high school confidential

I have never before felt compelled to post a comment or blog or whatever the kids call it these days, but I just watched the show with Christine and Justine and just wanted to let the parents, especially the mother, know who ignorant and selfish she is! I understand that Justine was a minor at the time of her pregnancy, but it seemed pretty clear that she was not able to voice her opion about keeping the baby because of fear of her mother. It's plain to see that Justine and Christine are beautiful and intelligent girls. They didn't raise themselves so I'm assuming that the mother had a lot to do with helping to shape their characters so she must have some smarts as well, but what in the hell was the mother's reason for putting up the baby for adoption. From what I saw on tv, the family is loving, they have a nice stable home, and mostly, Justine seems like a smart and loving girl, who just made a mistake.
Why could she not keep her baby???? Sure she needs to mature and finish her education so she can make it in the world, but are you telling me that the mother was so selfish that she couldn't make a sacrifice for a few years until Justine could work and make a life for her and her baby.
I'm happy that the baby went to a loving family, but why was Justine not given a bigger say on a decision that will effect her until the day she dies.
That baby girl is going to have so many issues knowing that her biological relatives had enough money and certainly enough intelligence and resources to keep her, but because Justine was a few years shy of her 18th birthday that the selfish grandmother sent her off like a dirty pet that Justine brought home and she didn't want in her house. Some will say Justine has her whole life ahead of her and having a baby will get in the way. I say what the hell is Justine going to do in this one precious lifetime that we get that is more important than taking care of the flesh and blood that came out of her body. What career or how much money is more important than that little girl and Justine's human responsibility to her? We're not talking about a family of crack addicts or people who didn't have enough money where of course a baby would be better off with a different family. These people were an average or even above average american family who already turned out three well adjusted children, it might have been tough and the MOTHER and father might have had to sacrifice and support Justine for a while, but at least I'm sure in the end of life, Justine and her daughter would have been happy to be together. I would be terribly angry if one of my teenage daughters got pregnant, but for god's sake, they couldn't even tell Justin's mom she was pregnant until she got done with a project she was working on.......hello...... Justine's mother, you are selfish and disgusting for sending your grandaughter away. When and if Christine and Justine have children, will you love them? Of course you will, And how will those children be any different from the one you just made Justine give up for adoption? Justine, you say in the show that your mother favors Christine, guess what girlfriend, your mother doesn't even love you or else she would never give something away that came out of your body! You seem like a very intelligent girl and if I were you I would spend the rest of my life trying to get my daughter back no matter what it takes. Nothing else that you accompish in life is worth missing out on life with your daughter!

Hey, Love the show! I was just watching it and Justine just found out she was going to have a baby. I too had a baby at the age of 16. She is now 5 years old. I did not give her up for adoption. She is the most joyfull thing in my life. her father and I are no longer together. But I love my little girl, and would do anything for her. She truly saved my life!!!

i was very impressed with this show i have a daughter that just turned 13 and it gave me insight to what i might have to look forward to
