Thanks, (hw question)The future for teen moms can be compromised due to the demands of parenting.?
Be careful. This is a stereotype and is based on the assumption that parenthood is what compromises their future. Many teens who become parents have already had their futures compromised - by poverty, inadequate educational services, emotional and physical abuse, peer pressure, a poor environment, and the media. Not only is there no incentive to prevent pregnancy, there may actually be a financial advantage compared to where they were before. These teens would have struggled whether they had babies or not.





Teens from more privileged backgrounds also have babies - and their futures are really not much different from their peers'. Most of them go to college, support their children, and eventually marry. They may have done things in their lives in different order from their peers, but in 10 years, they all end up in about the same place.





So be careful in assuming that parenthood is the problem. It's not. In many cases, the real problem is the circumstances that lead to early parenthood.The future for teen moms can be compromised due to the demands of parenting.?
