I dont think you can really blame the girls for getting pregnant at such a young age. With 5 generations of teen parents they've been taught that it's normal and fine, and it's a cycle that's incredibly difficult to break. Hopefully their kids wont go though the same thing
It's not incredibly difficult to break, they have so many options, abstinence, condoms, birth control. She said it herself and hey didn't attempt to use any protection. Seeing 2/3 generations around her do this, should have been eye opening enough to say no thank you to this lifestyle. All of them baby mothers I don't care who STILL In a relationship nobody is married. NOT even the military man married her. That's the quickest way to get more income and even medical insurance for her right in state.
I don't know about in the US but the welfare system in Australia is designed in a way that you get more money and living benefits to keep pumping out kids rather than getting a job. It's wrong. A teen pregnancy "by accident" I can possibly believe once, I don't believe a second time is an accident it was a choice
Teenagers are going to do what they want regardless of how many times you tell them not to, and exactly this show is to help encourage other teens not to do what they did. Regardless babies are blessings so shut your mouth @bries thoughts 😘
They're kids from single moms. Moms can't be home even they have to work. It creates a cycle of struggle. The lack of emotional availability from a mom who works can be hard. It can be easy to want a family and want a partner. It's not a moral issue. It's an economic issue. They did the best they could when they could.
Pathetic excuse for a man. What a terrible example he’s leaving for his daughter. Imagine his daughter dating a man like him. So awful. The fact that she puts up with it is despicable.
Good for Dee, saying he didn't know what he wanted to do with his life but wanted to be the best man, husband, and dad he could be. He stepped up and most boys could never do that good for you 👍 Unlike that brat Alex
I think because they are used to it. It’s like being nose blind to a really stinky smell because the nostrils have become used too used to smelling shit.
Chile parent’s agree that 18 is grown and pour their children liquor 🤦♀️ I agree! You’re not grown till you can buy alcohol cigarettes and not need a co signer for your own place
felt bad for the dad when she said “shouldn’t be in the military then” and the dad was like “well hey had to provide” like girl support ur damn man wtf😂
THANK YOU. My fiancé is in the military. He did it to avoid some serious student debt. Yeah, the drills and camps suck, but he's doing what he needs to do.
I stopped the clip after that. I don’t know them but I feel bad for him. He seems responsible and she’s trying to be a famous TikTok Mom 🤦🏾♀️🙅🏾♀️ That kid is adorable 🥰
LITERALLY. Like ma'am, he's supporting not only himself but you, your child, and the child that's coming. I looked so confused when she said that. He's doing what a lot of boys his age refuse to do. Be responsible. Like she has a whole man while her OLDER sister is with a boy who wants to get another girl pregnant and isn't with his family. Like... Damn
@@laural7373 They don't have to it's the way they act. Most people don't think it's "normal" to have a few kids before you're 20. She's acting like it's cute.
no B she isnt acting like its cute. she is just showing how her journey is going for her, if she is doing ok, why should she act out a mental breakdown or something so she wouldnt make something "cute"?
I mean like, it is what it is & it's not like they can shove the baby back inside. Instead of judging teen moms, maybe you should take that energy and advocate for better sex ed, or free birth control, or for adequate supports for young families.
As a veteran, I wanted to punch her in the face for that comment. She has no idea how good she has it and how hard she could have been struggling instead.
@@jenniferwilliams5478yeah also even better I heard for families in America it might vary in states and family financial problems but u can get around $1,800 on average per month I think that’s a lot for a teenager considering im one and I think that’s alot (I’m ot American btw)
I don’t think it’s so simple. My colleague was a teen mother but later on got a degree and ended up becoming a doctor. She always says she taught her children to be different but her daughter is also pregnant at 15. I think it becomes something very hardwired into your background, and it’s hard to break free. My colleague is now 35ish and a grandma :/ :/
It's beautiful to be a younger mother who can play with the kids. All these old washed up 30 something year old moms just want to sit and put their kids in programs so they don't have to parent!
