The girls are probably black, and they are probably used to being treated like garbage. My sister worked in a GED program where something like 98% of the students were black. Girls outnumbered boys by a huge margin, because they were at least trying to get their lives together; most of the boys had been assigned by their probation/parole officers, and dropped out as soon as they thought they could do so without getting sent back to jail.
One horrible detail: three girls in her class were pregnant by the same guy, who was several years older than they were (and if he had been white, statutory rape charges would have been pressed against him). One of the girls, who had probably been about 15 when she had been impregnated, decided to go to court for child support. And the other girls cut her out and even threatened to kill her for going against "their man." She had to be walked to her car for protection.
Black girls are completely beaten down by these guys. Sometimes when they are much older, they get smart. But it can take a long time. Black girls need to have more self-respect, but with NARAL there just telling them to flop over on their backs, go to the local abortion clinic and have it "taken care of," they're not going to learn that self respect any time soon.
