Abstract
This thesis aims to portray the life of the teenage mother in a novel entitled With the Fire on High. This study describes the psychological condition and the role of surroundings as being a support system. This research focuses on three problems of analysis. They are; (1) How is Emoni’s life as a teenage mother described in Elizabeth Acevedo’s With the Fire on High? (2) How does Emoni’s being a teenage mother affect her psychological condition? (3) How do the people around Emoni help her to deal with her psychological condition?. This research uses qualitative as the method. The researcher uses new criticism theory to describe Emoni’s life as a teenage mother. Second, Erik Erikson’s psychosocial development theory describes Emoni’s psychological condition as a teenage mother. Whereas, the researcher used the role of surroundings being the support system theory to analyze the functions of the people around Emoni to help her deal with her psychological condition. This study shows that Emoni’s life as a teenage mother takes care of her daughter and education. Emoni is taking care of her daughter in many ways, such as prepared her daughter’s needs for daycare and giving quality time to her daughter. More than that, she takes care of her daughter’s tantrums, keeps a good attitude for her daughter, and gives her daughter a unique name. Moreover, she is also taking care of her education with hard work and passion. Emoni’s psychological condition as a teenage mother was quite good. She has role confusion as a result of the incomplete fifth stage of psychosocial development. Even so, Emoni, who is in the sixth stage, can still get through it well and get the virtue of love. The significant role of the people around has a big impact on Emoni’s psychological condition. Emoni’s most crucial source of support is from her family, her grandmother, Aunt Sarah, and her father. Besides, the support came from her best friend Angelica and her school teachers, Ms. Fuentes and Chef Ayden.
