This is not about Shania's mom, Sharon. First of all, Sharon had her first child, Jill, at age 18, not age 15 like the lyrics say. Secondly, Jill's biological father didn't abandon them like the lyrics imply; he was killed in a car crash.
This song is likely about Jill. Jill left home at age 14, then gave birth to Mandy, Shania's niece, at age 15 or 16.
Neither Shania nor anyone in her family will talk publicly about why Jill left home so early. Maybe the answers are right here in this song.
