When Gaby faked a pregnancy to challenge stereotypes, she also
changed her life. A compelling memoir from an inspirational teenage
activist.
Growing up, Gaby Rodriguez was often told she would end up a teen
mom. After all, her mother and her older sisters had gotten
pregnant as teenagers; from an outsider's perspective, it was
practically a family tradition. Gaby had ambitions that didn't
include teen motherhood. But she wondered: how would she be treated
if she "lived down" to others' expectations? Would everyone ignore
the years she put into being a good student and see her as just
another pregnant teen statistic with no future? These questions
sparked Gaby's high school senior project: faking her own pregnancy
to see how her family, friends, and community would react. What she
learned changed her life forever--and made international headlines
in the process.
In "The Pregnancy Project," Gaby details how she was able to fake
her own pregnancy--hiding the truth from even her siblings and
boyfriend's parents--and reveals all that she learned from the
experience. But more than that, Gaby's story is about fighting
stereotypes, and how one girl found the strength to come out from
the shadow of low expectations to forge a bright future for
herself.
