Teenage Families
Although the occurance of teen pregnancy has declined recently, there are still many underage girls getting pregnant. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there has been a 37% drop in teen births over the past two decades. This is great news, but states in the South still have teen pregnancy rates that are too high.
Television shows such as '16 and Pregnant' and 'Teen Mom' may help young people realize that having a child is no walk in the park. It takes a lot of hard work and having a strong support system is key. What if you're a teen mother and your child's father is not in the picture? What rights do you both have? Should the father have to pay child support?
These are all questions you can ask a family law attorney. If you or someone you know is faced with these dilemmas as a teen mom, you should call one of the Myrtle Beach family law attorneys at The Mace Firm.
