i dont remember hearing or seeing what grade they were in either.

the one with the cheerleader she talked about leaving in the middle of her senior year and making up the credits someone else and the one tonight her and her bf were struggling trying to graduate and he did but she didn't. the one with the baby named bentley had just graduated too.

I liked THIS weeks episode, last weeks was okay, and the other two sucked.

They call it 16 & pregnant, because it's basically the younger age & just a basic thing that it is a TEEN show, not just 16 year olds, but ALL teens.

i like that show, it shows you that thats really what teenage pregnancy is. i also like the secret life of the american teenager.

I disagree, mostly.

I do like "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" though. :]

Ha. You'll know soon enough. :] My son is a good baby, I got lucky.

haha, hopefully my little girl is a good baby.

Quoting Jen.:“ haha, hopefully my little girl is a good baby.”

Yeah. I love it. :]

I like it, but I wish it showed MORE of the hard times; IE messing up, asking for constant help, financially unstable. I do like that it sends the message to teens that its not all fun and games though.

When I was in my senior year I was about to turn 17..It matters when your birthday lands..and I think they call it 16 and pregnant..from the first girl who was actually 16...like when you see maury and they say.."I slept with my boyfriends bestfriend and im pregnant" and it's only one of them that is...(if you get what im saying) but some of them were 16..the last one was 17, her boyfriend or her..said he was 18 and she was 17..dont remember..but thats when they were talking about graduating

Quoting Ashley [[Candice's Mom]]:“ So what's your opinion of it? I watched this show for the first time today, expecting it to glamorize ... [snip!] ... and cute and sweet all the time. Quite the contrary during the first few weeks and months. Especially for a collicky baby.”

I love this show!! I'm so addicted to it!! It's real and it shows how they think everything will be perfect, fun and amazing but then they give birth and the reality of everything hits them and it shows how it is not all fun it is hard and difficult, stressful and puts a strain on every relationship they have....I just love it. It's what they need to show the reality of teens having babies...yes you can have a baby but it's hard hard work

anyone can relate, i loved when the cheerleader was like"my moms wants to be bossy all day but when the sun goes down the baby is all mine"
SO TRUE , ,,,and then she asks her mother how much would you help me at night if i needed it? and she goes ,,,not much i need my sleep,,,
