  • I never thought I'd ever make a video about teen pregnancy, but I am.

  • It's because the Philippines has the highest rate of teen pregnancy in all of Asia.

  • Out of every 10 girls, one is pregnant.

  • Sarah is one of them high.

  • And by the time she was 18 Sarah had a boyfriend who got her pregnant twice, and by the time I was 18 I was busy picking peaches and getting ready for college.

  • Sarah didn't finish college and couldn't pursue her dreams of becoming a photojournalist because of this.

  • Now she needs three jobs to support her kids, and she's only 22.

  • While her boyfriend, he moved on with his life as if he's not equally responsible.

  • Teen pregnancy is a real problem for both the parent and the kid.

  • Sarah is just one example, but there are a million more sorrows with a million more stories that need to be heard.

I never thought I'd ever make a video about teen pregnancy, but I am.
