Entre repressão, vergonha e culpa : o abandono escolar de uma mãe adolescente no povoado de Moita Bonita/SE

Abstract

The general objective of this Final Course Work (TCC) is to analyze the narrative of a teenage mother in order to identify challenges and expectations in her educational and maternal trajectory. To this end, a structured interview was conducted with an 18-year-old woman who has two children and was referred to in the work as Mulher. To guide the research, we asked: How can the experiences and memories of a teenage mother contribute to the reflection on women's schooling? The hypothesis that the life stories of a teenage mother demonstrate the oppression and violence that women suffer when there is a transition between motherhood and schooling was confirmed. As a result, we highlight the importance of sex education to prevent early pregnancy and ensure that adolescents have access to information about reproductive rights. We discuss how the lack of adequate support leads to school dropout and perpetuates gender inequality. The research reinforces the need for collective mobilization, involving schools, families and public policies to ensure better conditions for these young women. The study can contribute to giving visibility to their experiences and proposing strategies to guarantee a more dignified and equitable future.
