but I don’t promote it as a good thing. I don’t complain or think bad of teen mothers, but I think these shows like “16 & Pregnant” and “Teen Mom” are encouraging it. Girls have gotten pregnant on purpose at a young age for a lesser reason than being on MTV! Don’t think I’m bashing teen moms, I was one. It was hard, but I wouldn’t change it for anything in this world. I just feel like its saying “hey, if you get pregnant at 16 we’ll put you on TV!!” Not “all” teenagers are mature enough to think past that. I did get pregnant at 18, 2 months after I graduated high school!! I loved my husband (not married at the time), I had a supportive family, and before she came, I had a lot of love and help. I was lucky; a lot of teen moms don’t even have that. I just can’t bring myself to watch those shows and help in their ratings. I’ve watched ONE “16 & Pregnant” and it was a re-run of the girl who gave her baby up for adoption. There was so much talk, I had to see. I also watched the reunion, which brought on my gag reflex. Some of the things they were saying… I dunno…. I don’t “motherhood compete” w/ people, and I never bash anyone’s parenting styles, so don’t think that’s what I’m doing. I’m merely stating my opinions that these shows aren’t “opening teenagers eyes and showing them how hard it is to be pregnant and have a baby”, it’s enticing some of them… who wouldn’t want to be on MTV at 15 or 16?!?!
Enough of my opinions. I’ve been holding that in for a while. haha. Anyways, todays picture. 
Not “new” , my camera’s dead again, so just one I love.