@@galactichoneyxo117 You think 30s is a washed up age??? Wtf? I sense projection and insecurity from you, because that’s the perfect age to raise children based on stability and maturity. You cant pay for life experiences and lessons or growing pains.
Right so ungrateful ... if they both stayed at home to film dance videos they wouldn't live in a house like that with all the commodities that I am sure she enjoys
@@iamelote bruh wtf y'all always try to bring this up but what teen doesn't know about safe sex these days? 😭 i mean kids as young as 10 are being exposed to those topics? i was 10 or 9 myself when i was taught about the importance of safe sex, periods, STIs such as HIV, etc. im 15 now and i've taught myself more about it through the internet. if you’re not well informed about sex then you shouldn’t be having it in the first place and if no one’s teaching you about it then teach yourself don’t just sit around expecting someone to do it for you. i feel like a lot of y'all just don't realize that people simply choose to not use the resources they have sometimes and then wonder why they got pregnant 🙄
@@recvq6158 So, you’re obviously coming from a privileged background and aren’t aware of what growing up in religious strongholds is like. Sex Ed is not taught in all schools and many parents in certain areas of the country do not ever discuss sex with their teens and even threaten to disown them if they ever dare have sex. I’m glad you grew up in a good environment, but much like you shouldn’t have sex if you’re not informed about it, you also shouldn’t speak on social issues that you aren’t informed about. Also, in a lot of locations, birth control is impossible to access without your parents knowing and growing up in small towns where everyone knows you and will tell your parents makes buying condoms pretty difficult.
@@iamelote well there really isnt any incentive to have safe sex especially for stds when most children don’t have stds so its alot safer and even if they are on birth control it can fail so it kind of just gives a green light to go ahead and do it without worry when in reality pregnancy is a 1-100 time chance per sexual interaction with most hormonal birth controls
Why the hell is a 17 almost 18 year old man getting with a 14 just turned 15 year old girl. That’s disgusting. Their in two completely different mind frames.
THANK YOU!! I’ve been looking for someone to point this out it’s just outright gross and I don’t even think it’s legal ( I don’t live in America so I don’t know )
Lol … 18 and 20 aren’t that young to have kids … some people MARRY at that age .. go into the military at that age .. who’s to say they can’t be parents as well ?
@@Bigbodybenz397well they aren’t saying that no one that age can. But rather that they themselves aren’t ready for it. Which is becoming the norm. The age where people become parents is increasing a lot in developed countries due to financial situations or work priorities. As many people want to plan on having a kid when they are financially secure. The average age these days in North America is 27-30.
LOL, I love how all the women in this reply section, as well as the original commenter, acted like the girl is totally innocent and a victim, oh yeah it's all about the man stepping up and being blamed, the girl was so responsible to get herself pregnant as a teenager, because that's really intelligent life choices right there! The girl is a $¢umbag, she's clearly too uneducated to think about her actions, now her children are going to suffer because of it, learn to keep your legs closed ladies, until you are an adult, have been in a stable relationship for at least 4-5 years, and can financially support and house a child! Instead of going off and sleeping with men for fun and then expecting everything to be perfect afterwards! TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY AND BE SENSIBLE!
My biological father left soon after my mother found out she was pregnant with me, left her with a six year old and a four year old. They had been married for about seven years. He wanted the pleasure of procreation without the responsibility of raising what he created. They were divorced three years later. He only came to visit three times before i was five years old because he was too lazy to work to have the money for child support. I have no memories of him.
My son is finna be 2 in December only time his father sees him if he runs into us somewhere cause we stay in the same city . I got tired of blowing his phone up to do his part and just let him be .
@Live Life On Your Own Terms Condoms, diaphragm, female condom! These have no hormones and are completely safe unless your allergic to latex! So I’m not sure what your talking about!
@@jenniferwilliams5478oh definitely! You make an appointment online, go to the office, wait for like an hour to be called, verify your information with medical records, license, birth certificate, etc and you’re all set with a card. I swear, these hillbillies have no concept of the internet or safe sex.
