| ATTENDING TO TEEN PREGNANCY: STRENGTHENING THE LIBERIAN FAMILY SYSTEM By: Emmanuel Dolo, Ph. D.This week I received a phone call from a reader. She read my paper weak family systems in Liberia and urged me to address the subject of teen pregnancy in a follow up article. She told me: “My teenage son is now a father. I am not working and many of his friends are also becoming fathers. The burden for caring for these children, then falls on the girls or their parents. I want you to please write something about this issue. But I do not want for you to address this issue like other people do. I want you to find a way and focus heavily on the boys and the men.” Full Story WWW.THELIBERIANJOURNAL.COM (The Liberian Journal) | |
