Teen Parents

The rates of kids having kids are lower than they have ever been. Still, more than 50 teenage girls out of every thousand get pregnant every year. These girls, along with the fathers of their children, are faced with some extremely adult choices. This book looks at the different issues that arise for teen parents, including dealing with family and friends, finishing school, and learning how to be a good parent. "What is a family?" What used to seem like a simple question has grown ever more complex. This set explores the different types of family structures that have become increasingly common in the 21st century. The books offer not only objective demographic information, but also friendly, accessible advice for kids with "nontraditional" families.
