A group of at least 17 teenagers in Gloucester Massachusetts made a "pregnancy pact" to all get pregnant and raise their babies together. What could be the reason for all these teenage pregnancies?

Lets look at our popular culture over the past year or so. In the celebrity category we have 17 year old Jamie Lynn Spears, sister of Britney, star of Zoey 101. She just gave birth to a baby girl the other day. Then there was the recent hit movie Juno about a pregnant teen and Knocked Up about a pregnancy from a one night stand.

Whether this is the reason or not, it might be a good idea to talk to your teens about these pregnancies. This could be a good time to use pop culture to connect in a different way, as a life lesson.
