Is the world saying it is ok?
I don't watch much television however when I do flip through the channels I always see these hour long episodes of "16 and Pregnant", I will watch like 10 minutes of it and all of a sudden I ask myself "who the hell told these girls it was cool to get pregnant this young? So I talked about it with an associate of mine and she told me these girls on this show get paid like 60 thousand just for doing the show. The million dollar question is, why are Americans glorifying pregnant 16 year olds and why are they making it seem like it is okay to do this without being married? My mother and father always told me the right thing to do was to get a good education, make something out of myself, get married and then have kids. So that I can take care of myself with or without a man. Now there is no pun intended to the young ladies who got pregnant at 16 with no intentions on getting fame from it. But what I am disappointed in is the young ladies thinking it is cool to lay down, not wrap it up, pop out a baby while in high school and they cant take care of themselves. WHAT REALLY GETS ME...PAUSE....IS HOW THEY HAVE THESE BABIES AND WANT OTHER PEOPLE TO TAKE CARE OF THEM AS IF IT WERE SOME KIND OF ACCIDENT! I saw one chick on there who was smoking weed and was fighting...its bad enough you are having a baby or have one but what kind of example is she setting for young ladies around her age. I know a couple of girls who had babies young....did they do it to get famous? NO! And I absolutely think they should be crowned for stepping up and doing what they had to do. Whether it was playing mom and dad or just finishing school,these girls did it. I guess what I am trying to say is, young ladies under 16...save yourself for someone who is worth your time. A baby cannot raise a baby, it may look fun because they are cute and make poopies and peepee's but before you lay down and end your life (meaning your dreams will be over, your needs will no longer matter, and your money....wont be yours anymore.) think about all the time, money, lack of sleep, education, and respect you will lose just for 30 minutes of fame. Just so that when your kid grows up they can make the same mistake or be embarrassed by you. I am in no way shape or form trying to put down all the young mothers, but I am putting down the girls who get pregnant especially for the show...or because they think having a baby is cool. ALL MY RESPECT GOES OUT TO THE YOUNG MOTHERS WHO HANDLE THEIR BUSINESS IN A POSITIVE WAY...NOT FOR THE FAME AND GLORY. America is ruining our young society with this reality show, what are you going to do to help your kids of tomorrow? Think about it....when you type "16" into your google search engine what immediately comes up?
