    Perfecto for older teens and tweens. VERY EDUCATING!

    I loved this book I am a teen and i may have read this book because it was on the topic of teen parenthood and the struggles during and after pregnancy. This does not advertise sexually active teens for any reason. Sure they have sex but whats the big whoop ive done it and im a perfectly healthy teen. This book was awesome!

    Taking Responsibilities Over Your Actions

    I think that this navel give a really good message to teen parents. The reason that I think that it give a good message it because they are taking the responsibility of their own actions.

    Perfect for families who struggle with talking to their teens about sex

    There are many of teens now that are having sex. With this book coming from a males perspective about how it is not as easy as it looks to raise a baby, especially since he is doing it on his own.

    A great becoming of age kind of story.

    This story gives situations in which having a kid isn't always 100% amazing. A 16 year old fools around with his gf, and wouldn't you know it.. A baby. There story alters from past to present to come to an unfortunate climax. READ IT!

    Topics

    This book is a flip on from what is common in the teenage land. Many teen girls get pregnant before they are married. But this book shows you how teen fathers are when they are faced with this problem. The book starts off slow. Where Bobby is met by his girlfriend Nia outside his house where she tells him that she is pregnant. Meanwhile they tell their parents. Start doctor visits. At the end Nia goes into labor and basicly goes brain dead. Either way the book is a flip because it's starts off with Bobby having the baby and then the next chapter will be before the baby. This an A+ book

    i had to read this book for school and i ended up really liking it. it has a lot to do with stuff that is going on right now in life and my school. at the end i was kinda confused on the switch from "now and then" to "nia and heaven" but the book was really good. and it has to do with stuff in real life that is happening now.
