I can see how Juno can be seen as glamorizing teen pregnancy.

Plus, the movie wouldn't have worked if the cast wasn't "cutesy" (and white). It was reaching a target audience that isn't disproportionately impacted by teen pregnancy. That's why the movie and whatever message it has was allowed to appear watered down and "cool" to some.
