The Baby Borrowers-NBC New Show

Is anyone else surprised that these kids are so open about wanting to have a baby? I know that's why they're ON the show, but if I was 17 and said to my mom that I was going on a show because my boyfriend and I decided we wanted a baby, I'd be locked in my room with a chastity belt.

No i'm not suprised, I've spend a lot of time w/ people their age and you might be surprise how many of them actually think like these kids (from my experience more than 80%). I think that theoretically its a good idea for these kids to be on the show. It gives them a taste of what parenting each stage is like w/o doing any serious damage to the child or to themselves.

I guess it really depends on how well the show works. How many of these kids still wanna have kids after.

Dude, send these brats my way...there are some students at the school where I teach living this daily...the only difference is that they live with their parents, not alone in a nice home with a new car. Crap, some of them can't even drive since they don't have licenses yet.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE KIDS!! Stupid asses...I'm 32 and barely ready to start a family.
