This study of an urban group of unwed black adolescent girls who chose to deliver or abort a pregnancy focuses on factors in that decision associated with personal, social, and familial characteristics. Deliverers were characterized by parents and boyfriends who provided greater support for their decision than did those of the aborters, and by lower educational and financial levels, suggesting that they may have had fewer alternatives than aborters for recognition and status outside of motherhood
