Government, politicians and the media perpetuate prejudice and inequality by repeating the lie that teenage mothers place irresponsible burdens on the state. Public service employers should question their approach to teenage women and accept that they have as much right to make choices about pregnancy and motherhood as everyone else. Society should confront the causes of teenage pregnancy, such as inadequate education and employment opportunities, not the women themselves. Teenage mothers need our support and at least equal treatment, and recognition that a young mother is not necessarily a bad mother.
