's birth monitoring to develop her parental skills. She needs to remain there for six months after the baby's birth. [ 6 ] For X, she is residing at the Youth Heal Services in town C and is doing well.
She finally accepted to receive help from a therapist for her personal issues. She still needs counselling and guidance.
