Kulmiye Posted June 25, 2008 Teen pregnancy has evolved from a shameful situation to a symbol of status in many high schools in the US, and moms of teenage daughters have seen this happen in their lifetimes. The June 2008 revelation that a teenage pregnancy pact existed at Gloucester High School in Massachusetts - resulting in 17 pregnancies in a school of 1200 students - having rocked a town that counts among its residents a large Catholic population. Last year, the school had only 4 student pregnancies in comparison. Of the girls who are currently pregnant, none are older than 16. now America is pointing fingers on the media saying Part of it may have to do with teen pregnancy films such as Juno, which some have said glosses over the very real problems teenage moms face in favor of a hip Hollywood version of life as a 'baby mama.' So who is it to blame here? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
