The Juno Effect




Some parents and critics wonder if films like Juno, among other media that portrays young pregnant teens, may be doing more harm than good.


What do you think? Did the movie Juno make teen pregnancy seem cool?

I think the movie shows the responsibility and a part of the proces of being pregnant. Plus Juno ends up giving the baby away, so that kinda tells how hard it is being pregnant as a teen.

I don't think, that it seemed cool. It showed how hard it can be having a baby, and she in the end chose to find someone to adopt the baby.

Its kinda show what its like to be pregnant bot it don't show the bad site of being pregnant, so yea maybe, but still it also show how hard it can be after, how u maybe have to give your baby away with adoption.

Yeah it kind of did. But not really if you think about because Juno chose to adopt the baby to another family. So you could say that the movie crew who made the film didn't really try to populate the problem. So my answer is no I don't think so.

The movie made it seem so easy to get a kid, i wouldn't say cool. She just didn't face the big problems that teen mothers talk about, and that we have seen in the shows we have watched.

I didn't make it seem cool, but it definitely made it seem easy. You didn't really see the hard parts of the pregnancy, besides the birth. The hole period was pretty chill, so teenagers might think that it's just easy to have a baby and that there aren't any consequences.

I dont Think it necessarily makes it cool, but the movie doesn't show how hard it is to raise a child. In the movie she finds love and it ends happily, and that's not always the case.

Maybe a little bit, because she makes it look kind of easy, but you can also see in the movie that it is not fun at all times.

No since it had nothing to do with being a teen mom. And being a mom is why people would do it.

It didn't make pregnancy seem cool. But it showed a positive side of pregnancy, which probably can relate, that a pregnancy is something interesting and happy thing. It didn't show that many struggles and arguments.
It showed that it can be a difficult choice, to keep the baby, or give away the baby with an abortion.

No t didn't seem like it was cool. And if the film tried to make it seem cool, they did a bad job, because the comedy in the film kind of throughs off the seriousness of the problem.

I think that maybe Juno didn't show enough responsibility and she wasn't very serious. But it will also destroy some of the funny stuff in the movie if she should be like that. So if it really should "warn" or inform about teen pregnancy, then it shouldn't have any comic stuff in it only information.

I think that Juno missed how it is to be a teen mom. They didn't show us what it is like to be a teen mom but only what she went through when she was pregnant. But they choose to show the happy side of the pregnancy with no arguing or problems, which in many cases aren't true. So i don't think they made it seem cool but just less harder than it actual is.

Ted talks on the topic social media

Take a look at these two Ted Talks. Comment on them with your thoughts about social media. Do you think that the internet has made your life better? Do you think that it has made your social connections stronger or has it made you feel more alone? Do you agree with this quote: “I’ll tell you what’s wrong with having a conversation.

Should you put Your Phone Down?

Do you agree or disagree with the points 1-4: 1.     It’s rude not to put down your phone when in conversations with others Imagine you’re talking with someone and  in the middle of it they start to talk to someone else. That’s kind of a “are you kidding me?” moment. 2.     Put down your phone - It raises the quality of your conversations Just by being there our phone has the potential to distract us from our in-person conversations.” 3.       Your Phone is a distraction  A single phone notification can spoil your ability to focus on a specific task or conversation. 4.     It helps you be more empathetic* Sherry Turkle, (from the TED Talk), writes that texting or not paying attention create disengaged* conversations that lead to a lack of empathy. “ Face-to-face conversation is the most human and humanizing thing we do,” writes Turkle. “It’s where we develop the capac...
