Exploring the Dual Experiences of Parenting While Being Parented

Share

Overview

This summary describes research about the relationships between young parents and their adult caregivers, with additional considerations for professionals who support young people and families who face unique adversities. Youth and families who have been impacted by the child welfare and/or juvenile justice systems, homelessness, and/or disconnection from school and work may face additional challenges that can shape the experience of young parenthood, young parents’ relationships with caregivers, and what they need from youth supporting professionals.
