Teen Mom Launches PSA Campaign
With the National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy just around the corner, MTV has released a public service announcement featuring some of it’s most well known Teen Mom stars, Amber Portwood, 20, Farrah Abraham, 19, Catelynn Lowell, 19, and Maci Bookout, 19.
It’s about time!
The PSA, which runs only 15 seconds, encourages teens to abstain from sexual activity, or at the very least, to use protection. Teen Mom Catelynn Lowell, who, along with her boyfriend, Tyler Baltierra, gave their daughter Carly up for adoption during the first season of 16 & Pregnant admits that, “The night that I got pregnant I wish that me and my boyfriend were cuddling and watching a movie.”
Farrah Abraham, another 16 & Pregnant Season 1 veteran agrees, “Just cuddling is better than going all the way.”
Teen Mom, Maci Bookout, encourages girls to hold themselves accountable for knowing what services are available to them, if they do choose to be sexually active.
I wish I would have known how to get birth control…and now I do and there are tons of programs and places you can go to get birth control and to protect yourself.
While this PSA has been a long time coming, I could’ve done without the short clip of a very smug-looking Amber Portwood.
