FIVE FACTS FROM THE SOURCE (Embedded): EX: The article cites Maria Nikolajeva, a professor of at Cambridge, as saying that Bella does not "in any way promote independent thinking or personal development" in women, instead portraying a woman "meek and willing to do anything for her vampire boyfriend" (POV). |
This article believes that the tv shows"the difficulties of being a struggling teen mom" |
Psychotherapist said "the shows show teens that pregnant life is not glamorous." |
This does have a lot of affect "if a girl has a stable home life a solid foundation and relationship with her parents then this type of reality TV does not affect them in a negative way." |
Parents have "talked about how hard it is to take care of children." |
If teens need fame that means they are not getting the "love and attention she's not getting at home" |

Their is a slight bias because Fetzer does talk about only how parents like that their is a show about teenage pregnancy.
