MTV Teen Mom Debate

The MTV show Teen Mom 2 is coming back to television starting on December 6 to start its new season. I have heard a lot of hoopla about this show in the past and am starting to hear it again as it will soon be back. There has been a lot of conflict about Teen Mom and whether it is appropriate to have a show on MTV, which is known for younger audiences, about teenagers having babies out of wedlock and at such a young age. I myself do watch this show and find it to be entertaining, as do a lot of people I know. I have heard many people say that this show makes them feel better about their own lives because they are so much better off than the girls on the show. I find it very interesting that people are now watching television to make themselves feel better about their personal lives, and not just as a way to be entertained. Many of the girls on this show live in less than ideal situations, but about half have made the best out of their situations and have tried to live a happy life. I still feel bad for all of the girls on this show because they are exploiting their lives, and the lives of their children, to make money. They are so desperate to make money to support their children that they need to be filmed and have an audience who watches the show to make their lives look better than the ones on TV.
