Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
what do you guys think about this??!! it's f*ckin unreal to me! i mean, i'm not a mom but i'm not oblivious to the fact that parenting isn't necessarily an easy thing. especially being a single parent. and at that age! i know sh*t happens and teens do end up pregnant but to be a teen and actually PLAN it is what's beyond me!!! one of the comments they made about it was that they thought it was "glamorous" to be pregnant..... wow. that's all i can say. and the alleged "homeless man" being the father, it could very well be true but i don't think it is. i think it's somebody (more than likely the same age as the girls) they know who chose to be the sperm donor and remain off in the cut. the homeless man bit is just a cover up for him.
this is just wild to me......

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
yes i'm replying to my own post. lol!!!
how f*cking dumb can these girls be???!!!!!
i can't even stop watching the video. i mean seriously. i can't imagine myself, 10 years ago sitting around with my friends like "man we should all just get pregnant at the same time because being pregnant and a mom is so f'n glamorous"..............
at 17 i was worrying about how my school pics was gonna turn out and if the guy on the football team was gonna ask me to go with him! lol! i mean that was the depth of my life at 17! not trying to get pregnant!!
like i said, teen pregnancy does happen because life in general happens. but damn, planning it?????????????????????????????

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
Times have changed, i'm 19 ans preg, which is still considered 'adolescent pregnancy' (untill you're 20) and i didn't plan it out...
i think the young girls think it's glamourous to be pregnant because glamourous hollywood makes it look that way... well let me tell you... it's kind of a pain in the ass at first, i don't see anything glamourous about me right now besides my make up....seriously.

times have changed and i think since it's more acceptable now than it's been in previous years that's why these broads think it's the cool thing to do and they have no idea what they're in for.
yea, 19 is adolescent but the HUGE diff between u and those broads is that you didn't plan. i don't know you but you more than likely didn't sit around daydreaming about how "glam" pregnancy is and just decide to to have a baby.
sh*t happens. they arent the first and won't be the last teen pregnancy but to take it so lightly is the biggest mistake. i mean, this is a human that's gonna be depending on them for EVERYTHING and i KNOW they have absolutely no idea what they're in for.

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
Actually...I knew this was coming.
Last year, with all the media attention on baby bumps ...being in fashion, the big thing...they /totally/ have been glamorizing the baby bumps. I knew that more young girls would be vying to get pregnant soon.
It's funny, the media now is like "why? why would girls /do/ this?"
:: sigh ::
It's not just the media...though I do think it plays a bigger part than most realize. I also think.... the idea of having someone who /has/ to love you (the way girls might think about a baby)...is very appealing to young ones who have little concept of the true and HUGE responsibilities of guiding a human being into adulthood. Many girls also grow up feeling unloved at home, not seen or understood...and I can see how easy it would be for someone so young to make this terrible choice to get pregnant.
It's very sad. Very sad.

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
That's some dumb shiet...
I was talking to my nephew's mom (my brothers ex) last night about being a teen mom. She was 15 when she had her first kid. Now she's 21 with 3 kids! And I found out that her bf is now in prison.
She was telling me how her oldest son (my nephew) is more of a "brother" to her b/c they grew up together. haha, I'm laughing b/c it's true.
She loves her kids but it's way too stressful to raise a kid on your own. When she wants to go out to parties or clubs, she calls me to watch her son. And for those teens that let their parents raise the babies... that's not fair, it was YOUR fault that you got pregnant. I know too many teens that are doing this... and I feel sorry for the kid (but maybe it's better for someone else to raise the kids).
I personally believe that the government should step in and take away these babies from their teen parents. There are so many families that would love to adopt a baby (and who actually have the money and time to raise a child).
Another thing is... anyone who has SEX, should always consider the fact that they CAN get pregnant!
When I was in high school, I was sooo worried & scared about getting pregnant. My friends always reminded me that I can get pregnant! So for my senior year, I promised myself that I would NOT have sex (I didn't want to mess up and not graduate). That that was a great thing! I kept myself busy... I got a job, a car, started tattooing!!
Ever since then, I always thought... be in a low-income situation (b/c of the cost of kids) or become succesful with loads of cash ?!?!

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
i agree hollywood glamourized pregnancy. what these girls dont realize is those celebs have millions and most hire people to pretty much raise their babies for them.
u know they just want a baby to play dress up with. they even used men just to get pregnant. their selfish fools. i felt unloved at home when i was a teenager too and would have never done something as stupid as this.

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
yeah, at my school there was enough teen pregnancy to start a DAY CARE at the school... the smart girls arent worried about being a mom at a young age, it's the stupid immature girls see other older women with them and want them... it's the girls who basically can't make thier own decisions...
a little FYI for them... babies arent accessories...here in CA there are A LOT of programs to help with mothers who cant afford everything...and its all free... like WIC pays for healthy food and baby formula.. so some STUPID girls think that this is another reason to have a child...
i'm personally against abortion as far as my own body goes, because i don't want to mess up any chance of being preg. again, but these girls should be pressured into abortion like they are pressured into having sex, is what i think...the only reason i think this way is because my younger sister was preg. @ 15 and had one, and it was horrible.. so i'm all for it for other little girls who don't know what they're REALLY doing.

i agree. they obviously don't consider the hardships that can and will follow. all they see is the "glitz" and "glam" of it. and considering they aren't famous, they won't even be seeing that side of it either. lol!
it's just very sad and i think some of it does stem from something in their childhood due to possilbe negligence of the parents or them rebelling.
i think what just baffles me is the fact that it was a big group decision. i'm sure they aren't the only ones who have wanted to get pregnant on purpose but i just never thought a situation where a whole big @ss group of girls just sat around and planned it out, ya kno??

Oh yeah, I´ve known girls like that, they´ll be like they don´t know who the baby daddy is, are pretty much homeless and still wanna have kids, JUST BECAUSE THE STATE WILL TAKE CARE OF IT... damn...that´s just plain stupid.
I´m just gonna say, U.S shouldn´t give any kind of help like the WIC etc..
In my country there´s none, nada, zero help to people, even if you´re pregnant and don´t have money , for THAT reason girls are way more conscious on having kids,and using protection, because they know if they get pregnant they´re pretty much screwed, ´cause they won´t get any money.
I found this article about teen pregnancy rates in the US.

Re: Teen pregnancy pact! WTF??!!
Idiots...I hope none of these girls is allowed to have an abortion - they should have to live with the consequences of their decisions. Yes, I said consequences because in this instance, these morons got pregnant on purpose. I heard one even went out and had sex with a 24-year-old homeless man just to be a part of this "group". It would be totally awesome if the state refused to give these girls any aid (should they try and apply for it) because what they did was wholly irresponsible and an absolute slap in the face for young mothers who accidentally ended up in the same situation.
BABIES AREN'T AN ACCESSORY!! If you're that desperate for love and attention, get a DOG!!
