Visit my second blog:
An hour of quality, dramatic, tear-jerking television.
You know that I know that you know a good solid hour of TV is sometimes quite rare. But the last episode of MTV’s 16 & Pregnant had me crying from beginning to end.
16-year-old Catelynn and her boyfriend Tyler are in a predicament: keep their unborn baby girl or consider adoption? Despite pressure from their parents, Catelynn and Tyler look into adoption. The episode follows their journey through the adoption process. I was completely amazed by their maturity and discernment process, despite the nasty fights with their parents (who wanted them to keep the baby.)
I know people who are adopted, and I know people who had babies while they were in high school, but never have I seen either process so up close and personal.
BTW, this is not a stellar review of the entire series, just this particular episode. You can watch the full Catelynn and Tyler episode here. I highly suggest you have a tissue box ready.
