I was a teen who became pregnant my senior year in high school. I was fortunate enough to have a grandmother, mother, and father at home during the day at home so my daughter was taken care of. They worked grave yard, so I had a the option to continue my regular education in my high school. Many young girls do not have that option, so read my article on the options teen moms have to continue with their education. Unfortunately for me, my daughter died four months after she was born. She died of crib death (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) which I don’t believe is dealt with among teen moms, so next article may be what resources are out their for teens who have to deal with grief.

In Materniteen articles, I answer a number of questions regarding the education of teen moms.
