this movie is one of the best movies that has ever come out. it is educational as well as great. it gave a real look into the world of a pregnant teen and how she deals w/ it. this movie is a inspiration to girls who are pregnant and who aren't it shows the girls who are going to have a baby how it might be like and who are thinking about having a baby the consequences. if a girl is going to have a baby and the guy leaves her, she can watch this movie and see how a regular teen who was in that situation how she felt. Kristen Dunst did a wonderful job and was very believable. i just wish that the message would get out to other teens.

This has got be one of the worst, and most unrealistic, movies I have seen. It was obviously meant as anti teen pregnancy propaganda, and in that regard it worked. But as a movie showing how teen pregnancy really is, it was terrible.Tina's mother has got be one of the worst parents I have ever seen. I know people think (and the movie portrays) that she is a good mother for not kicking Tina out, but that's not enough. Every single thing that happened she put in a negative light. Even in the show Tina commented on it, but that was done in order to show just how naive and not ready for pregnancy Tina is.Every time Ray (the babies father) tried to do the right thing and be a father for his kid the parents kicked him away. If there was a rule book listing how to make sure someone does not want to be a father for his kids they followed every single rule!He may not be an adult, and he may not marry Tina, but he can still be a father for his kid, and he sure wanted to! But he was not allowed to.And why exactly did the teen moms have to miss graduation? They are not invalids or something, oh but wait, I forgot: this is supposed to be propaganda, so lets make pregnancy seem as bad as possible.And the teen mom in the movie? If there was ever an example of how not to be a teen mom she was it. Again we are supposed to see just how bad it is, even if it's not realistic. For example her daughter basically cried in every scene she was in, and made her mothers life as miserable as possible. Not even a single scene of her mother playing with her daughter. Or adjusting her schedule to work around nap times (and sleep times) as every real mother on the planet does.And even outright lies are not above this movie - some of the characters are discussing how many women die in childbirth and mention that it's 20%. And nowhere in the show are they ever corrected (it's more like 0.8%). Obviously in order to put some fear in the minds of the teen viewers.If you are trying to scare your teen, then sure, watch this movie. But if you want to see a show about teen pregnancy stay far far away.And if you want to see how to cope and deal with pregnancy, basically do exactly the opposite of everything in this movie.

Many girls around the country each year find themselves in these horrid positions. Kirsten Dunst did a superb job as Tina in this shockingly realistic film. I felt sorry for her as she had to put her young life on hold-- but then I didn't because she was like any fifteen-year-old girl: naive, vulnerable and harmfully impressionable. Any girl should watch this movie before giving herself away to any carnal, uncaring, hormonally imbalanced boy.

"Fifteen and Pregnant" did not express fully the consequences of Tina's actions. The family did not choose to abort the baby, which I was pleased with, but they also put down the option of giving it up for adoption. A real family would most likely have been much more upset with Tina for getting pregnant. All in all, this movie made it seem almost okay to get pregnant, that it would all work out in the end. The movie ended with the family leaving the hospital, but the real troubles were just beginning.
