Thanks to Juno’s success and the real-life pregnancy of Zoey 101 star Jamie Lynn Spears, teenage pregnancy is the hottest thing since rehab. To exploit this trend, Hollywood gives us Baby Borrowers, a reality tv show featuring teen couples attempting to parent babies, work full-time minimum wage jobs, and pay bills.
Besides the scary fact that parents actually donated their young children for the honor of being on a reality tv show (aka no big cash prizes to be found here), this social experiment is hardly experimental. Teens find out that… get ready for this… parenting is hard! The only one of the “borrowers” who seems in on the joke is Sean who purposely agreed to be on the show to prove to girlfriend, Kelsey, that they aren’t ready to be parents. He happily gloats to the camera that “this is pretty good for my plan” when the real mother of the borrowed baby (who’s been watching the events unfold on a flat screen tv in a nearby house) stops by to scold Kelsey and him for their inability to change the baby’s clothes or give her a bath. Even if the tvs used for surveillance on the show had been given the Energy Star rating, they don’t have the opportunity to save energy when they’re turned off because the real parents (smartly) never stop watching the borrowers. Whereas viewers don’t have any excuses.