I worked with a forty something guy who said he did this when he was younger. He was kind of bragging a little but I said shame on you and he was surprised like no one ever told him that before
“well you shouldn’t have joined the military” meanwhile all she does is sit at home while his MILITARY job provides for all of them . like what is that to say ?! he’s doing his job as a man & taking care of his responsibilities. there’s a lot of men who don’t .. i mean just look at her sister’s situation . she should be way more appreciative
She doesn’t just sit at home she takes care of her baby while pregnant and takes care of the house hold that a job! I have disagree with what she said tho he’s being a man an responsible and so is she she just shouldn’t of said that it was fukd up
I agree. She's not even his wife. Just a damn girlfriend. She seems the type to cheat on him if and when he gets deployed. She's complaining meanwhile she lives in a nice house she didn't even earn.
Love how he said… “well I gotta provide”… he’s so young but yet knows what he needs to do as a man… there should be many more young men like that… Funny young girls still don’t understand the sacrifices a good responsible father does for his growing family!
Nah, he did it in a selfish way. He even said "I gotta provide for ME and my family" when it should be my family and I. Whole situation is weird. They're 3 years apart. So she was 14 or 15 when she got pregnant, so he was 17 or 18. Eeek. He probably joined the military to get away from her 😂
HOLD UP, HOLD UP, HOLD UP! This is the most calmest person I’ve ever seen in my entire life to someone who has cheated on them, plus got their sidechick pregnant, & on TOP OF THAT she’s accepting him BACK?! The fuck? The fact that Alex is claiming he loves her etc is bullshit to my ears. You knew what the fuck you were doing to the other girl & now you’re switching sides? Bro... Be careful who you have children with. I respect Tiarra already but especially since she admitted she was young & dumb in the very beginning. Lots of teens are in denial. “Give me my drinkie.” I actually say “drinkie”, too sometimes...heh, heh. 5 generations. I've never heard it go that far before As far as Tyra goes...her, her sister, & cousin all got pregnant around the same time the 1st round. & here we are again...both pregnant except Tyra this time. I swear, these girls are planning pregnancy packs on purpose. LOL! That’s crazy how she (Tiarra) has to go back every so often with the trip being far away. I know this show is called Unexpected but I’m sure Tiarra planned this 2nd pregnancy. Unpopular opinion: If their cousin Taylor was bald, she'd look like Caillou.
Tiara needs to STFU she's sleeping with D who "allegedly' messed around with a couple of her OWN cousins before Tiara and she definitely needs to get her some birth control.
@@zzzroxyzzz I totally disagree with you. I mean a lot of teens are curious about sex and wants to do it so you can't really keep them away from them because one day they will do it behind their parents back tbh.
@@itz_corbis1784 that doesn't mean what I said isn't true though so I'm not sure what you're getting at, our kids need to understand the heavy load mentally and sometimes physically that comes with having sex before you're actually ready
i cant understand why people chose to throw their education away to stay home and get pregnant as teenagers. a whole life ahead of you that you still have to figure out how to navigate but now you can’t make a mistake because that mistake doesn’t just affect you, it’s an innocent child feeling the repercussions
You see how many generations of teen parents they have in their family? These chicks don’t know any better. Hopefully this next generation doesn’t make the same mistakes.
I was a teen mom almost 19 years ago. I got a triple major bachelors degree, got into law school, and my child is headed to college this year childless. The stereotype of teen moms has gotten so old. Anyone can throw their life away no matter what age.
It takes 6-8 weeks and that’s IF you even get it. Plus some social security offices are doing appointments only and that can take over a month to get in some.
As a Mom I can protect my child in anything life throws at them except teen pregnancy, you my child must protect yourself don't trust anyone else to do it for you!
@@Elly339 yes as I was raised in a open home where you ask questions you get age appropriate answers. My home once everyone at the table had been to a sex ed class the topic was open at the dinning room table. Each child did get a private talk.
