And, it might just be an excellent film for you to see with your teens. And, if you were worried that the film would be pro-teen pregnancy or abortion or whatever and it might offend you, don't think that way.the film is great for anyone, conservative or liberal alike.


This is definitely NOT a by-the-numbers (formulaic) film-there is a lot that is original and new. And, in hindsight, I should have just gone and seen the film when it came out, as unlike my ASSUMPTION, it was not really a glorification of teen pregnancy but a very complex film-a film with a lot of different messages and possible interpretations. Believe me, I know enough of them already! However, on a lark, I decided to finally watch the film-almost two years after it debuted.

Being a high school teacher, I wasn't impressed with the idea of seeing a movie concerning a teenage mother. When I first heard about this little film I wasn't particularly interested.
