Baby Borrowers Ahhh....young
love.
When
the world is your oyster and the bond between two lovebirds is invincible.
Do you know anyone like this? Are they ready to face the big bad world? Do they
say they can handle anything that comes their way? When
parenthood knocks at their door will they be able to handle it? What about finances
and jobs and the upkeep of a home? Maybe there are some teenagers you know that
think they can do it better and parents don't know anything?
NBC challenges five teenage couples to try their hands at handling the
real world. Start with an infant, then a toddler, pre-teen, young teenager, and
finally a senior citizen, not to mention real houses and real responsibilities.
When
they start they are eager to be out on their own and confident. Will they finish
this experiment with the same mind set? Will
they see that it only takes a short time before nerves get frayed and relationships
become strained?
Granted,
in real life you have all the years in between infancy and adolesance to love
your child before contemplating committing hari kari. Maybe they will realize
that there is plenty of time for being an adult and slow down a bit. The
show was slated to premiere at the end of American Gladiator - on Mondays in the
spring of '08, but it's now "Coming Soon..." Watch
for news on this social experiment. You'll get the chance to see the fireworks
as these teens crash headlong into parenthood. Should be fun to watch... Don't
