Without a doubt, you can gain a lot of knowledge with YouTube. This has now proven a 17-year-old pregnant girl. With the help of a YouTube video, she gave birth to her baby without any complications. But now she has to take care of the offspring alone. Because the 21-year-old father of the child was arrested because he had impregnated the minor.
This birth actually went almost completely smoothly. A 17-year-old girl gave birth to her baby all by herself in the Indian state of Kerala. For guidance on how to deliver her baby, the girl had watched a YouTube video to that effect. The child was born healthy and cheerful. The new mother herself even cut the umbilical cord. The girl, who lives with her parents in an apartment, had apparently been able to conceal her pregnancy until the very end. In the last days before the birth, the teenager had spent a lot of time in her room, where she had also received online lessons because of the Corona pandemic. The parents had only learned of the child’s birth when they heard his cries after he was born. Subsequently, the parents had taken their bleeding daughter to a clinic. In Indian culture, sex before marriage is considered a big taboo.
For the father of the child (21), however, this incident had consequences. This was namely arrested shortly afterwards by the police, because he had impregnated the minor. In India, sex with minors is punishable. This is one of the reasons for numerous abortions in the country. Allegedly, the girl’s parents had known about the couple’s relationship. The couple was supposed to get married once the girl reached the age of consent on her 18th birthday.
