Baby Borrowers

The following is a brief about a new reality TV show on NBC called, The Baby Borrowers, which airs on Wednesdays at 8 p.m.

I think it's definitely a show that all teens need to watch. It is a great example of reality, and if teens are having sex they must definitely know the consequences that they could suddenly face. Maybe this show will make teens start thinking twice before rushing into sex! Remember, the consequences ALWAYS outweigh the momentary pleasure!

Can teens be good parents? That's the big question raised by NBC's The Baby Borrowers as five teenage couples take part in a reality TV social experiment that lets them experience life in fast forward. They are given nice homes and a brief parenting class, and then real life babies to care for thanks to volunteer parents (some of whom were teen parents themselves).
The teen couples quickly learn what it means to be responsible for a child as well as go to a job every day and sustain relationships with their partners. After a few days with the babies, the teen couples get toddlers to care for, then “tweens” with family pets, then teenagers, and finally senior citizens.

Over the next six weeks, you'll get to watch as each couple deals with the drama, surprise, challenges, and rewards of parenting in ways that are riveting and intense. As NBC says, “It’s not TV, it’s birth control!”
