in the last week my daughters have watched life of an American teenager ,a series on every Monday an 16 an pregnant on mtv an of course the pact a movie about a bunch of 15 year olds who decided to make a pact an have a baby together nice huh an I overheard the girls talking about these shows an talking about how cool it would be to have a baby it looks so easy Well I had them go an babysit for a awhile an let them know being a mom isnt like babysitting cause the moms come home an you get to leave your babysitting job but if you become a mom its 24 hours aday now on the show theyt love life of an American teen I pointed out how you never see the mom Amy with her son everyone else takes care of him while she dose what she wants an that is not how real life works now is it my imagination but is tv glamorizes teens having babies at a young age an do you talk to your teens an let them know its not a game

I personally can't stand those shows.My wife watches them... They over glamorize & over dramatize everything. It's a pathetic example.
