“…Higher unemployment among adolescent parents, unequal division of household labour, low income, lower levels of education, and cultural beliefs regarding corporal punishment are all conditions that are more likely to occur for adolescent parents (Afifi 2007). Zuravin and DiBlasio (1996) conducted a study comparing non-maltreating adolescent mothers and adolescent mothers who maltreated their children. The authors found that adolescent mothers who abused their children were more likely to have a mother with emotional problems, preferred to be alone during their childhood, lived with a family that received social assistance, and were less likely to have had a positive attachment to their primary mother figure.…”

“…This is not only because of its high rate, but also because of its association with social exclusion, lower social class, and lower educational attainment in mothers (e.g., Coley & Chase-Lansdale, 1998;Figueiredo, Pacheco, & Magarinho, 2005;Pacheco, Costa, & Figueiredo, 2003;Social Exclusion Unit UK, 1999;Stevens-Simon & McAnarney, 1996). It is also highly associated with mothers' depression (Deal & Holtz, 1998;Hudson, Elek, & Campbell-Grossman, 2000;Leadbeater & Linares, 1992;Prodromidis, Abrams, Field, Scafidi, & Rahdert, 1994;Troutman & Cutrona, 1990) and with subsequent poor parenting of the child (e.g., Barnard, Osofsky, Beckwith, Hammond, & Appelbaum, 1996;Hann, Osofsky, & Culp, 1996), including child maltreatment and neglect (e.g., Baranowski, Schilmoeller, & Higgins, 1990;Brown, Cohen, Johnson, & Salzinger, 1998;Zuravin & DiBlasio, 1996). In terms of prevalence, the highest European fertility rates between the ages of 15 and 19 are in the UK (0.023) followed by Portugal women with poor early relationships tend to have less satisfaction and perceive lower availability of partner's support, which in turn increase vulnerability for depression during the transition to parenthood (e.g., .…”

“…Tais condições podem ter funcionado como circunstâncias de risco, contribuindo para a gravidez na adolescên-cia, mas são igualmente susceptíveis de potencializar dificuldades e práticas de cuidados parentais menos adequadas, como podem com frequência ser observadas junto de mães adolescentes (Figueiredo, 2000;Zuravin & DiBlasio, 1996).…”

“…Os seus filhos com mais frequência tendem a morte fetal, nascimento prematuro e baixo peso à nascença (Apfel & Seitz, 1997;Botting, Rosato, & Wood, 1998;Chang, O'Brien, Nathanson, Mancini, & Witter, 2003;da Silva et al, 2003;Santos, 1997;Simões et al, 2003;Kirchengast & Hartman, 2003;Wang & Chou, 2003), ser admitidos em hospitais e ser vítimas de acidentes, ser alvo de negligência ou de abuso (Baranowski, Schilmoeller, & Higgins, 1990;Zuravin & DiBlasio, 1996), pelo que a taxa de mortalidade infantil é particularmente elevada no grupo de mães adolescentes. Observa-se ainda um maior número de crianças com atrasos no desenvolvimento cognitivo, baixo rendimento escolar, problemas de comportamento (Apfel & Seitz, 1997;Hann, Osofsky, & Culp, 1996;Miller, Miceli, Whitman, & Borkowski, 1996) e padrões inseguros de vinculação (Broussard, 1995;Frodi, Grolnick, Bridges, & Berko, 1990;Susman, Kalkose, Egeland, & Waldman, 1996).…”
