The number of teen mothers in the Marshall
Islands is increasing, and being a mother here is especially hard. Many Marshallese
teenagers are having babies without fathers to support them. Some Marshallese
teen mothers are having a baby without a job to buy what they need.

Mother Like Daughter!!!!!!!!!!<34> |
I can tell about one of
my sisters who got pregnant when she was in middle school. She dropped out of
school because she got pregnant. Our parents got angry with her and she ran
away with the father of her baby. Neither of them finished their education. And
they didn’t have jobs. When the baby was born, they didn’t have money to buy
things he needed. They have no money to support their baby. My sister, her
husband and their baby stay with both of their parents. When her husband’s
parents don’t have money they come to our house. This has been happening from
the time the baby was born eight months ago until now.