@@Elly339 teens will ignore that and do the opposite thats what y'all dont understand 😭 regardless of how much you've taught them there will ALWAYS be some teens that choose to neglect that information
Damn, this family is sad af. All of them are teen mothers!!!! It's weird as hell, we are in 2022 and NONE of ya'll decide to go take the stance to learn about safe sex, and protection?
Excellent Point. I am old school and I just never thought of playing side kick with my Mom. Is being a young Mom about competing with older Moms? So dumb...
Second baby at 18, I’m so glad my daughter has her head screwed on and getting her Masters degree and is 24 these young girls think this is all to life having babies it’s sad
Okkk! First of all, I was 18 when I had my daughter too.. Now I’ve become successful enough to be in grad schools. Can the stigma and stereotypes stop against young women that become moms? Yes, it’s not a good idea, but it doesn’t mean you can’t have your “head screwed” and become successful. Period!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's absolutely no reason for teen pregnancy these days. Abstinence or birth control. Education should always be encouraged, or be prepared for a hard road of poverty. With or without a so called "partner."
@@malkaringel7864 a young teen isn't going to always know to search that kind of thing. I never had a parent or a trusted teacher to help me. It was abstinence only where I went to school and it was an unspoken rule. Some teens just never learn sexual health
@@holley9170 I thought young teens are computer savvy? I'll agree that you may have a point. It's an embarrassing topic for most. I'm a senior now & my young teen years were long ago - the 1970's. Still at 16 I had my own place & went to my family doctor for birth control pills. (Working in pharmacy as lab technician may have helped) I'm intelligent & was wise beyond my years. Lord help us. Young girls having babies....not good. Why was I smart enough to prevent unwanted pregnancy & others just hope for the best?
18 is still an adult & tiara can still support a family financially more than most moms. Age of consent in a lot of states is 16, thus you are able to conceive at 16. she has a lot of bread from her man & the show combined. Yea she could be ‘living her life while she’s young’ but if she enjoys being a mom and is able to financially support a family ,who cares. It’s not like she’s broke and a single mom struggling, she got a man and money, and an adult 🤷🏻♀️I agree 18 is young asl but she’s still doing that shi better than most 21 year olds and older adults in general
I don't recommend teens getting pregnant. Try time wait until 25 @least. Life is crazy & have enjoy ur teen years without BS. But heck, I don't have a house..so , they got one up on me.
I’m 24 , a college graduate and engaged and I’m still deciding if I want kids. I couldn’t imagine 2 at my age but as you said they have a one up with the house so no judgement 😂
Why is it that nature allowed thick people to create? None if these people come across as having common sense. Who is paying for these children, the roof over their heads, food on their table, etc? My daughter is 25 years old, and I’m so glad she’s got her head screwed on. Why can’t these kids get an education, get a job, get a home, find a decent person, get married, and then have a child. That way you’ve lived, you’ve met the right man, you’re financially dependent, and you have common sense. Life is too easy
Women do all that and still make horrible choices in partner's 95% of the time. Because they're hardly a step above children and their maturation/personality development stops when they open their legs and learn thats all they have to do to get what they want. Most walking around are age 13-16 mentally even in professional settings.
Just because you don’t go to college doesn’t mean you throw away education. With good support they could go to college if they wanted to. 18 is still an adult & tiara can still support a family financially more than most moms. Age of consent in a lot of states is 16, thus you are able to conceive at 16. she has a lot of bread from her man & the show combined. Yea she could be ‘living her life while she’s young’ but if she enjoys being a mom and is able to financially support a family ,who cares.

@@ungrateful-66 why would you even say something like this on the internet..? Makes you sound like ur proud or something.I hope your sister cut you out of her life and the baby’s. You sound jealous of her or toxic.
you should come to my country, my parents would disown my own sister if she got pregnant during high school, you guys are so chill. Well thats good you dont have strict parents. you should be thankful your parents are sweet hearted.
