- Abstract
Objective: to analyze family and social reactions to pregnancy in adolescence. Method: this is a qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory study with 21 mothers from 14 to 19 years old. The interviews were carried out in five Basic Health Units, recorded and later transcribed to enable content analysis in the Thematic Analysis modality. Results: four categories emerged: << Family reactions to adolescent pregnancy >>; << Reactions of the child´s father in the pregnancy of the adolescent >>; << Reactions of friends and society in the adolescent pregnancy >>; << Social discrimination experienced by adolescents >>. Conclusion: the revelation of pregnancy in adolescence can generate ambiguous feelings ranging from surprise, acceptance, and joy to negative reactions characterized by verbal aggression, abortion imposition, refusal of paternity and distance from friends. Some young women reported having suffered discrimination from health professionals and their mothers' friends, viewed as a bad influence.
