This discussion piece arose from a conversation between the two authors, Sarah, a nurse researcher exploring teenage women’s pregnancy decisions and Joelle, researcher, ‘young mother’, activist and founder of @prymface a twitter feed that advocates for young mothers and anyone who was ever a young mother.
