Introduction

For a young person, finishing high school and going off to college is a time of eager anticipation and perhaps a bit of fear. It is a time when old dreams can be realized and new dreams formed. Those dreams are dashed if you are young and discover that you are pregnant. All your hopes disappear in that instant. You may even think your life is over. But your life is not over. It has just changed direction.
