Gabby Rodriguez, who is 17 years old, wrote this book to tell about how she did the “pregnancy project”. She had always grew up near poverty and grew up with siblings who were teen moms. Everyone looked at her and believed she would become a teen mom also and nothing more. Her pregnancy project was to fake a pregnancy, which was also her senior project.

I am reminded of two sisters who found themselves in a similar situations to Jig and Sheri, with an unwanted pregnancy. The eldest of the two, in a relationship with man with the attributes of the American and the youngest with a man with the attribute of Lane Jr. The youngest decided not to have the baby because of her desire to follow her career path, as I believe Sheri did in "Good People".

Kim Kardashian, is known more for her publicity stunts and antics than anything else; her name is synonymous with blonde bimbo, only she is not blonde. She very cleverly uses her assets to garner attention, and in the process, make her richer. A few years ago, an experiment was conducted where people were asked to describe Kardashian in one word, and might I say that the majority of responses which were received were adjectives such as ‘talentless,’ ‘fake,’ ‘self-absorbed’ and ‘spoilt.’ Some of you are probably thinking that Kim is a mature, shrewd and prudent young woman, who is willing to work long and tirelessly in order to achieve her goal.
