I watched the marathon of this last week and really liked it.

Ann, like most of us can be clueless, unless we have an open relationship with our kids. I went through something simular....my DD likes to tell me things, she thinks I'd like to hear, including that she hasn't had sex and I know different.

I thought I had an open relationship with her, but she didn't want to hurt or loose my trust.

As for Amy going to a different school, I don't think so, a pregnant girl has the same rights as every other child going to school. After the first came up pregnant, alot more kids were checking into birth control and my favorite abstinance. The lack of education, when it comes to sex, whether in the home or at school is lacking in my part of the world.

I wanted my DD to wait, but in the end hormones got the better of the situation. Where do you go from here.....education. The best part of the show comes at the end, when Amy does the part about talking to parents, and teens listening to the parents and working and TALKING things out.

The dad is a jerk though... I agree with on that one.
