The Pregnancy Project
of GaRodriguez, Jenna Glatzer (Goodreads Author) (Contributor)
Description
Growing up, Gaby Rodriguez was often told she would end up a teen mom. After all, her mother and her older sisters had gotten pregnant as teenagers; from an outsiderâs perspective, it was practically a family tradition. Gaby had ambitions that didnât include teen motherhood. But she wondered: how would she be treated if she âlived downâ to others' expectations? Would everyone ignore the years she put into being a good student and see her as just another pregnant teen statistic with no future? These questions sparked Gabyâs school project: faking her own pregnancy as a high school senior to see how her family, friends, and community would react. What she learned changed her life forever, and made international headlines in the process.In The Pregnancy Project, Gaby details how she was able to fake her own pregnancyâhiding the truth from even her siblings and boyfriendâs parentsâand reveals all that she learned from the experience. But more than that, Gabyâs story is about fighting stereotypes, and how one girl found the strength to come out from the shadow of low expectations to forge a bright future for herself.
