Mom at Sixteen

When I sat down to watch this it was purely because I had nothing else to do; this subject area's been done to death. Unlike anything else I've seen, this film showed the young mother's perspective and I could actually feel Jacey's pain as she didn't know whether she'd rather have her baby or keep her secret. I also think it showed the incredible sacrifices mothers will make; most other films and programmes about this subject show cold mothers who either kick their daughters out or resent them if they stay, which is not always the case. I would recommend this film to anyone and I hope to see Danielle Panabaker in something else soon as her acting is second-to-none.

This was a good movie with a great story! I liked Danielle Panabaker's character in this one. She plays a mom who is still in High School and has her divorced mom takes care of her son while she's in school. In the middle of the two of them is Jacy's sister Macy who is felling the abuse of the mother/daughter relationship. The father of the baby is nowhere to be found. That is, until the middle of the movie where we see Jacy going to see him and tell him that he has a kid! He doesn't believe her and rejects her! Jane Krakowski plays a teacher that talks about teen sex and having babies. The catch is, she can't have any kids. So she goes to a Dr. that tells her she has to adopt! It's definitely a good one to watch!!

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.

This movie was awesome, and not just "awesome for a Lifetime movie", I would buy this DVD. They did a wonderful job and I was really pleased to see Danielle again since I remembered her from Sex and the Single Mom and a Disney channel movie.

I've been waiting for a new young mom movie since "Fifteen and Pregnant" with Kirsten Dunst was getting pretty old. Mom at Sixteen took a completely different path though. I don't know if they were aiming to make the viewer care more about Jacey than the baby, but I sure did! In most movies involving babies (since I have one myself) I find myself wondering what will happen to the baby, etc. Not this movie though, I was too focused on Danielle's character and what she was going to decide.

I honestly didn't care very much for Jane's character though, or Mercedes'! Maybe it's just me, but I didn't find anything extremely likable about them.

Bottom line, this is a great movie! All the good Lifetime movies seem to JUST be ending when I find out they're on, so now I use my TV search and program my TV so I don't miss it, I suggest you do the same!

i love how this movie shows what can happen if you are a teen mother, and if people find out. i think it was heartwarming and some points honestly brought tears to my eyes. Danielle Panabaker gives a great performance in this movie. this movie, to me, is an excellent thing for teens and their parents to watch. even people who aren't teenagers yet may like this movie. this can really show you that having sex as a teen, or even preteen, has it's consequences. all in all, i really like this movie a lot.lifetime is doing a great job by using such hot, young actors/actresses in their movies. i most definitely give this movie two thumbs up and five gold stars.
