Hey everybody are you going to watch “The Baby Borrowers” premiere tonight? The show that challenges real teen couples to raise a succession of children of varying ages for a few days each? Yeah, us either. But it does bring up the point, once again, that teen parenting is the new cow tipping or something. And the show would serve an important social function if they could make teens watch it to find out just how mind numbingly boring raising a family can be. But from the look of it, any teens watching at home in their basements will have turned the television off and started boinking by the first commercial break.

I’m excited for it. I think that something needs to happen to get teens on the right track.

These babies are real people in real distress. That their very real, and to them unexplainable fear and sorrow is being exploited by NBC is unconscionable. Call212 664 4444, ask for the comment line, Express your opinion. The line is checked every 30 min.

these girls still are dumb for getting pregnant in high school, pact or no pact. the baby borrowers is premiering tonight, if i had a daughter i would force her to watch. no way i’d let her make the mistake these broads made. it’s on nbc at 9.

Watched it last night. What a sad state of affairs… I think this show was meant to be more of a lesson to the parents of these spoiled-ass teenagers who have obviously not introduced the idea of ‘reality’ to these kids. People, get yer kids! Kudos to Jordan and Sasha who actually slept in separate beds: at least the world can only speculate that ya’ll are engaging in “relations”. Austin: Leave Kelly NOW! B4 she completely castrates you!

I certainly hope that it shows kids how hard it is and how much of a commitment it is instead of glamorizing it. They have to understand that it’s not a part-time gig.
