Part 2: • High School Mums | S1 E2
I attended this school while this was being filmed and this school helped so many of us young mums we had and still have a nurse a councillor we also have a room called the koha room where people can give away their old baby belongings to the mums in need we had transport to and from school everyday with our babies tagging along heaps of courses and learning activities and you get treated soo amazingly and you are taught so much on how to be a mum and also a great career alongside 😊
This is amazing and so beautiful to see. You are going to achieve great things! ❤
@kerry what’s the name
Of the school I live near Hamilton would love to be able to drop some baby stuff off to some mamas
She can use the Child farm body wash& shampoo and the cream Epaderm and should tap on the skin Instead of rubbing it my son had it like this cute baby ❤ ( if you can pass the message it will help the baby skin )
Every country needs this type of school ❤
Idk any of them but I'm so unbelievably proud of all of those girls! They're all incredibly strong & such amazing momma's!! I'm rooting for them all to make it.
What a great support for teenage mothers. Having a baby young shouldn’t mean you have to give up on your dreams❤
My daughter got pregnant and had my granddaughter at 14 and she is going to be graduating at the end of her 11th grade year and is heading to nursing school for college next year. These girls will all make it. I wish they offered something like this for girls in America.
I love Drew’s Nan and her outlook and unconditional love for her granddaughter and great grandmother. We need places like this for those who go do get pregnant young, especially places where choices are limited. Everyone deserves an education, otherwise we setting them up for to fail or be very limited in what they can do. I appreciate places like this. I knew of a similar one from an older doc but I think it was in the states. Just like the school in the states trying to help teens with substance issues with education and a touching series on mtv it was called recovery high.
This was so touching to watch. These girls are so strong and it is inspiring to see them achieve so much against all odds.
This is so lovely! Motherhood is challenging and it’s so nice that they have this space to help them xx
It's so cool that there is a school like this around so young parents can continue their education and have support.
As a first time mum just recently at the age of 38, i was way too much of a sh*thead teen back then to be a functioning good quality mother 😂 so props to all those teen parents out there looking after their kids!
Ngaa mihi ki a koutou. I just think what the kura is doing for these mums and babies is awesome. Education is indeed the key for their future. These babies and their mums are incredible ppl doing the best they can because heaven knows its not easy raising babies on your own. I wish you all the best with your Education,and your future. Definitely raising children makes you grow up faster.
Such a beautiful program for these young mums and their babies. It's great to see that they have the support to achieve their dreams and goals ❣️
I wish something like this was around in the 90s so many of us thought our lives stopped. We were treated so badly. All I had was my mum. Now 47 my babies are shining. ❤ Keep going ladies life is for you all to grab and enjoy ❤❤❤
Keep going Danielle! Cierrah too is a wonderful mum. To all the mums and teachers in this program - what an inspiration!
This program for the student mothers is wonderful. I suggest there should be mandatory classes each high school year for all male students: anatomy, birth control incl. condoms, parenting classes, the role of fathers, budgeting for a family, etc.
And here in the US, I was kicked out of school when they found out I was pregnant. They did it to others as well
I’m sorry this happened to you. I graduated in 1995 and the childcare center at my school was right next to my 1st period English class. And everyone loved having the kids on campus.
You could have went to a different school. I know for a fact they have schools for pregnant teens because I went to one.
Excuses.
Support is so needed. ❤
Lee your amazing beautiful lady supporting these ataahua young mums n babies this is such a awesome program for them to achieve there goals on there lifes journey wishing yous all the best ❤
Teenboys, you need to understand if you lay with a woman and get her pregnant.
It's your responsibility, just like hers
Agreed these little boys always get the easy way out and don’t get held accountable.
I dont agree with teenage pregnancy but at least they have a school so they could continue education.
I don’t agree with all the blame being put on the girl.
If you are man enough to get a girl pregnant, be a man and take care of what you created.
If not:
Use protection or get snipped.
