TheTexasnative earned media recognition for opening up about the challenges she faced when welcoming her first child, daughter Everly, at the age of 14 after becoming pregnant at the age of 13.
Maddie previously recalled: “I broke because I wasn’t used to the amount of hate I was getting.
“Just because I got pregnant I was this horrible person.
“So many people that I thought were my friends would talk behind my back and make fun of me.
“I became the laughingstock of everyone I knew.”

Maddie also opened up about the judgment that teen moms receive. She told Truly in a previous interview: “I’d always look down on teen moms if I’m being completely honest.
“I think that was just from a lack of knowing what it’s really like.
“When I actually got pregnant, I was so scared of the reaction people were gonna give.
“I did get a lot of negative reactions, a lot of hate.”
According to theCenters for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC), the US teen birth rate (births per 1,000 females aged 15 to 19 years) has been declining since 1991.
Teen birth rates continued to decline from 17.4 per 1,000 females in 2018 to 16.7 per 1,000 females in 2019.
The CDC stated that the numbers indicated another record low for USteensand a decrease of 4% from 2018, as birth rates fell 7% for females aged 15 to 17 years and 4% for females aged 18 to 19 years.
Although reasons for the declines are not clear, evidence suggests these declines are due to more teens abstaining from sexual activity and more teens who are sexually active using birth control than in previous years, the CDC noted.
However, the national public health agency also mentioned that theUSteen birth rate was still substantially higher than in other Western industrialized nations.
