Bristol Palin: Babies are Awesome

bristol_palin000×0400x300jpeg.jpgBristol Palin sat down to for her first interview since having her son in December and, true to Palin form, it was a little hard to sit through. I realize that it’s hard being a teenager. It’s hard to balance school, work, friends, family, and, um, baby daddies, but really, Bristol didn’t do a great job of convincing us she is mature enough to be a mother. She seemed very, very young, peppering the conversation with lots of “likes” (I counted 25).

I was really interested to hear what she had to say about teenage pregnancy and sex education and interviewer, Van Susteren, delivered. Bristol was forced to answer questions such as how has her life changed, how she feels about being a mother and what was it like to tell her parents she was pregnant (to which Bristol replied, “It was, like, harder than labor”).

Bristol Palin seemed really intent on people learning from her story, which I found really admirable. Unfortunately she hasn’t really come up with a game plan on how to make that happen. Throughout the interview she seemed to be telling us to “wait, like, ten years,”  but I’m not really sure what we’re waiting for. Waiting to have sex? Waiting for sex education? Waiting for marriage? The whole thing seemed a little murky.

Especially when Susternen hit her with the big question: to abstain or not to abstain? Read More »

Bristol Palin’s Baby Grandma Arrested

1219palin.jpgRemember Bristol Palin, the most popular unwed mama-to-be since Jamie Lynn Spears? We haven’t heard much about her (or her gun-toting mother) since Barack Obama won the election. Well, she’s almost due! Little Baby Palin will be gracing Wasilla with her presence this weekend!

Unfortunately, she is going to be without gifts from Grandma Johnston. Looks like Levi’s mama got herself into a little bit of trouble…

“The 42-year-old Johnston has been charged with six felony drug counts.”Whoops!

Not that we can blame her; what else is there to do in Alaska (besides sleep with the Governor’s daughter and go sledding)? She must have been totally down and out after she lost her chance to hang out at the White House. She should have stuck with Sarah and opted for hunting moose to lift her spirits instead.
