Absolutely brilliant

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Finally, a realistic TV movie that does not irresponsibly trivialize the serious issue of teen parenting. Jacey is 16 and the mother of a 5-month-old little boy, Charlie. Her bitterly divorced mother is raising Charley as if he was her own, in an attempt to give Jacey her "life back". But Jacey can't stand living a lie. The living situation causes constant tension in the household, and Jacey's younger sister Macey is suffering from being in the middle of all of it. In the meantime, they are all adjusting to living in a new community, and the girls are adjusting to attending a new high school, one where teenagers have sexual relations on school grounds during classes. The promiscuity and casual sex is so overexposed in the school, Jacey finds it hard to concentrate. But the main idea, to this story, in my opinion, is that mothers will do anything for their kids. The relationship between Jacey and her mother is rocky, but remains the centerpiece.Acting is first-rate, especially by Mercedes Rheul as the mom, and Danielle Panabaker, as Jacey. Also very emotional and positive.Never before as a TV movie ever actually brought tears to my eyes. This is an enjoyable movie with a deep message.

I've seen this movie on lifetime and i think it was great. we actually got to see how hard it is to have and raise a child and what it takes to give it up for adaption. I loved the end where Jasey gave her son to the teacher to raise and then they showed the child saying that the teacher is his mother but that he came out "of my Jasey's stomach". The part where Jasey brought her son to school along with her friends who have or will have kids. It showed that even though those girls have kids they are still just like us. It was very inspirational, especially for those mothers, when the whole room stood up to applaud the girls for their courage.

Absolutely amazing.. What else can i say? I'm a 22 Year old male, and i do have a daughter of my own, this movie was great, from the start i was glued to the screen and i was still there at the end, and i didn't even move to grab a drink, or go the loo.I found this movie very emotional, and near the end i was almost in tears, and had a lump in my throat.. i'm not ashamed to admit that.What Jacey did was amazing and was a very tough decision for her, and i feel i can relate to how she felt, as i have been in this situation myself. I will certainly buy the DVD for this once its out. 10/10. Well done.

This movie turned out to be one of my top favorite Lifetime movies. The emotion that was carried out in the movie was well done. I liked how they show what happens next once they have given birth because it's not like other movies that shows what's happening from when she finds out she is pregnant till she has the baby and then it just ends leaving the audience in mystery. I must say this film has made me cry so much , i haven't cried like that since "A walk to remember". This movie is definitely worth watching and it shows how teens are acting these days and gives a lesson in life. Danielle who had played Jaycee was an excellent actress and i don't think anyone else could have played such a part, i felt the emotions going through her as if i was with her through out her journey. This is a movie that almost anyone can relate to if you knew someone or were a young mother that had a dilemma.
