    Question

    I'm 14 years old and have a 1-year-old. His father was not around, but when he can back he started to verbally abuse me. He's not supportive at all. I have no family support. Is there some place I can go for help?

    Answer

    Google "teen parent programs in Queens" or call your local Planned Parenthood office for resources. You can also ask the baby's pediatrician. Being a teenager and parent is tough -- do not try to do it alone! You are not alone!
