BINSTOCK, Georgina y NASLUND-HADLEY, Emma. Adolescent childbearing and its impact on educational and working trajectories of women in urban neighborhoods in Paraguay. Pap. poblac [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.78, pp.15-40. ISSN 2448-7147.
This paper examines the potential consequences of teenage motherhood in the transition to adulthood focusing on two main aspects of women's life trajectories: education and work. The study is of qualitative nature and does not pretend to be a statistical assessment, but to develop a richer and more complex understanding of the impact of adolescent pregnancy on the already restricted options that poor urban women have in Paraguay. From the analysis and comparison of life histories and experiences across adolescent mothers and women who had delayed the birth of their first child until after adolescence, this paper aims to identify the ways and extent in which early motherhood influences educational and work trajectories.
