16. Oh - a thought
Back in the late 80s/early 90s when the first parental consent laws where popping up, an Indiana teenager went over state lines for an abortion and ended up dying. After that, a lot of people started wearing somekind of symbolic accessory -maybe an armband or an early verision of the bracelets people wear? Maybe you could research that, have her make that bracelet or armband or whatever and wear it. When others ask her what it is, she can tell them the story of somone who would not be close to their mother's age who died from an illegal abortion before she graduated from high school.
