Teen Mothers

By Kathleen Mullan Harris

Women who grow up in poor families begin childbearing at a younger age than nonpoor women, attain less education, work less, earn less, are dependent on federal aid, have less support from a husband, have more children, and spend more time as single mothers. This book reveals the relationship between Black teenage mothers and the welfare system.
