The psychosocial problems of adolescent pregnancy
include school interruption, persistent poverty,
limited vocational opportunities, separation
from the child’s father, divorce, and repeat pregnancy.
When pregnancy does interrupt an adolescent’s
education, a history of poor academic performance
usually exists.56 Having repeat births before
18 years of age has a negative effect on high school
completion. Factors associated with increased high
school completion for pregnant teenagers include
race (black teenagers fare better than do white teenagers),
being raised in a smaller family, presence of
reading materials in the home, employment of the
teenager’s mother, and having parents with higher
educational levels
