Warning: Spoilers
What do we expect from a title as 15 and pregnant. A young girl who makes a decision that will change her life forever. We follow the life of a girl who thinks she is in love. The first love is always the one or so we think. Tiana makes a choice and ends up pregnant. When they asked her how it happened she explained that it's a sin to buy/ wear condoms and it's a sin to have sex. While religion plays a big role in society it's sad to see that kids are more willing to have sex rather than use protection. We see Tina and her boyfriend break up and how gullible she is to take him back. When he finds out she is pregnant he said he will step up and be there but he doesn't. This leaves Tina heartbroken. She was living in the fantasy that they were going to be a little happy family. What I didn't like was that because of her religion and the way her mother thinks they didn't touch up on her options. It was just she was going to have it. The father made a comment that upset Tina,":i'll be here whatever you decide". Then the parents are stressing and worrying about how they are going to financially support this child. They give her no responsibility. Meanwhile they are struggling with the fact that their teenage daughter is having a baby, they show how they are ashamed and want to keep a secret. Since they are not giving her any real responseabilty she stays thinking like a child until its time to push, only then is it becoming real. The sucky part is she has a lot to learn. The baby daddy comes to the hospital and brings his new girlfriend. The good thing is her father was there to stop him from going into the room.
