I cant fully comment on what i think about the movie because it has been years since i have seen it and have not seen it in its entirety.I know that typically 15 year olds' don't get pregnant often in our society, but if it is to happen it is the result of bad parenting skills. Spend more time at home talking with your kids instead of letting them busy themselves with television, they would be informed that sex at a young age leads to a lot of preventable problems. I feel very lucky that i was fortunate enough to be paid attention to and didn't have to look for love in the wrong places. Thanks mom!! But i really came on her to ask if anyone might have the movie and wouldn't mind uploading it on you-tube or my-space so i can truly and sincerely say how i feel about the movie. Thank you.

Although I do love Lifetime and I do watch it all the time, this movie was a little cheesy. Kristine Dunst, is a great actress, I love her and I like Park Overall. The things in this movie that I hated were the attitudes of some of the characters in this film such as Tina, who is a spoiled self-centered little brat who gets whatever she wants whenever she wants it. Rachel, the younger sister who's also a brat and starts a lot of arguments. The worst one of all however is the father who has an affair. But when the baby comes they all again learn what it really means to be a family. 5 out of 5 stars.Note: If anyone knows anything about the real people and full story please write about it on the message board. Thank You.

I am no fan of Kirsten Dunst. I think she's a terrible actress. And she manages to give what may well be her worst performance yet, as the selfish, immature, stupid Tina.This movie was a project for my Morality&Ethics class, and after studying it, I have to say it is terrible. I'm not saying that Tina's struggle was fake, but it's people like her that perpetrate this myth of stupid teenagers not knowing or understanding the consequences. And yes, I know that a great many pregnant teenagers face problems like this. I sympathize with them. But Tina's life was a disaster. Ray (the boyfriend) was a self-centered idiot, and if any of my friends found themselves stuck with a guy like that, they'd ditch him. In a heartbeat.The main problem with this movie is the characters. While they may be based on real people, they do not come across as real. Not by any stretch of the imagination. Everybody is selfish and concerned only with themselves. The only halfway likable character is her father, and the only truly likable character is the dog! What does that say?I realize that this is a very harsh review, but it's my perception. This is an utter waste. The characters are ally caricatures of the stereotypical "broken" family. Save yourself the annoyance and see a decent pregnant teenager movie - like Sugar & Spice.

In this movie a 15-year-old gets pregnant, and fears telling her parents. Although this girl is very young, she decides right off not to have an abortion or give her child up for adoption. She makes and adult decision when she decides as a mother that her child has a better chance with her than with some other family. This movie is a prime example of how teenagers will be teenagers, siblings will fight, and parents will be there until the very end. The main focus of this movie is young Tina who will soon give birth to a child. In the begining of this movie you will see how she is just a child, sand proves it in many ways. Throughout the movie you will see her grow out of immaturity in to a young woman before her child is born. All teens should have to watch this child struggle with the fact that she is going to have to be a mature woman and mother to the child on the way. There are the "religious view of others" that are strictly opinion about how this child is going to raise her baby. They are wrong. At the end of this movie it left you on a high on how her family accepted Tina and her baby. I feel that the reason they gave this impression is that the damage has been done why cause more damage to this young life who now has a child top raise? We all know what will be coming in the years ahead.
