Babygirl
is older than she looks. She's actually a college student in her
early twenties but looks more like she's in her teens. Babygirl
spends a lot of time volunteering at Homies High School doing college
recruitment work. She helps students realize their dreams of getting
into college by helping them through the application process. She
also helps them apply for and get grants and financial aid. She
especially works closely with the young Latina students..cautioning
them about the huge problem in the community with teenage pregnancy.
She warns them to be careful about sex, and to refrain from it completely
if they can. She was a love child herself and born to a teenage
mom. They had a really tough go at it...so she speaks from experience.
