I believe that movies like this are not appropriate because as an excuse they say they are raising "Awareness" for parents and teens about pregnacy when that is not the case at all. They just want parents to think it is okay for their kids to watch this. If you want to teach your kids about pregnancy have them watch documentaries about child birth.
I find it upsetting and twisted how the girls took pregnancy so lightly. Especially when one of the girls told the protagonist, "Don't be chicken!" You just can't get any dumber. At the end, instead of showing the girl happily playing with her baby, they should've showed some more sadder images to at least be more realistic. Poverty... a child without a father... etc.
I watched it and thought it was a very good teaching tool to tell girls about pregnancy and partying and what all can go wrong and what you have to live with and maybe regret.
i liked this movie i saw it when it was on life time. i think that it gave a nice message of its really hard to be have a kid at a young age. but it also gave my friends and i the idea of haveing kids in high school and yea that went over really well 3 of my friends of sons and 2 have duaghters. i was pregnant but she died bout 6 months along
This movie was stunning to me as to how teenage girls think, and how much goes on in their lives that parents don't know about. It highlighted for me as a parent, that there is a risk in "trusting" your child, no matter how together you think they are. I intend to use this movie to watch with my 14 year old daughter as a "teachable" moment as to real life in one particular high school. We all need to learn to have faith in our own choices and not be pressured into something wrong. This movie highlighted just easily that can happen in today's world.
its about some friends who are encouraging each other to get pregnant at 14. a few times girls are shown getting undressed. but in a really weird kind of way its send a good message.
Abortion is considered a viable option for pregnant teens while the movie fails to address the needs of their babies. OBVIOUS push for condom handouts to teenagers. The young woman who worked on the blog- the suave protagonist- admits she couldn't have an abortion because it was "too late." What does that even mean? Like Monday your baby can be aborted but Tuesday... well, it's too far along. Ridiculous message to teens.
