Interesting. I wish they would do follow ups and see what the teens are doing in a few months or a year. Sometimes the memory gets a little foggy when you are young. I have a couple friends who had kids as a teen but to this day still make mistakes around the same issues and in no way can afford another child. I can't imagine myself taking the chance of putting my child through this but it may be just like leaving your child with a babysitter which must be hard these days too. I have no kids so don't know. I have never seen this show but I can't imagine these teens don't know how to babysit and be responsible for a short time. I was babysitting at 10 which is crazy when I look back but knew how to care for a baby but that was for the short run not a day in and out. Big difference.
