teens planning pregnancy

I agree no boys allowed!

Is it me or its a new teen trend to find it cool being pregnant?

That's really sad since obviously she doesn't know what having a baby is all about. You hardly ever feel loved by your baby the first several months because they don't know how to love for a while. She's in for quite a reality check. You give your life to that baby, they don't give their life to you. I feel bad for that girl and her baby and i hope she figures things out and she's able to be a good mom

Big negative. You're right. Her parents don't give two s*** s about her. What a shame. I'm glad that your niece seems to have a good head on her shoulders though.

Wow, some teens are completely ignorant.. As well as the parents. Letting your child's boyfriend/girlfriend spend the night is asking for so much trouble. I don't understand why parents feel the need to be friends instead of actual parents. such a shame. Teens don't need to be trying to have babies!

Exactly! My niece says that the father isn't even her bf! She used him to get a baby! I'm so glad my niece is not trying to copy her Friend! My niece tried to help her but this girl has her mind set that she don't have to be a "real" mom.... I want to cry for the baby. Teen pregnancy is NOT cute. But FAR from it!

Agree pp. That show is suppose to show the struggles of teen pregnancy. HA! It glamorizes it.

They all have new cars, nice houses & some of them have enough money to get boob jobs. It looks like they have great lives from a 15 year old girls perspective.

@spacecar his parents didn't kick him out! She was only 16 when she got pregnant and he is over 18! Its sick and I'm forever going to be sad for that baby. I feel bad for her too bc her parents are s*** !

All of this is hearsay from a 15 yr old.

Entirely possible that it's over dramatized and gossip.

@Cass my niece isn't one to lie... its not "over dramatized"... I know who her bff is! She acts like the type that would get pregnant as a teenager! She is doing it to get love and its wrong! And her friend IS pregnant! I just saw them.... that's how I talked to my niece.. duh!

Im 19 just two years older. But even when i was 17 i knew babies are expensive and need a lot of attention and responsibility. Yes the baby will love you but how much when mommy is never home. When mommy comes home smelling like alcohol or weed? You're parents dont pay you any mind so you can cross them out as a baby sitter not everybody is going to help you. People will get tired of it and let you stuggle. Get ya head together girl. You have a few weeks left. Not to mention they will take your baby away if you dont take care of it. Then you're right back where you started. No love. Im glad i waited until i moved out and got a job.

Being a teen mother is not easy. It's extremely difficult. Although I grew up way before I even got involved with sex and I wasn't trying to get pregnant, I also was not smart enough to prevent it. I would never EVER agree with TTC as a teenager. Ever. I love my son with everything I have and he loves me the same. I do everything for that little boy but some "moms" just don't get it. It blows my mind that some mothers my age don't even know that they have to teach their babies, read to them, play with them etc as if they're just gunna learn out of nowhere. I wish people would think. Having a baby young doesn't mean your child is an accessory. It is a human, it is a LIFE. NOT a toy. All of these girls are getting pregnant and think it's a piece of cake. No. Once they have that baby, they'll wish they waited. I know I did. I wish I could've been older. But I did what I did and took on the responsibility as did my baby's father because we now have to sacrifice everything and our baby comes before anyone and anything. If you're not willing to give up some of the most important things in your life or some of the simple things like partying and all of that, DON'T HAVE SEX.

my parents let my boyfriend and even my guy friends spend the night in my room when i was 17. i never got pregnant. and my parents care more about me than anything else in the world. her parents don't really have anything to do with her getting pregnant. if she wanted to have a baby, she easily could have lied saying she was going to a friends house and went to sleep with boys instead, if her parents won't let the boys stay the night. i don't think calling them bad parents is right, in my opinion. but i do not agree with ttc while being that young. granted i'm 20, but i'm also married, ready and capable of starting my family. that poor child is going to have a hard life it seems. i feel awful for that baby.
