Parenting and Childcare
Being a parent can have many rewards.
Your baby could make you very happy, but it can also be very hard being a young parent. There's the nappies and food and baby sitting and having a child can cost more than just money.
> Will you have to give up some things you really enjoy…your friends, going out, getting a job?
> As a parent what must you do for your child?
> If you are a lone parent, could you do with some extra help?
> As a young parent you can get advice and support on managing your money, getting benefits and finding somewhere to live.
> Or, you might want to be getting back into learning, training or work.
