16 and Pregnant - Page 8

I couldn't believe how quickly/suddenly things fell apart between Leah & Corey. They seemed to be really close during the pregnancy, talked about everything, very supportive of each other, etc. Then it just all went downhill immediately after the babies came home from the hospital. I agree with the PP who said I think they have a real chance to work it out & be a family.

Can I also just ask what the HECK she saw in that Robbie guy? Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew. Corey was about 5 million times more attractive & sweet than him, or so it seemed from the show. I guess love really is blind...

I think the big thing is that he represented everything she had to give up when she got pregnant. She connected him with fun, freedom, being care-free... They also were together for so long, there were clearly still feelings there that she hadn't dealt with. I don't really know what she initially saw in him, but I understood why she was drawn to him after the birth of the girls.

It's also why she didn't really see the light with him until he was around the girls. When she saw his attitude toward them, I think things started to click for her. But by then she had screwed things up with Corey so badly and didn't have the maturity to know how to handle the situation and make things right. So sad.

Yeah, I can see that. I think you're exactly right.

My thoughts on Leah & Corey..I think Corey was a man. Leah was a little girl. He wanted to be there for their family..he really stepped up with a girlfriend of a MONTH. They hardly knew each other..and yet he was willing to make a life together. I felt so terrible for him when he was crying. And when she just kept going out. I think he had every right to ask her to stay home with her children, rather than go hang out with her ex boyfriend. Poor guy.

I did feel terrible for her too though when she realized what she had done. I just hope they will find a way to get back together. She is really going to be hurting if she lives with that regret forever with no resolution.

When I was watching this episode I felt like I could see it coming..that there was no way Robbie was going to want to be a daddy. It just was painful to watch! I hope Leah and Corey can work it out.

This is pretty much exactly what I was going to say. I felt so awful for Corey, especially when he made the comment about not being able to wake up with his girls every morning. I really hope they can work things out, or at the very least, work it out so that Corey can spend plenty of time with the girls.

How ironic and sad that we finally see a teen dad who seems like a very stand-up guy and the teen mom is a total flake!! I think her major problem is basic immaturity, I mean, she was surprised when her old boyfriend wasn't into being a dad to her twins??? Her perspective on things was so warped, including her relationship with Corey and Robbie, it was clear how much of a kid she really is. Corey definitely seemed to be doing his best in a very bad situation, I think the fact that he sold his truck was a clear indication of his committment. Watching him cry was so sad, made all the worse given the fact that Leah actually got a clue when it was too late. Little kids dealing with grown-up issues, most of them just can't hack it.

And yes, I feel very voyeuristic watching this show, DH hates it. But I can't help it!!

This is how I felt about it too.

I could go on and on but I'll save that till after the show I'm terrified they're going to make my brother look like an idiot.. I KNOW he's made mistakes but I'm just scared the way they are going to present it.
I need hugs.. I'm going to be a nervous wreck the day/night of the show!!!

Anyway I should be on the show a little bit (Yay for MDC mama's LOL) I'm Amanda the fat mama LOL and my kids might be on too.
Oh wow, that's SO cool .. you will be on it! Sorry about your brothers situation though. I hope it will work out for him and the girl and the baby. It will be cool to see you on it.

I hope they will have a season two of teen mom, because I really want to see what happends with Corey and Leah!

Yeesh, I'd be nervous, too! I'm excited to see it. I'll have to go to MTV and check the preview. Ooohh, can't wait to hear any insider info you'd be willing to share. So do the families not get to see the edited version before it airs? OMG that would make me crazy, not knowing what was about to be presented!

I was thinking there might have been some postpartum depression clouding the girl's thinking. There was such a disconnect between when she was leaving the hospital without the girls, and then when she got them home it was like she couldn't wait to dump them on someone and go out. I thought there was just a weird personality shift, but of course we just saw edited bits and pieces, not everything. I actually liked this mom and Corey too of course, but there was just something I didn't get about the situation... It seemed weird.

I'm a fan of this show but I don't know why yet. I didn't catch much of the first season, just Catelyn. I watched all of Teen Mom.

I'm really a fan of these girls. What they go through from their parent and the baby's dad, it is a lot for anyone to handle. And to let MTV film it, wow!

The twin-mom show was so hard. You could tell she just wanted to escape. Did she not watch the other shows? Her babies' dad seemed great compared to most. He was a great dad. She just needed to give it time to see if it would work out with them. I really hope he gives her another chance. The grandma was so sweet too.

Tyler's mom seriously made me mad. You have been there yourself and that is how you treat your kid?? What did you expect him to do when you basically stopped mothering him?

I agree with most of the PP who said that she was really immature, I didn't like this episode at all. It seemed like her girls were not her main priority!

Yay for a good couple who are loving their daughter and working hard for her! Woo hoo!

It's nice to watch an episode and not end feeling depressed for them or their child.
