Peer reviewedAnindya Kundu; Marielisbet Perez; Colton Elliott – Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk, 2024
Research, as well as mainstream culture, may be too quick to label parenting young people of color (which we define as being under or near the age of 20 when having a child) as delinquent and "at risk".
