Brofoyedur was a small, friendly community where children played after school and everyone knew everyone. Adwoa's, a bright 13-year-old girl, loved reading and dreamed of becoming a nurse.

1

One term, Adwoa's friend Mansa stopped coming to school. She often stayed indoors and looked worried when visited. Adwoa missed her cheerful smile.

2

One afternoon, their teacher, Madam Akosua, told the class gently that Mansa was pregnant. The room became quiet. Some pupils were confused, and others looked sad. Adwoa wondered how someone so young could face such a big responsibility.

3

After school, Madam Akosua spoke to the girls. She explained that teenage pregnancy can make a girl stop schooling, face health problems, and miss her dreams. She taught them about making good choices, saying "no" to pressure.

Adwoa and a few classmates visited Mansa. She looked tired, but she smiled when she saw them. "I wish I could still be in class," she said softly. Her friends encouraged her and promised to help her continue learning when the baby comes.

5

The chief and Elders held a community meeting. They encouraged parents to guide children well, protect them, and report anyone who tries to harm or influence them wrongly.

6

The whole community promised to keep children safe. Mansa later returned to school with support from her mother, teachers, and friends.

Adwoa felt proud of her community. She promised herself to focus on her dreams and make good decisions.
