16 and pregnant

This show gives me physical anxiety.

Should this show be paired with the Duggars?

I haven't seen 16 and pregnant for so long but when  I did watch it all I did was complain. Why do we watch shows that make us pissed off? >.<

its a train wreck - and you would think it would completely scare off teens from getting pregnant - but it doesn't (total anecdote).  I hate that its a show and that its on MTV. Makes me want to cancel cable long before my kids are teens.

Teen pregnancy rates have actually gone down since the beginning of the show, and there have been some claims that it's related to the show. Certainly it's not going to stop every pregnancy, but if I were a teen watching those episodes, I'd be scared off! Those girls and their families are all crazy. 

I've been pleasantly surprised that the first three girls on this season have all breastfed though! I don't recall many girls doing that on past seasons.

This show is my guilty pleasure. I don't watch the Teen Mom shows, I think those are just tacky and fame whorish, but I really do think that 16 and Pregnant carries a strong "wear an F-ing condom you idiots" message that many teens need to see/hear.

I teach high school and had a student bragging because her cousin was on the show. He was the druggie from a few episodes ago. She was so excited that he got 1000 dollars for the show. It made me sick to my stomach.

@Chickypoo2468‌ you can watch any episode of any season on the MTV website. I've been killing time waiting to go IMO labour by rewatching 16 and pregnant all week. Lol.

I just can't with this show. I had to turn it off during Millina. The Baby-daddy-mommy seems too fake. Like she was acting...

I was before I moved. I think my internet is too slow here to watch it on my iPad and I can't ever sit in front of the computer like that.

Oh yeah, I can never get it to work on my iPad.
