Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The teen mother has conflicting developmental tasks to negotiate.Adolescents must develop a personal value system; choose a vocation/career; develop body image,sexuality,and a stable identity; and attain independence from their parents.The teen who continues to go to school with an on-site day care is providing child care for her baby and finishing her education,both of which are role-appropriate.The teen whose parents care for the infant is not fully involved as a mother.The teen who needs strong encouragement to keep appointments and the teen who only plans activities one day at a time are not future oriented.
