Teen Mom's Catelynn and Tyler Get College Funds

The Cast of Teen Mom Cashes in on Pregnancy: Right or Ridiculous?

by 2

Being 16 and Pregnant isn't an ideal situation, but when you're a girl put in the spotlight by MTV, there may be some benefits. From the latest coverage of Amber's weight loss and tattoo to Tyler and Catelynn's college funds, the young moms featured in the popular program Teen Mom (meant to deter high school students from becoming parents) have gained fame. And, their fifteen minutes is extending to a fourth season! Since the teens have limited resources, does it only make sense that the kids reap the rewards of allowing cameras in?

Ridiculous, especially given the recent reports of girls specfically getting pregnant just so that they can get on TV.

I think shows like this romanticize foolishness. No one needs talent to be a celebrity anymore, they just need to do something stupid and broadcast it. I don't watch mess like this. It's mind atrophying. It's nice that they'll be able to take care of their little ones with the money they've made, but I think it's at the expense of encouraging others to be just as irresponsible.
