| Abstract: |
The article discusses the complex set of factors involved in the phenomena associated with adolescent pregnancy and child bearing. The young adolescent's risk in bearing and/or rearing a handicapped child is a major factor of concern to special educators. The author describes programs aimed at reducing adolescent pregnancies and programs designed to teach knowledge of child growth and development, child care procedures, and handicapping conditions to all students so as to help them become effective parents.
