Hassiya, 17, Ethiopia

"I wasn't married but had a boyfriend who lived nearby, He promised he was going to marry me and we had sex. Then he told his parents that he was going to marry me but they said no. My boyfriend left me when I was four months pregnant and never returned. I never thought I might have a baby. I didn't expect that."

"Sex is a big mystery - we never talk about it with sisters or at school with friends. I always wanted to ask someone but was too shy and no one was around for me. I wish I knew more about contraceptives and I hadn't had a child. I still feel like I'm too young. I will explain everything to Hyat. I don't want the same thing to happen to her."
