I find it so amazing that there are TV shows like 16 and pregnant that show what a struggle it is to be a teen parent and yet no real decrease in the number of teenage pregnancies in our society! I mean through these episodes we can see that girls from different side of the United States are all going through similar problems whether be with their partner, their families, a place to live, their education, or the financial aspect. They even show how it can affect ones youth tremendously and how even though your a good mother or trying to better yourself people always look at you different once they discover that your a teen parent!!! Still with all this pain and stuggle adolescents feel that they are capable of raising a child but do not want anything else in their lives to change when that is totally not the case. How can anyone think that raising a child would not change a thing? Reality check! It will change everything because life as you know it will take a total 180!!! But what totally disturbed me was the new movie on lifetime called the "Pregnant Pack" which is about five young girls making a pack to all have children and raise them together! Can you believe that!!! What were these little girls thinking thats totally ridicolous and not a reason why one should bring a child into this world especially without a father figure, shelter, a career, or even their own place to live! I just think televisionn needs to do more on spreading proper awareness on how to prevent the further increaseinn teenage pregnancies!!!
