"The Pregnancy Project" Conflicts

One of the main conflicts in my book is how the main character, Gaby, deals with all the aftermath that came from her decision. The book is a true story about a girl who faked her pregnancy as a school project to see how people would treat her differently. She learned that becoming a teen mother was hard when it came down to what everyone thought about her. She dealt with a lot of different conflicts with herself, her friends, family, and community. Gaby learns that becoming a teen mother is a lot of work and takes you through a lot. Gaby grew up surrounded by teen moms, and her mother thought that was how Gaby was going to end up just like all her siblings. Gaby grew up living a difficult life with her mom, but with that bug conflict in her life, she learned a lot. The first conflict that Gaby ran into when it came to faking her pregnancy, was getting the permission from the school board to go along with her experiment. Gaby was really nervous that the school board wasn't going to give her the permission, and she thought that she wasn't going to pass for her senior project. I think one of the main conflicts she went through through out the entire story was facing everyone around her. All her peers at school treated her differently, she was talked about behind her back. She learned the responsibilities of becoming a teen mother and all the hard work it is to be a mother, especially at such a young age.
