I mean, what if these were black celebs having babies? The media hasn't been particularly kind, but I think all hell would break loose if black teen stars started announcing their pregnancies...

Two teen "celebs" in two or three years doesn't a trend make. At least they know who the fathers are, and have support from them and their families. You do know that teens have sex all the time, right? Some are bound to get pregnant. Would you prefer they abort? (Check the YEARLY statistics for teen pregnancies in general.)

It's not remake of anything. It's an original screenplay (her first) by an American woman. It has nothing to do with this "trend." It's an amusing commentary on teen pregnancy/adoption/abortion/family ..etc.

That's not EVEN what I asked about...just providing examples and wondering how people, especially black people, would react if these were black teens.

Yeah, it's a lil different...the girl is Juno instead of the guy...they want to put the baby up for adoption instead of keeping it...I'd still sue...too close...she could have at least come up with a different name:smh:
