I think it's perfectly acceptable that they are placing some of the blame on that god awful TV show. I mean yes people need to parent their kids, but they can't just cut them off from society to do so. We can't ignore the fact that society does play a role in kids lives, and that horrible excuse for a TV show did drive many girls to purposely get pregnant so they could be on it. You can only parent your child so much before you just have to put them in a bubble. And bubbles don't work either. We put all the blame on the parents, but it can't go there. We have to face facts that parents aren't the only influence on children anymore. And the fact that anyone thought that a TV show glorifing teen pregnancies was a smart idea, it makes you worry about what's going to come next.
