Why do these young people, who are hardly more than children themselves, become parents? This volume reviews in detail the trends in and consequences of teenage sexual behavior and offers thoughtful insights on the issues of sexual initiation, contraception, pregnancy, abortion, adoption, and the well-being of adolescent families. It provides a systematic assessment of the impact of various programmatic approaches, both preventive and ameliorative, in light of the growing scientific understanding of the topic.Teenage mothersUnited StatesTeenage pregnancyUnited StatesTeenage pregnancyUnited StatesPreventionYouthSexual behaviorUnited StatesTeenage mothersTeenage pregnancyTeenage pregnancyPrevention.YouthSexual behavior306.7/088055Hayes Cheryl D1813748MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910959756803321Risking the future4367168UNINA
