Sad to see young women such as at a tender age of 15, 16 or 17 get pregnant by accident. They get excited to enter in such a romantic relationship then later on do things that they are not yet ready to face the consequences.
My niece who only turned seventeen last September is now one month pregnant by her boyfriend with the same age. My elder sister only discovered it last week and she she's terribly devastated. Now my niece decided to go with her boyfriend and live with him together with the boy's family. This also saddens me because my heart goes to my elder sister. She had put high expectations and trust to her daughter.
I have two daughters, one who is 16 and the other is 15. I have been reminding them of this kind of scenario and I know that they are good kids and would listen to us.

It is so heartbreaking indeed when a child would get pregnant at a very early age .
My parents specially my father , was so down hearted when first , our third sibling eloped at the age of 18 . He took her back , but after a few months suddenly vanished . After a year returned with a son .
Then , after two years the fourth one gets pregnant at the age of 18 also .
