The teen moms view their motherhood as a means of "taking responsibility", many teen mothers say this about their situation:
- keep fathers at a distance, either rejecting them outright to secure the safety of the kid, or to preserve their independence and authority over parenting
- some fathers are more involved, but mothers maintain control
- for them, this is the most responsible way to be mothers - to see
that its done right by doing it themselves
- teen moms who have been living w/ their own parents often move out to claim responsibility
- those already on their own strive by doing it themselves
- Forced by the old welfare system to give up employment to have kids, most mothers back then determined that the costs of employment after delivery outweighed the benefits of the low wages and lack of benefits
- welfare, w/ the health insurance, provided a more attractive bare bones
alternative
- for them, taking welfare was the only way to take responsibility, bc it is the only way to secure proper care for their kids
- today, though mothers are required to hold jobs while taking welfare payments, they still find that the pink collar jobs are more available to poor girls -> pay so little and have so few benefits that they tend to use up any wages in transportation, work clothes, doctors bills, and childcare
- until obamacare expanded medicare in some states,
taking welfare has been the only way to secure healthcare
- as a result, even though employed, they cont. to depend upon the welfare program to make ends meet
