Social exclusion and teenage motherhood in Australia

我们目前对少女母亲的理解描绘了少女母亲及其婴儿生活的一幅非常严峻的画面。过度依赖福利制度和社会孤立导致教育、就业和生产关系的机会不足，是加剧社会排斥和削弱社会的社会和经济结构的原因。该项目为澳大利亚社区和青少年母亲及其子女提供了巨大的利益。更深入的了解将导致更好地设计支持系统和年轻母亲及其子女的方案。

Our current understanding of teenage motherhood paints a very grim picture of the lives of teenage mothers and their babies. An over-reliance on the welfare system and social isolation lead to inadequate opportunities for education, employment and productive relationships and are responsible for enhancing social exclusion and weakening a society's social and economic fabric. This project provides great benefit to both the Australian community and individual teenage mothers and their children. A deeper understanding will lead to better design of support systems and programs for young mothers and their children.
