PSA's

So i chose to do my PSA on single parenting. The pictures didn't come out quite as i originally pictured but they still work. here is my "copy" or the paragraph we had to write about our subject.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau there are 13.7 million single mothers and fathers currently raising their children in the U.S. and this number has remained the same since 1994. Most single parents are mothers with 82.6% and fathers only accounting for 17.4%. Whether or not the parent is a mother or father, those children are still more at risk than children with two parents. For example, single parent kids are more likely to be killed, to commit suicide, to become teen moms, to have behavioral problems, to be incarcerated, to drop out of school, and to commit rape. But don’t worry these risk factors are preventable and will not happen to everybody. If you are or know somebody who is a single parent and need help go to http://www.usa.gov/Citizen/Topics/Benefits.shtml. You may also visit
http://www.grants.gov/ . There are many other federally funded institutions that could help as well. Just remember, be a parent.
And now here are my pictures...




Hope you like them:)
