Pregnant scouts...

I understand that this may be a touchy subject, (see rec.scouting for why :(
but it is quite reasonable for there to be pregnant scouts. Pretty much
all Scouting organizations have their top age for being a youth participant
higher than the legal age of marriage in that area. For instance, Virginia,
USA has a marriage age with parental concent of 16 and youth membership
can go all the way up to 21 (for explorers).
Couple of questions
1)has anyone actually dealt with a pregnant youth member
of their scouting organization. (Although UK, Canadian, Aussie Rovers go to 26,
stories from there are appreciated.)
2) BSA Specific: are a married couple who are youth members treated any
differently than any other two youth members of the opposite sex by
the Youth protection Policy(YPP)?
