Pregnant girls drop out of high school and college.
Staying home to take care of kids.
Means no education, no well paying jobs.

They have to live on the good will of males, father or husband.
Who then control the finances.
Women won't have the income to own anything again.

This is like what it was like for women not that long ago.
