Being a young parent has its ups and downs. It can be both exciting and scary to have a child and to know that you are the person who will love, nurture and teach them about life.  As a young parent, you may have a lot of energy and feel committed to giving your child the best chance in life. 

But there may be times when you find it hard to balance your own needs as a young person with your child's needs. You may have to cope with money worries and you might not like having to sacrifice your social life. Getting an education and improving your job prospects becomes a challenge. Being a parent at any stage in life can be tough, but there is help and support available to help make it an easier job.
