- Description:
- The purpose of this study was to explore the significance of parental relationships and their impact on pregnant teenagers. To ascertain this purpose, the following areas on teenage pregnancy were addressed by the researcher: demographics, parental relationships, parents' attitudes toward teenage sexuality, and teenagers in the family constellation, health care utilization issues, and protective measures (contraceptives). A descriptive research design was used in this study. A self-administered descriptive questionnaire was given to teenagers in the clinical setting at South Side Health Care, Inc., in Atlanta, Georgia. A population of 40 pregnant teenagers participated in this study. The results of the findings demonstrate the need to improve the parental relationships of pregnant teenagers. This study will provide social workers with a better understanding of these relationships.
