Does teen mom make teens want to have babies?

Question

I used to watch teen mom and thought the 16 and pregnant wasn't a thing anymore cause I guess i live under a rock haha. I personally do not mind the show since I watch it myself and I know they always have the "safe sex" talk/advertisement things like secret life of American teenager. while i have friends and family teen moms and i would never judge someone being a teen mom, It never made me personally want a kid as a teen but some other girls may be more impressionable. so I guess I'm just wondering how many people think the show may make being a teen mom glamorous and something to try for?

Accepted Answer

If that show made anyone want to have babies, Idk what to tell them. That show was a hot mess. Like if that played when I was 15, I think I would have taken a vow of chastity for real 😂

Answer

I think data showed it DECREASED after the show got popular.... i never looked into it though.

Answer

Off topic but I think the fact that these 'stars' keep popping out kids they can't take care of, just to stay in the limelight is problematic

Answer

I never liked this show. At this age when i used to watch it, i used to see having a child as an “issue”, almost like a negative thing. I do not like this show and wish they would take it down. 
Plus one days these babies and children on there will grow up and they don’t need this show to be like a walking shadow.

I've hated all types of teen pregnancy shows, and my anger grew when my mom and I were watching Kyle XY only to find out it got cancelled becuse, "Secret Life of an American Teenager" aired. 😤😡😤😡 still mad about it to this day.

Being 100% real here. 
When I first saw that show at 19 it killed my baby fever so hard core that I didn’t get baby fever again until I was engaged to be married at 25. 😂😂

Watching teen moms makes me afraid of babies and teenagers. So no, no baby fever after that show.
