• VJ Denise’s Thoughts on 16 & Pregnant Episode 5 – ‘Whitney’Posted December 20th, 2009 At 11:30 am By MTV ASIA

    This definitely tops the list. Both mom and daughter are preggers at the same time! Imagine my face when I first saw two women, instead of one pregnant! On top of that, it seems Grandma is taking care of 2 kids at the same time!

    I like how ideas of abortion and adoption came up though, I do not abhor abortion but at least she was able to give the idea of adoption a slight thought instead of stubbornly thinking she will definitely deliver the child.

    While Whitney may have had many friends in school, but because of her bulging tummy, she dropped out and barely left the house.

    After what seemed like ages, she decided to make her first trip to the mall with her best friend. And when she did, she felt like all eyes were on her. The stares and then losing her dog, just made her sink further into depression!

    The stares were crazy though.

    ‘A lot of people think if they hang out with me, they will become pregnant too!’

    Oh and finally, like FINALLY! In this episode, we have a sweet and handsome guy who just seems so chill and cool about everything. I am sure he is just as scared but he is definitely trying his best to hide it all and support Whitney.

    Thank goodness for Whitney though, that she has a boyfriend who seems more like the mommy! And the best part? Not a hint of complaints!

    As with most teenage couples, money is an issue as always. Why they would even bother looking at such a nice house when their finances obviously cannot be better off than Grandma’s just doesn’t make sense. Maybe they just wanted to try their luck? I don’t know… Well, in the end, they did get a rather nice place. Perhaps a tad bit too easy, they just seem to be taken care of and not given a chance to stand on their own two feet

    Coupled with the stress of living with two pregnant women in that small space, you cannot blame grandma for blowing her top when Whitney joked with her over that really ‘interesting’ mug. HAHA! Her stuff is whack though!

    When Whitney’s baby was born, it was so funny watching how Whitney took care of her. It was hilarious! Especially when he peed on her!

    The last episode is next week, and man, this has definitely been a journey! Thanks for all the comments and I hope you guys enjoyed the show as much as I have!

    Much Love,

      I think that’s just stupid. How do you expect to look after a child without any money???
      -Sheesh-
