16 AND PREGNANT - THE EPIDEMIC

There is a lot of talk about ending teen pregnancy, although by "teen pregnancy", most people really mean unwed teen pregnancy as the cause of poverty (something like 70% of current births among African Americans are to single mothers). and they talk about teen pregnancy as if it is were a pathology. Special Guests are: Tamara Allen (www.tamaraallen.com), who is/was a 4.0 Student, Academic Scholar, Teenage Mother, Cheerleader, College Dropout, Single Mother of Two, Married Mother of Four, First Lady, Blended Family, Actress, Adult Learner, Married, Separated, Reunited, Bankrupt, Foreclosure, Entrepreneur…and not necessarily in that order! These are just a few of the words that have described Tamara Allen at some point in her life! Janice Hoffman and her background comes from being Dr. John Gray's protege, teaching the first Mars Venus Workshop in 1997. That was the beginning of a 12 year relationship working with the Mars Venus Institute. She has written, spoken nationally, and coached men and women on their differences for over 15 years. Her award-winning book, Relationship Rules--12 Strategies for Creating a Love That Lasts, Venus Publishing 2007, has been endorsed and recommended by both Dr. John Gray, Men Are From Mars, and Dr. Jerry Jampolsky, author of Love Is Letting Go Of Fear. Men especially like the "How-To" part of each chapter. You can read a chapter on Amazon.com, or by going to her website at www.Relationship Rules.com. Currently she is working on, "Relationship Rules for Getting Along With Your Ex".
