Did anyone else see this???? 17 teens under the age of 16 are pg at this one highschool, and upon investigation they discovered that at least 1/2 of the girls had made a pact to get pg and raise their kids together! Holy make my want to vomit! Here's the article:

That's crazy!  There will be a whole generation of messed up people in that community.  There's no way that those little girls understand what they are getting themselves into. 

It actually makes me quite sick :o(

Wow! I have to agree with some of the criticism. I've seen Juno, haven't seen Knocked Up, but you really have to wonder what kind of message is being sent to these kids! I would hope that parents (at least those who know their kids are seeing those movies) talk to them about "real life vs the movies".

These girls must not have much in the way of family and support. :(  If only they knew what they were really in for...

Wow. And how disturbing is it that the father is a 24-year-old homeless guy??

I would say that it's probably a popular thing in that school - or at least viewed that way. Those girls aren't seeing the nitty gritty of having an infant. Shoot, I'm over 10 years older than them and I STILL freak out over caring for an infant. This is a BIG deal and their first thought on finding out they're PG is that they're worried about the baby shower??

That's just disturbing on so many levels.
