Families are everything. Not only do they have a huge impact on the world we live in, in respect to the government and the economy, but they have a massive impact on individuals. Whether you are the parent of a teen parent, or the teen parent yourself, family is important in this time. However, family can be bigger than the one you were simply given at birth. Family can extend to friends, and many others. Having that support system of family, through this time will play a major role in your life, and your child's.
