Who watches this show and what are your thoughts about this show?
I started watching around the end of the second season when Amy was about to have her baby and was able to catch up through the ABC Marathon that was running that day. I think it is an entertaining series with a lot of drama in there....I would not wish to be a teenager again though...I like the series...

I've watched since seasion one because I LOVE Molly Ringwald. It's just okay it's not amazing but just okay. I like the girl Grace and Amy's sister Ashley a lot. Amy herself drives me insane with how selfish and immature she acts a lot of the time. Most childhood mothers do not act like this so I feel that's a little exagerated. I am really glad Gorge and Annie got back together and the baby was born. The next season should be loads of fun. I really like the show Greek on ABC family too.

Yeah, it is an odd portrayal of teenage motherhood. Kind of a mix between those that end up becoming very responsible and great mothers and those that abandon their kids because they are not mature enough to handle the kid, yet. I also like Ashley and am glad she is getting a little more plot lines in the new season.

I watch it with my daughter. Whoever writes for them has never been pregnant or had a baby. The last thing you want when you're in labor is a hamburger or any food at all. In fact, the hospital won't let you have food while in labor. Regardless, the message they bring across is a good one, even if it does get a bit corny at times. Good show to watch with your teens and set the kid straight when they give misinformation.

I enjoy watching the Secret Life of the American Teenager, although sometimes the drama is pretty crazy and it just goes in a lot of repetitive circles. Basically the same stuff keeps coming up sort of randomly without the plot really moving much. It really could be a half hour episode sometimes with too much repeating sometimes.
