I'm back...& Teen Mom

Hi Everyone! As you can see all my blog posts are gone...not sure what happened but I'm starting fresh and ready to write again. I've decided my first post wont start with all that has been going on in my life (maybe Eric and I bought a house and moved in together...NBD right?!) but to write about none other than Teen Mom. Yes, the original people from Teen Mom are back in action starting tonight...
I have mixed feelings when it comes to this show. Yes it shows the struggles these young people are going through, but to me it also glorifies bad decisions and behavior. I am 23 years old and I do not feel responsible enough in my life right now to have a child. Do I feel like I would be able to adjust and grow up if needed? Absolutely. Do I feel the young "adults" on Teen Mom have grown up? Honestly, NO. I feel that the majority of them feel as if their child has come into their life as an inconvenience.

Farrah for example, I understand that her boyfriend was killed and automatically made her a single mother but the way she treats her own parents makes me sick. Speaking of parents...My question is what role has all of their parents played in their own lives? It seems that either they aren't around, or they are barely in their own child's life to help with guiding them in the right direction to make them better parents at such a young age. Don't even get me started on Amber...if you need a refresher on who she is, she is the young brunette who seems to lay around all day, have a horrible temper, smack her boyfriend around, and is just too "tired" to take care of her own daughter. I hope she gets serious help this season because she seems to be on a down hill spiral. I don't look into tabloids much but the fact that she is still in them gives me an idea that she is still acting out and doing things not in her child's best interest.

Anyway, I've enjoyed my amazing 4 day weekend, (Happy 4th America!) and tomorrow is back to work. Thank goodness for a 3 day work week. Tomorrow is hump day already! Where does the time go?

Stay tuned for exciting things to come. :-)

Teen Mom is one of my guilty pleasures. I feel though almost ALL of them have their parent's raising their kids though. Very sad. It totally irks me when they go out because "I'm still a teen and should enjoy these years." Sorry- hun but I feel like you lost those years when the test said positive! Welcome to being a teen who is also a grow-up!
