Answer to Question 1

Yes. The medical risks for adolescent mothers and their babies are significant, especially for younger adolescent mothers (10- to 14-year-olds). For example, their risk of dying during labor and birth is two to four times higher for women at age 17 than it is for women who have children in their 20s.
