Waiting till you're ready!


Single women with dependent children make up 26% of women living in poverty. The best prevention for this? Do not put yourself in a situation where you are responsible for another person until you are able to be responsible for yourself! It is socially accepted to be selfish as a young women, but you loose that opportunity when you are a young mother. Give yourself the chance you deserve; Wait until you are ready to have a family!

The Solution:

Planned Parenthood is an organization that has been in place for over 90 years. Their main focus has been on the health and safety of women, preventing unintended pregnancies and helping families and individuals make informed decisions.
