16 & Pregnant: When A Grandma Is A Dope Fiend
Latest
The situation surrounding the teenage pregnant couple on last night’s 90-minute season finale was probably the best argument for abortion or adoption that this series has featured, as they had no income, no home, and were forced to live with an opiate addict. Still, the teens chose to raise their child. Allie, a high school senior, moved to Texas to live with her father because her mother, who lives in New Jersey, couldn’t afford to care for her. Allie had been dating her boyfriend Joey, a high school sophomore, for only two months when she discovered that she was pregnant. Her father kicked her out of his house, so she was forced to move in with Joey’s family. Although Allie’s mother promised to help out remotely and come visit when the baby was born, she sent a gift card with a $20 credit and missed the baby’s birth.
