How young is too young?

On the way to work today on the 5 train, we saw the ad for our pregnancy care centers. It was so exciting and we took pictures. At our 149st office, I was able to spend time with a 16 year old girl. Her parents had forced her to get an abortion two weeks ago, even though she wanted to keep the baby. She was really heartbroken about her abortion. I was able to talk to her about her relationship with her boyfriend and about sexual purity. Her goal is to go to MIT and be the first one in her family to go to college. She is such a beautiful girl and has the potential to be a great leader in the future. I will never forget my time with her and will keep her in my prayers the rest of my life.
