Sends a horrible message to 16 year olds.

Rating: 1/10 (28 December 2007)

I saw Juno last night and thought it was dreadful. I think the movie sends the WRONG message when it comes to teenage pregnancy. Teenage pregnancy is a TRAGEDY for all those involved, least of which is the innocent child who, statistically, has very little chance of becoming a successful adult. I simply do not understand why so many posters believe this movie was 'witty' or a 'feel-good' movie. Is there any doubt that teenage girls will think that Juno was cool for getting pregnant? Having sex with her boyfriend on a chair? Awful, terrible, immoral. It's bad enough we've got the Hiltons, Lohans, et al to deal with. A sharp tongued, 'bad-ass' pregnant teen with an attitude who listens to Iggy Pop is just what we need. I was equally shocked to see how many 'tweens' were in attendance. Their parents should be ashamed.
Somebody had to say this.
