| Abstract | Adolescent pregnancy has occurred throughout America's history. Only in recent years has it been deemed an urgent crisis, as more young adolescent mothers give birth outside of marriage. At-risk circumstances associated with adolescent pregnancy include medical and health complications, less schooling and higher dropout rates, lower career aspirations, and a life encircled by poverty. While legislation for career and technical education has focused attention on special needs populations, the definition has been broadened to include single parents. This article encompasses a brief history of adolescent pregnancy in America, factors influencing adolescent pregnancy, and the consequences associated with adolescent pregnancy. The conclusion includes implications for educators, researchers, and practitioners. (As Provided). |
