Channel 4 (UK) Documentaries - 2016x102 19 Kids and Counting

This film follows the lives of young mothers who have ended up in a YMCA hostel when they found themselves pregnant and homeless. Shot over several months, this observational documentary follows five young mothers spending the first year of their baby's life in a hostel. Every year, thousands of teen mothers and mums-to-be become homeless. Rising private rents, a shortage of affordable housing and benefit cuts mean more and more young parents find themselves living in unsuitable accommodation, B&Bs or night shelters. This film focuses on five mothers and their journey towards independence over 12 months. The mothers tell their stories in their own words, giving a unique and surprising perspective on what it's really like to become a parent in your teens when you don't have a home.
