| Abstract: | Summarizes evidence on adolescent pregnancy that supports the position that mandatory parental involvement legislation is beneficial for the adolescent, her family, and her family unity. D. B. Larson et al affirm an adolescent's decision about her pregnancy but also assume that other individuals, such as parents, have a responsibility and right to contribute to those decisions. The potential cost to the adolescent is not mentioned. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
