YouTube - Teenage Pregnancy Video

Did anybody catch this?

Do you think it will work?

 

not credible.

 

What's not credible?

 

It might do.

I'm watching it now.

 

that its an actual birth, which it is not

apparently its cautionary, like a "public service announcement" type thing...but nothing about the supposed birth makes much sense.

i do support contraception and the right to abortions, but don't think this is an effective way to promote caution among youth.

 

hilarious!!! :smilielol5::smilielol5::smilielol5::smilielol5: thats going to happen to EVERY teen girl that gets pregnant! ahahahaha... ahahahahahahaha!!!

 

They should have called it "teenage sex"....views would be in the billions

 

ahahahah i love how they are all crowding around like they really wanna see that nastiness happen.. aahahahahahahaha!! oh geez... funny!

 

on a school athletic field, another student covered in blood delivering the baby, not an adult in sight....another kid with a nice camera managed to get there, at the end of the delivery, before any adults knew about it, before an ambulance was called to take her to the hospital....the entirety of her labor on a sports field....



and with a totally natural childbirth, i would imagine her screams should be far more bloodcurdling...

 

Obviously upto a point it is supposed to be real...
I think it is more the message it is trying to convey that is important.

 

Can’t wait for the score of copycat videos which follow :cheers2:

You're all thinking about it like adults.
It will probably have the desired effect on some kids.
Not to the extent they want it, but it will change some kids.

 

whatever, it will make girls who are starved for attention get preggo and try to have the baby at school......... in front of everyone. ewww

 

thats ridiculous. getting pregnant first requires her to get a man to impregnate her, and getting a man provides all the attention any female could ever want or need.



....right?

:leaving:

 

i want to see a video of a girl giving birth to a litter of puppies on a school field

 

That's true. It would have worked on me.

 

you would think so but not quite......... there were at least 5 girls at my school who pretended to be pregnant every other damn month to get people to talk about them. fucking LAME! if they had seen they could get a bigger crowd by actually making it happen, those crazy bitches probably would have done it

 

I can imagine some girls doing that.

You can't prevent all types of stupidity.

If this just moves some girls away from a rose tinted image of pregnancy...then I think it has done it's job.

 

I was hoping for something more exotic :toetap05:

Exactly, it's not going to help all girls. There will always be those stupid ones who don't quite get it, and the clever ones who see right through it but if I'd seen that advert on tv, yes it would've said something to me.

And afterall, I'm the target market, right?

Also, nesta, i want to see that too.
