GONZALEZ, Rocío Villanueva; OJEDA, Francisco Javier Robles  and  MOYEDA, Iris Xóchitl Galicia. Hacia una nueva maternidad: relatos de mujeres que fueron madres en su adolescencia. Altern. psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.15, n.23, pp. 23-31. ISSN 1405-339X.

This study describes a qualitative research on the adolescent pregnancy and maternity of eight women. Through conversations it was possible to access to the meanings about the experience of their pregnancy in the adolescence and how at this moment they carry out the maternity and their personal projects. Most of them are studing and working, and some of them are wlfes too. It implies to share the maternity with other people to be able to execute other roles. Results show two conclusions: some women are replanting they can perform several roles and not only the meternity, although not necessary in actions; other women who share this thought, put on the first place the maternity. Nevertheless, these discourses and livings reflect some trensformations in gender preassumptions about female role beyond the maternity.

Keywords : Adolescent pregnancy; adolescent maternity; gender perspective.
