Based on a true story, Gaby Rodriguez (Alexa Vega) is the brave 18-year-old high school student who forces her school and community to confront its preconceptions about teen pregnancy. When Gaby chooses stereotyping for her senior project, she decides to experience it firsthand. Confiding in her mother (Judy Reyes), her boyfriend (Walter Perez) and a handful of others, Gaby begins her social experiment in which she tells her friends, family and teachers that she is pregnant. While her fake baby bump continues to grow, she carefully records how she is treated and what is being said about her–for better and for worse–both in and out of school. With her project’s findings conclusive, Gaby emotionally addresses her fellow students and their teachers about stereotyping and teen pregnancy during a special school assembly and then shocks them by ripping off her “baby bump,” revealing she was never pregnant at all and teaching them a valuable lesson. (2012)

  3. It’s sad because it’s real life and having a baby as a teen mom doesn’t ruin your life I was a teen mom and my life is good but no matter what we Al go through struggles in life 🫶🫶

  22. This is a template which could be used and expanded to cover all of us who were married, waited and had our children, only to have been left with the responsibility of raising them..alone. We are scattered throughout this economic [not a ] ression. Almost all of us single women parents now are faced with aging on wages that have ranged from 40% less than our male counterparts. That number had been shrinking to a more manageable 20-25% difference, and along comes AI that is blind, deaf and dumb as well as stupid. It does not recognize a woman crossing the street unless she was in a cross-walk. Nor a woman business owner, one who have been in a severe car collision, with amnesia, earned a masters with honors, made significant changes in policy bias, but again face homelessness without support the my family siblings and my two adult children do not know how to help me. And I am not alone, in this situation. What happens when it is not racial discriminations which is easier to understand and prove? What happens if we have done so well in our recovery, that people fail to support our ongoing invisible disabilities. I was forced into a cement divider-wall on the way to work one day after dropping my daughter off at daycare and my son at kindergarten. Fortunately, I suffered a traumatic brain injury, which caused me to not remember the actual event, but the pain that followed was inconceivable. I have only hurt that much again, nearly 40 years later, when I received my second Covid-19 vaccine. It nearly killed me. Yet I still take no opioids, pain medication, and have gotten to the point I was walking a mile daily, and then…A young man ran a stop sign, when the van I was riding in the back seat, was hit, crashing my body and this time I felt it. Still no pain medication [I credit this to the discovery of acupuncture and nutrition biomedicine], a healthy knowledge of science, food as medicine, meditation, and a very strong connection with my Co-creator, My Source. Have a masters, written health care policy globally, nationally, and even locally, was able to practice medicine, work with other prominent health care professionals to abate the impact of the pandemic, other human maladies, and now am again, homeless. I just do not see the current values to be in my favor…yet. Stereotypes be damned. Compassion, not empathy.

  39. Very good movie with no zooming. It's good to see a movie about such a important subject instead of shows like teen mom that glorifies this and makes girls famous and wealthy for this. It sends the wrong message.

  40. This was really a good movie, but I felt that the young lady who was really pregnant was lift in the air, I felt a bit let down, as there's nothing to say was she kicked out of her home, did she get any form of support and what happens to those who don't have any one to turn to or befriend.? I felt that the movie was incomplete.
