If she gets raped she may have to give birth to a baby to her attackers baby. She may die at any time in many states should she get pregnant and have complications that doctors will not touch leading to death. That is the biggest living hell that I can imagine. My daughter who is in her thirties says that she will not live in a country that does not have birth control. These are the things young women and girls are dealing with today. Plans need to be fluid enough to leave the country.
