Becoming an Unwed Mother (eBook, ePUB)

A Sociological Account

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Most unmarried women who engage in sexual intercourse do not become unwed mothers; they use contraceptives, secure an abortion, or get married. What happens to the minority of women who bear illegitimate children? This book presents a study to describe the actual situation of unwed motherhood, as opposed to the causes and pathology of deviance.
