 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Length (>5x); date verified. Hook's offline ref accepted AGF seasoned editor. All non-lead paragraphs have offline refs; all refs appear to be RS. QPQ done. Though both hooks are interesting and both are short enough, I prefer ALT1. GTG. --Rosiestep (talk) 06:09, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Reworded the main hook; at first glance, it sounds as if she became a mother at 15, and only by slower reading is the meaning made clear. The current wording seems clearer without sacrificing anything.  Nyttend (talk) 16:30, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Works for me, thanks to both of you! :) Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 07:08, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
