I was watching tv the other day and recognized someone I used to know being interviewed about a program, called Stepping Stones (based in Vancouver), devoted to helping teen moms. One year, my caregroup got involved with their Christmas drive. It turns out that the program has been nominated as a City Hero by one of our local tv stations. That is pretty neat.
I don’t really recall many teen moms in my high school, but maybe that is because they didn’t come. Some research says that if your mom was a teen mom, you are more likely to be a teen mom yourself. A cycle of poverty can be difficult to break.
