High School insight on teenage pregnancy.

Know a teenage girl who is pregnant? Are you a teenage girl and pregnant? If you want to know what they go through or what to expect, a television show called The Secret Life of the American Teenager is the show to watch. It’s about a 15 year old girl named Amy who has sex one time with a guy she barely even knows and gets pregnant.
The Secret Life of the American Teenager is my favorite show because I can indentify with Amy’s situation. I actually knew the guy; he was my Fiancé. Making the decision whether to keep the baby or not is always hard. If you choose to keep it, you’re making a decision to bring another human being into this world and to have someone look up to you for the rest of your life. If you choose not to keep it, you have to live with that for the rest of your life.
Finding out I was pregnant in high school and having to tell my parents was the hardest part, especially since I am really involved with my family. This is another reason why I can identify with Amy on The Secret Life. She too, has to struggle with an involved family. Having friends in high school is what most people focus on. Once I got pregnant, I didn’t have friends or teachers who cared as much about teaching me. All they could think about was my growing belly. It made going to school dreadful and it made learning twice as hard.
I eventually had to be put out of school when I had the baby and it was really hard to do all of my work and be a new parent to a child. On The Secret Life, Amy struggles with being pregnant, going to school, having friends, even having a boyfriend and planning to graduate. None of those things are ever easy, but being pregnant on top of that makes it so much harder.
The Secret Life of the American Teenager is a show that I would definitely recommend to every girl entering high school. It gives you an insight to what high school is like on a normal basis and what all you have to deal with if you get pregnant.
