When it comes to showing the truth of the difficulties of unexpected teenage pregnancies, MTV hasn’t shied away. It’s aired some pretty dark moments from the girls as they struggled to go through their pregnancies, and even considered alternatives like adoptions and abortions. Once they gave birth, MTV also didn’t flinch when it came to filming just how hard it was to be a young mother with minimal support.
However, it’s not just the trials of pregnancy that the show reveals. It’s also the difficulties that some girls have been strapped with just because they happened to be born with certain family members, date certain people, or have certain physical and mental complications.
