ANSWER

ANS: 2
The greatest risk to a child of adolescent parents is derived from the parents’ strong potential to lack good parenting skills. This inability can result in both physical and emotional harm. In-creased family stressors resulting in domestic violence and statically high potential for physical and emotional abuse often result from poor parenting and coping skills. The parents’ inability to provide health care and economic support is more likely in an adolescent-headed family resulting from limited marketable skills.