I live in the United States, and remember back in 2022, when Roe v Wade was overturned, appts. At clinics to get snipped ‘skyrocketed.’
you don't really have a choice if you get pregnant tho like its not really there fault
We have 2 of these schools in my country and there very successful. I didn't believe in teen babies either until it happened with my daughter she was 19..she had an apprenticeship hairdressing job good things going for her, that was 8yrs ago now she has her own business with ndis we wouldn't change anything ..❤
@freyabailey3902if you are choosing to partake in activities that could get you pregnant, you are choosing to gamble that chance.
So true especially if home life isn’t stable
I don’t know any of them but I’m proud of them. They’re doing amazing
This is so inspirational. It is amazing to see the teenage mothers are supported to achieve their dreams ❤
Beautiful mahi supporting these young mamas, I teared up a couple times watching coz this is real life for some of us and we’ve been honoured to witness a portion of these mamas journey 🤍 Kia Kaha mamas 🙌🤍
I love that the counselor or whoever she is was like when you have your baby send me picture I NEED pictures
Thank God for places like this ❤ My grandson was born from young parents and it definitely takes a village and I love being a part of that village
Utah has 1 like this teen moms. We also have a recovery school for kids coming off drugs
All young parents should have such grear support.
That said.....please consider our collective fate...and the number of unwanted and neglected children out there every moment of every hour of every day.
“we don’t have a choice” my dear, this is the consequence of a choice. Tough love.
Where are the fathers?
Fatherhood isn’t praised amongst men. Once they get the girl pregnant their job is done.
they’re definitely somewhere
That is wonderful they have this for the young mothers, I just hope they continue their learning & not just be statistics.
Interesting to see this outside the US, obviously if they had more schools that catered to teen moms their outcome in life would be better, however also in America there are many outlets for income if one doesn’t seek education i.e. social media, working, and unfortunately many girls do OF or other things like it!
Dru too - what a legend you are!
Love this, what amazing young women ❤ and Lee you are star ⭐️
Great programme...
Birth control is vital for youth until they are old enough and stable enough to start families
Do dads do the program too?
I think the proven father should be made to go to these schools too.
That whole thing would be their parents' problem.
is the principal from heartbreak high narrating this???
Yes
Are the fathers the same age as the teenager girls?
The amount of ads on this channel is ridiculous
Sex is something that only adults should be partaking in. Teens who don’t have a stable foundation to raise a child shouldn’t be doing it.
Tell that their hormones. Surely you remember your teen years? Teenage hormones run rampant and can lead to what could be considered reckless behaviour, particularly if the teens have grown up in an insupportive environment.Their brains aren't even fully developed. We need to educate and have empathy, not judge.
@ I agree, that’s why I lost my virginity at 18 with my current partner. I was taught by my parents not to partake in that activity too young and I listened. Some kids don’t listen.
@@ladybug3380some kids come from extremely broken homes, and are dealing with the trauma that has been inflicted on them. Like that vulnerable girl whose mum was a drug addict and then was preyed upon by a grown ass man.
Most of these girls do not come from homes instilling good values.
It’s easy to judge from a privileged position.
Teen mums are often desperate for someone to love them. Do you know what it feels like to be desperate for love as a child? It’s heartbreaking and you will accept any type of attention as love.
Have some compassion. These girls aren’t stupid or bad, they’re just kids without proper guidance or role models. They’re coping with the dysfunction of their upbringing, they’re doing what almost all of their peers are doing but got pregnant and chose to keep their child and work hard for a better life.
This in normal??
It's not about normal. It's about supporting young women who are in a position of not being able to help themselves without kind intervention. Very few ladies choose to be teen parents.
Mama's baby Daddy's maybe
Education education education!
These kids just need to use their common sense and use protection
You realise this happens to adults too?
Wow
I dont think it was a good idea to open the school for Teenage Moms
Where are the Children s fathers I dont see them there
Absent dads
Ps others schools also going to do it
Not a good idea
Shame on this show. They say they educate the moms yet they don’t cover car seat saftey and shame on the film crew to let her leave w the baby not even buckled fully
Lord have mercy. Look up car seat laws in other countries. They don’t have chest straps. 🤦🏼♀️
Different laws and seat types in different countries.
The kids are properly strapped in. The U.S. and Canada are the only places that have cheat straps. They are illegal in many countries.
They are pretty shameful having kids not married
Touch some grass
