Anyone that blames this on movies or celebrities is clearly stupid. Its the parents, plain and simple.

Now, I still have a bit of faith in our youth and society as a whole, so I still have a tough time believing these girls had a thought process which dictated that getting pregnant is the new cool, "in" thing to do. But, if that actually was the case, has the intelligence of the youths of this country dropped that significantly since my time in high school?
I mean, hell, high school is a time where seemingly everybody tries at least one stupid thing to try to fit it with the "in" crowd, but I honestly, and I graduated from high school just three years ago, can't recall anybody at my school doing anything this stupid.
This is just mind-boggling stuff.

Do you really want to hear the answer to this question?

Its not right.

If you take away any potential fiscal responsibility for sleeping with someone, you destroy a mental barrier that keeps a lot of people from having sex.

A fiscal responsibility is the LAST thing going through anyones mind when hormones are charged.

Parents will look to put the blame anywhere but themselves.

This has nothing to do with the subject. They WANTED to get pregnant.

No form of birth control (aside from abstinence) is 100% effective. A person should always be aware of the fact that any act of intercourse could result in a pregnancy. That's just one of the realities of life - even if you are taking proper precautions, there is still a pregnancy risk involved.
(Doesn't change the fact that what these girls did was reprehensible, of course.)