Soo fucking bizarre having so many teen moms. 😳 Apparently none of them have been taught any different. Also I feel so sad for her fiancé feeling like he had to go into the military to provide, definitely a stand up guy, but sad
I think tyra is just gorgeous, i didnt agree with her choosing to live on campus and go cheer instead of being a mom. And i think that contributed to Alex cheating. Which seemed like an issue before anyways but still she stays with him. She needs to just leave, but shes only been with him since she was 14 and the only person shes been with
@@kikigam7113 but the thing is, she is a mom. You have to give up alot to be a parent at any age. And she did see extremely flirty with the guys on the team
Dee doesn't seem happy with his baby mom's. He is very critical and judgemental of her. He just sits back in every option every opportunity big or small he just rolls his eyes and shakes his head and refers to her as his life partner. Clearly he doesn't want to put a ring on it. He also has no understanding or empathy for what she goes through he seems to be extremely self-absorbed all about him it's his choices and everybody has to follow him follow him well he shows her no empathy and kindness for what she goes through. Although Dee is a good provider at this time he's real judgmental critical not empathetic and very self-absorbed all about him. Recipe for disaster.
It’s not like he’s wrong… lol imagine your partner making all of those bad decisions and bitching at you when you have a career that provides for the family and you put up with everything for your family…. At least he’s staying.. he shouldn’t have to parent his partner
Honestly I think he’s just depressed. His girlfriend seems to not be thankful for him at all, he has no freedom, he’s constantly doing something lol (no breaks) when he’s deployed he’s working and then when he’s home he has babies to take care of! Shi I would be depressed too 😭
@@sophthekittie imagine deciding to have children with someone knowing they make terrible decisions, then judge them when they continue to make bad decisions.
Imagine e all of these teens have not had the best parenting themselves. How can you act as adult when know one has ever taught you anything about life
@@KrisB82 they were kids so how was he supposed to know lol yall gaslighting these lil white girls but women of color would be look at totally different
I’ve only watched clips of this show and not the actual show so I don’t feel like I can necessarily say this, and please correct me if I’m wrong, but from what a i’ve seen Tyra is VERY judgemental of everyone else’s choices. I have yet to see one scene where she doesn’t say something about disagreeing with her sister’s life choices or her friends. It feels like every time anything comes up, she just has to drag them and let everyone know how she feels about it. She does seem like a very strong minded person and I’m not saying she’s a villain or anything along those lines; it’s just weird to me how every clip I’ve seen of her, she said something about her sister’s parenting or her friends or whatever. She just seems very judgemental and always has an opinion on other people’s lives and it gives me a bad vibe. She acts like she’s the only good parent and everyone else is doing it wrong 😂
My mom had my oldest sister at 13 and we struggled as children. She wasn't the worst mom and we never got taken into the system but we did deserve better. She's a much better mom now at 40 and she must have done something right because us kids broke that generational curse. All 5 of us are over 20 and no pregnancies 😌
Alex was the coolest, most agreeable, young dad, out of all of them. He was kind of quiet, which may have been an indicator that he was sneaky. But, being so young, real commitment is far-fetched, risky, and usually unfounded.
Props for dee and tiara for doing there business that young. Don't see much of that now a days but still they doing it for the kids. Respect. Not saying getting pregnant that young is good but you can make it
I feel so bad for dee😭 he's trapped in this horrible family for the rest of his life and he can't even escape it they can't even season their chicken 💀 and now he has to deal with the stress and trauma of five generations of teen pregnancy 😭 like bro doesn't even seem happy to be around her he's just forcing himself for this child and that's not going to end well it's going to end and him being physically and mentally burned out because now he's trapped himself with this person that he doesn't even love just because you have a child doesn't mean you guys have to be together but he's forcing himself to be with this train wreck of a family if I was him I would just co-parent because they clearly do not make him happy 😭
I know this is just a small clip but like get tf up and get your kid when she’s grabbing at that baby and the glasses. Like how tf is she just going to sit there.
