The teen mom phenomenon


The newest craze in reality TV, pregnant teenagers! With the reality stars like Paris Hilton getting famous for having a sex tape and now probably going to jail, Kim Kardshian following suit. What will people do now to get their 15 minutes of fame, after sex tapes and jail goes out of style. Get pregnant really young!!!! I'm just scared on what the upcoming generations will do. The world has definitely change, the former scandalous, definitely a "you become a social pariah", scarlet letter wearing actions are no longer that ... scandalous. Before if you're a single mom you are frowned upon, with so many negative things hurled behind your back by oh so perfect church going, imeldific coifed hair personas, whose skeletons in the closet is so many its a cemetery. Now they are endorsers for milk, mommy items, etc, celebrated because they chose life. But as we have accepted this, we also want to draw the line. People still need to mature to bring up another person in this oh so crazy world. I was a young Mom too, and i can't judge that they will be bad moms, I guess i'm just hoping this will not be the next craze and increase the occurrences to more than its usual. Even CNN is reporting its a phenomenon. I don't know why MTV think this show is cool. They say it shows the struggle of young moms but it also gives them popularity which is now like a commodity more than aspiration to become somebody that is useful and advantageous to the community.
