In this Tuesday, February 28, 2017 photo, FARC rebel Marly Velasquez holds her 18-day-old-daughter Andry Talia during an interview outside her tent at a demobilization zone in La Carmelita in the Colombia's southwestern state of Putumayo. During times of war, constant confrontation with army soldiers and guard duties in jungle camps made raising children during the conflict difficult, if not impossible. Women were given steady supplies of contraceptives, and those who did get pregnant were presented with two options: leave the baby with the family members or end the pregnancy.
