How the risk factors would differ if Mercy lived in my community:-
1. Mercy would be given an opportunity to finish school and not giving upper hand to boys
2. She would have a career making her economically empowered hence changing or breaking the cycle of poverty and violence
3. Her girl would also be in a position to attend school
4. She would have been given an opportunity to finish school after falling pregnant
Situational triggers would also change because there would be an ease on pressure on money given that she would be earning a decent income.
