My chapter had a young mom, one got pregnant when I was a senior (she was on inactive academic status anyway because she was graduating early so taking a crazy courseload and doing her thesis in the same semester, oddly enough this was all planned out before the pregnancy), and another collegian had a baby this year. We've had a couple of young moms in the past, too.
I think if they want to have their own group though, that's awesome! Being active in an NPC chapter can be extremely difficult with even a part-time job sometimes, let alone a full-time, 24 hour a day job like being a parent plus school plus some way of supporting themselves - sometimes single collegians just don't get it. I know that with at least one of our young moms she had a real problem relating to the rest of the group because her situation changed so drastically in such a short time period, and none of the actives could relate.
