"Filled with disillusionment, fear, anger, and occasionally real joy, the words of 13 teenage fathers] blend into a dramatic, eye-opening portrayal of what teen fathers face when their desires and expectations collide with reality. Sure to leave readers of both sexes thinking about the consequences of their actions."
-Booklist, October 1992
"These compelling stories let us in on scenarios from the fathering and abandoning of nine babies by age 19 to supportively juggling two different households with children."
