Now I have a baby. And no boyfriends. As intended, the ad caused a stir and drummed up some dialogue about the issue. We wanted teens to stop and think about teen pregnancy and the possible consequences. And on that front, they've been very successful.
Critics say that the ads are disrespectful to teens and overly negative.
Teen moms offended Albert said that much of the criticism for the ads has come from adults and teen mothers who feel demonized by the campaign's message. ChickClickers who are teen moms almost universally agreed. Others were irritated that the ads insinuated that teen dads who get girls pregnant always disappear. Albert has heard similar criticism about the ads but said that they are very much based in reality. We're not saying that it's right, but it happens all the time.
