Teenage mothers are more likely to drop out of school and one half earn a diploma. The ramifications are the mother is most likely to fall into or below poverty guidelines without a high school diploma or GED. This will impact her ability to secure safe house and meet other basic needs for herself and her child. This will also effect her ability to pursue postsecondary education and set goals for a well paying career. The child can be effected by the mother's choice by the environment due to poverty, developmental issues if the parent is unable to provide proper nutrition, afford medical care. The final ramification is that children model behaviors so if a parent doesnt emphasize an education that child will model what they have learned and is less likely to graduate as well and likely to become a teen parent as well.
