This movie is clearly the stereotypical adult's idea of what it must be like for a pregnant teenager. I have a hard time believing it was a "true story" from a real young mother at all.I am a young mother and I have met and talked to dozens of other young mothers and none of them would have ever dreamed of acting like Tina did. Tina was concerned only with her selfish and was shallow and vain, as was everyone else in the movie.For once I'd like to see a movie about teen pregnancy where the girl wasn't only concerned with gaining weight and actually succeeded in doing something with her life and didn't treat her child like a huge annoyance and burden.O/10 for this movie.

Although I do love Lifetime and I do watch it all the time, this movie was a little cheesy. Kristine Dunst, is a great actress, I love her and I like Park Overall. The things in this movie that I hated were the attitudes of some of the characters in this film such as Tina, who is a spoiled self-centered little brat who gets whatever she wants whenever she wants it. Rachel, the younger sister who's also a brat and starts a lot of arguments. The worst one of all however is the father who has an affair. But when the baby comes they all again learn what it really means to be a family. 5 out of 5 stars.Note: If anyone knows anything about the real people and full story please write about it on the message board. Thank You.

"Fifteen and Pregnant" did not express fully the consequences of Tina's actions. The family did not choose to abort the baby, which I was pleased with, but they also put down the option of giving it up for adoption. A real family would most likely have been much more upset with Tina for getting pregnant. All in all, this movie made it seem almost okay to get pregnant, that it would all work out in the end. The movie ended with the family leaving the hospital, but the real troubles were just beginning.

Kirsten Dunst is one of my favorite Actresses. And I wanted to see every movie that she made. When I read her Filmography I wanted to see that movie. When I had to take health I learned everything, but some of my friends really didnt care but they herd both sides. When I found out that Fifteen and Pregnant was on T.V. I watched it, it was so good and it had so many detaled stuff that would really happen in real life. And this is a good movie for us teens in the world to see. It really convenced me and my friends not to have unpretected sex. Kirsten Dunst did a really good job in this movie, and what is really scary is that this movie may not convinced teens because I saw two teens that are pregnant walking to my high school. Everyone did an outstanding work in and on this movie. Everything about it is true almost. Parents are really not that relax about hearing there daughter is pregnant. But I give this movie a grade A
