Today is Saturday
I'm trying to finish the book on adolescent pregnancy. This is the second day of this task. Let's go.
Yesterday, I mentioned the partly impacts of adolescent motherhood, but today I will learn about how to write academically.
Social problems of adolescent pregnancy
1. The disruption of schooling and socioeconomic disadvantage
- disruption from school
- bullying
- boredom
- difficulties with particular subjects or work in general.
2. Health risks
adolescent childbearing associated with increased health risks.
- pregnancy increated HT
- premature labor
- anemia
- small babies
- neonatal morbidity or mortality.
3. Poor child outcomes
"It is equally plausible...that timing of parenting itself "does not cause children's poor outcomes. instead, background factors such as poverty that select women for early childbearing may also select their children into experiencing negative outcomes. Thus, correlations between early parenting and children's poor outcome may be noncausal.
- maladaptive relationships between mother and child
- high risk of behavioral problems
- parent-child interaction is influenced by a range of factors such as
* Financial
* Social
* Emotional
* Social support resources available to the mother.
4. Welfare and demographic issues.
adolescent pregnancy has been a focused issue because of the potential for welfare dependency.
" Many studies suggested that teenage fertility is a key mediator in the intergenerational transmission of worklessness, welfare uptake, and out-of-wedlock with and other "deviant" social norms from the generation of such populations to the next. such research did appear to be informed by a fear of a growing underclass"
From the demographic viewpoint, teenage pregnancy is one of contributing factors to population growth. In developing countries, the increase in the population represents a major obstacle t economic development. In particular, the proportion of the population being under 20, and the low ratio of workers to non-workers creates what is called "a burden of dependency".
the concern with the "growing underclass" is expressed more in terms of welfare dependency.
