I recently saw this movie on Lifetime movie network. WOW! This is one of the best movies that have ever seen. This movie shows just what it would be like for a teen if they were to be a parent. I was really surprised about the outcome, and I would explain more, but then you would not have any reason to watch it. This movie showed how to be responsible for your actions, and that you need to think about what you are doing before you do it. If you have ever had this type of situation happen in the family, or are expierencing it right now, I would suggest that you watch this film.

The movies where great and very educational!!!!! More Teens Should take this into consitoration I am 11 and I know more about sex and teen pregnancy then most teens do and if you have noticed the age of teen pregnancy has gotten even younger like 9 - 18!!! It is very sad to see for instance if you go into a middle school or high school you will see some pregnante girls or boys talking about how they got so and so pregnante last night or a week ago!!!! It's very sad I would hate to see our generation torn to peices because of this !!!

I bought this just for being a DVD. It really turned out that, Mom at Sixteen is really good for an eye opener for the Girls and Too Young to Be a Dad is really an Eye opener for the Boys. Of course I am not a Parent, but still good movies.

This movie was exellent and I think any pre teen or teenager from ages 11 and up should have to watch this movie because you will learn a lot. Many parents don't know that their children are having sex at a young age and don't care to get involved before it is too late. Also some of the ones that are having sex lie to their parents and/or wont discuss it and this is a good way to get invloved with your child life without embarrasing them. This movie is a realization for me and I am only 22 years old but this movie will make you realize it's best to wait before having kids, because they come first and it would be selfish to have a child if you are not ready and to understand that the child comes first. This is what this movie is about, a girl having a child while struggling to stay in school and maintain good grades and the very doubt of ever being able to go to college and having the life that she always dreamed of. The plot of this movie kept me interested untill the very end and it was a very good movie. I would recommend this to teachers to play in school and parents to buy for there teenagers! I don't have kids but this was a TOTAL realization for me and I wished that I would have seen this movie sooner!! I saw this on Lifetime but I am buying it to show my kids one day because I feel that it is important. This movie really can change your teens life, it did mine!

I Have not yet seen the DVD, but I watched it on TV once and I really liked it. I really want to get just this movie without the other movie. This movie really touched my heart. As soon as I started watching it and couldn't stop. It was one of the best movies I've ever seen!

I used this in an education class to illustrate some of the issuer with teenagers these days and how they are perceived by those around them. It's a great example of how teen pregnancy can affect life.

Im such a huge fan of lifetime movies! Both of these movies are wonderful! They show how hard it is to be a teen parent.

Parental review: highly recommend-parents should let their teens of both sexes see these two movies and then discuss them with them. Both movies show life changing consequences of teen sex. The edited quality of the Too Young To Be A Dad movie in the CD that we received was very sloppy-the sound was not well coordinated with the words, therefore rated it 4 star. Both movies are educational, well acted great stories.

I got these movies because I saw them on Lifetime when they came out and they were wonderful movies. I would recommend them to anyone interested in the subject of teen pregnancy and I feel it's gets the message out.

Two great teen movies, both movies has a all star cast. Danielle Panabaker plays a fifteen year old unwed mother. It's a star performance by Danielle. Kathy baker plays the mother her son is the father of the baby, lots of family touching moments.
