Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research prevents the repeat unplanned pregnancy of teenage mothers, and builds a comprehensive program for mothers to build a life plan on a long-term view. From a result, if teenage mothers are in the process where a life base solidifies and a future prospect stands, concreteness came to be seen by the life plan which a mother indicates. The statement of the life plan also became one index of seeing a teenage mother's livelihood. Since a life base may change suddenly with change of a relation with a husband and parents, it is necessary to urge continuous participation to it and to understand it continuously.In order for a teenage mothers to choose and perform the life plan of hope, a family's cooperation including a husband is indispensable. I would like to examine the support method towards the family who surrounds teenage mothers, and a community.
