15 year old mom

This girl has a 1 month old baby.  There are too many young girls here with babies.  There are also way too many abortions that take place under horrible conditions.  

We met another 14 year old girl that came to a clinic we were at and it was confirmed that she is 5 months pregnant.  Her older sister brought her. 
The girl's mother does not want to take care of her now that she is pregnant so she will go to the boy's village and stay with his mother until the baby arrives.  She can then go back home if her mother is willing.  She is too young to marry but will have a baby to take care of now and it will be difficult for her to continue her schooling.  So sad!!
