Reports examine the harsh realities of adolescent motherhood in rural El Salvador through the personal accounts of young mothers. One account highlights a 14-year-old girl named "Flor," who entered a relationship with a 22-year-old man who became the father of her child.
Additional testimony illustrates the poverty and generational cycles associated with teen pregnancy in the region. A young mother shares that she was born the day after her own mother turned 15, and expresses doubt that she will be able to celebrate her upcoming 15th birthday due to a lack of funds for basic necessities like new shoes.
