These are all great tips! I really agree with teaching the class with good Visuals. A teens brain is still maturing so adding visulas instead of a lot of lecture is a great way to capture their attention. Another way to show support to teen moms is to provide Peer Breastfeeding Support. A support group for these young moms is such a proactive way to get into the community and share, learn and grow with yound women just like them and really make a change with in the society. Many times teens are stilll living under their parents roof so they tend to mother the way they are told- whether they have Breastfeeding Support or not. Their parents are the biggest influence. So maybe starting a Teen/ Parent support group for teens is the better way to go.
