Secret Life’s Babies

At the rate the teenagers talk about sex in The Secret Life of the American Teenager, you would think there’d be a lot of unwed mothers at Ulysses S. Grant High School in the fictional town of Valley Glen. But Amy Juergens didn’t go to band camp with plans to seduce Ricky Underwood. He irresponsibly seduced the unprepared 15-year-old and continued to indulge in his sex addiction with his main girlfriend, Adrian, and every other girl he could get his hands on in school even after their son, John was born.

Divorced parents, George and Anne Juergens already had their hands full with their two teenage daughters, Amy and Ashley. Amy wanted to keep her baby. Ashley was resentful that Amy’s pregnancy turned their household on its ear. George and Anne decided to give their marriage another try and this resulted in Anne becoming pregnant. So Anne gave birth to Robie, an uncle who is younger than his own nephew, John.
