Answer to Question 1

B
Grandparents who take over the complete care of the newborn may interfere with the teen's development of parent-infant attachment and adversely affect the teen's self-image and fu-ture parenting skills. Adolescents may be self-absorbed and not eager to participate in the newborn's care. Younger adolescents may very well be emotionally and mentally willing and able to participate in infant care, and the new father may wish to be part of the parenting process.
