Causes and Consequences of Early Maternity

Abstract

From a statistical point of view, minor motherhood is a rarity. Getting a job, a college degree, and later decent work are priority in view of procreation decisions. Data show that in developed countries, women are becoming mothers for the first time in later life. The purpose of this article is to try to draw attention to the causes and above all the effects of too early maternity. The age of 13-15 is not suitable for being a mother, primarily because of lack of emotional and social maturity. Most often the juvenile mothers are daughters of teen, unmarried mothers, growing up in families with low education and without father's authority, in which this model of life is passed on to the next generation who are social welfare beneficiaries. Therefore, motherhood at a young age should raise the anxiety of educators and increase their scientific interest in this problem.
