Former high school cheerleader gets pregnant...

Why: We chose this topic because it’s a big problem for teenagers around the world. The script is written after the experience teenage girls get when they suddenly have to face that they have a life is developing inside them.

We also wanted to show that a girl who was just so self-centered, who slowly turns into a better person by realizing her surroundings…

How would this teenager’s experience/ Outlook/ Desire be different from their parents’?


Experience:

· When her parents where young this would be shunned by the society and maybe even her parents.


· Medical care would be worse


· Mentally disturbed/depression (because the society is ignoring)


· Not support group


Outlook:

· Shameful of their daughter, these kinds of things are not acceptable


· No future, no help (in the past time)


· Nowadays opportunity is greater for the girls (she still can participate in social activities)


Desires:

· She would have more freedom to choose whether to keep the baby or not.


· In the past days, her parents would not have the right to keep the baby, furthermore they would be forced to get an abortion.


· In the past, they will desire for support and understanding (now it is more about continuing your normal life)
