Media Impacts

We have all seen or heard of the show "16 and Pregnant." Every season MTV fallows a group of four to five girls under the age 18 through their pregnancy,  and post pregnancy ordeals. The show it self does not narrate or ad any extra commentary to the the episodes but there is clearly no privacy or sensor ship, other than profane words, everything is lade out for the viewers to tune into.

Quite a few people believe that this show is in a way glorifying teen pregnancy. There has also been a steep increase in teen pregnancy since the show has aired. Pregnancy in the spotlight gives more incite on the subject to further my belief.
