Teen Mothers Page #3

---

But I don't want Luana

to go through this.

When these two children are born,

I don't know how I'm going to...

support them.

The money I earn I already give

my mother to buy clothes for them.

There's none left for me.

I work here,

but it 's a major headache.

I think about when she leaves,

and I'll be left alone.

Whenever I get home I try

to persuade her to stay.

And the answer is always

that she's going to leave.

She won't change.

The thing she wants me to do to

forgive her, I won't do, I can't.

To let my other child be born

without giving it anything.

That 's what she wants me to do.

Evelin Rodrigues dos Santos.

You see that, that white ball,

that 's the bone of the baby's head...

that round white bit is

the bone of the baby's head.

At the point of the arrow, can you

see that? You see three lines...

a white one, black and then

a white one, know what that is?

That 's your little

princess's vagina.

What, were you expecting

a little tomcat? It 's a girl...

so tell your hubby you have

a little pussycat inside you.

By tomorrow you'll

have your baby.

It 's kicking.

WALFRIDES PEREIRA

MIDWIFE:

- Are you relaxing?

- Yes?

Then when the doctor tells

you to push, you help.

By tomorrow you'll

have your baby.

God willing.

Jaqueline, are you drinking

that from the bottle?

Luana, I'm going to need Juninho.

- The fridge!

- The fridge?

Wow, Pereira sure

is strong, look!

Wesley dropped it

on the floor.

Who asked you to buy

more Guaran?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Okay.

Okay.

Here!

- I know what it is.

- What is it?

- Another girl!

- Feel here.

Didn't I tell you it was a girl?

Didn't I?

To play with Raiane!

It 's so cool.

Look, the head.

- That 's the head?

- Yes.

He told me if I took 4 bread rolls,

in my hand...

that would be her weight.

I'm right here, I'm staying

with you. All right, honey?

Cute, isn't he?

That 's it. Hold him well up.

Look at all those stretch marks.

Stretch marks, like hell!

Stop!

- You Stop!

- Then stop!

Stretch marks!

The navel will puff out.

No it won't, because it 's so deep,

the lady said it wouldn't.

Kids are great, you know,

but they're so much work.

People who haven't, want kids,

and others who have, don't want them.

That 's the truth of it.

I'll take him to court

to pay an allowance.

Oh sure, he doesn't work,

how's he supposed to pay?

So if he's not working he'll

go to jail, I feel sorry for him.

Spend a few days in jail so he

can see how great it is...

getting girls pregnant.

If he were setting up a home,

living with her and being...

the father, that would be okay,

he could do as he liked, boss her...

around and all that, but he

refuses to act like a man!

He's only a man in

age and size.

- Shut up!

- Watch your mouth.

It 's colic.

Hadn't you heard her yet, grandma?

Now you'll be wanting your...

granddaughter, you see, rejection

has turned to passion! See?

The child is hers, don't you

go looking after it, you hear...

let her be the mother!

I don't really know whether

I'm ready to be a mother...

only after it 's born...

I'll see that it 's mine...

I'll have to take care of it.

I already told my mother to...

keep an eye on Jssica,

because Jssica's so flirtatious.

If she's dating she

won't care...

if a boy comes on to her she's all

smiles and loves the attention.

My mother is scared of criminals, she's

always wearing tight clothes...

the criminals

these days, where I live...

they've no respect.

They used to respect you,

but not nowadays.

For instance if I walk by and they

watch me, and if I look round...

and smile, then they

think I'm flirting.

The next time I pass by they grab

me and do whatever they want.

I was going to break up with him,

but he doesn't want to.

I told him I don't want anything

more to do with him.

Because one time

I went to a party...

I was pregnant...

he wants to be my boss but

he isn't, and he pushed me...

really hard in front of everyone,

I fell on the floor.

I was wearing high heels.

Really hit me hard.

And when I got up he punched

me in my mouth.

My mother told me, when he

was involved in all that stuff...

that it was my choice...

she said a criminal's girl...

is bound to get beaten up,

that sort of thing.

And I didn't believe her.

And nowadays I regret it.

What do you regret?

Having gone out with him.

Although I like him.

But what was I supposed to do?

It 's the heart which rules.

I'm leaving!

I'm leaving because he's got

to give his daughter things...

and I don't accept that.

She'll have to come here.

Just to think of her walking down

the street makes me angry.

I asked him if he'd see her

after I leave and he said no.

That he wants to

stay with me.

Now she's going I don't know

what 's going to happen.

I feel this emptiness

inside me.

The only thing I don't want is her

father to stop me from seeing the baby.

Because I've been acting like

a man...

and take responsibility for everything

I've done. He mustn't bar me.

I've been very hurt by her.

Although I like her...

I'm still angry with her.

Are you taking him upstairs,

Edilene?

Takes it with you.

You know the days you have

to bring him here.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

I know.

- Friday, Saturday and Sunday?

- Not this one, next Friday!

She'll bring him Friday,

Saturday and Sunday.

It 's going to cost a lot

of money.

- Okay.

- Bye!

Jesus is precious to me

Jesus is precious to me

Sinner come into the light

for He came down

from the cross

You need Jesus

Oh Lord, censure all evil in

the name of Jesus...

save the family, marriages, I deliver

each one here today, Lord!

Come on, let 's start,

let 's go!

Mosquito net?

Wrong!

A cot sheet,

give me the lipstick.

My God!

That 's a hard belly, huh?

A lotion.

It was you who gave it to me,

I'll paint you.

It 's so embarrassing!

Juninho hasn't been

painted yet!

Lovely!

How cute!

I want to be a baby!

I like Rocinha because it 's so

busy, it 's got a lot going on...

places for people to go,

everything nearby.

Some people don't like it

because of the gunfights...

but I love the noise.

I think it 's great.

My mother gets nervous when

there's a gunfight in Rocinha.

Not me, it 's really wild, I start

dancing, my brother starts crying.

That 's no good.

This'll have to do.

They're clean.

I've suffered so much,

how I've suffered, I've cried so much...

because of this baby.

But I couldn't stop her...

it was her choice to leave.

She says she left because of Joice.

Edilene said she left

because of Joice.

I don't think that 's a reason.

Because when a woman likes a man

who has a good mother-in-law...

like me...

she could have stayed.

I think Edilene pities her mother,

who is also having a baby...

and the mother needs to work,

and she's always been...

the woman of the house...

she looked after

the little one...

and she'll look after this one.

That 's the problem,

that 's why they took her away.
