Teen Pregnancy in Uganda

Prossy, Nina, and Vivian admire a newborn just brought home from the hospital. The girls are from different regions and tribes all over Uganda, and do not all speak the same language. Their local languages are spoken at home, and English, the national language, is taught in school, though most girls have only studied through primary school, which is free. Often children do not attend primary school as their parents prefer to have them work at home, or they do not have money for school supplies and school uniforms. School fees for secondary school are expensive, and few of the girls have finished all the way through.
