What little literature exists on teenage fatherhood paints a similarly bleak picture of young fathers. Among others, Des Rosiers-Lampe and Frappier (1981) demonstrate that teenage fathers do not involve themselves very deeply in their new role, which may seem too onerous (Cardinal Remete 1999). Furthermore, the young man often leaves the child’s mother during pregnancy or during the two years after birth (Loignon 1996).
Some young women choose to keep the baby to make up for a lack of affection, and do not want the father around. In other cases, the young man must face hostility from the young woman’s family, even if he wants to be involved in caring for the child (Loignon 1996). Contrariwise, young men often do not want to be involved or recognize their role as parent (Loignon 1996). But despite the scarcity of data and studies on teenage fatherhood, it seems plausible that some teenagers take their paternal role very seriously and fully assume their new responsibility.
