MTV’s 16 and Pregnant is an hour-long documentary series focusing on the controversial subject of teen pregnancy. Each episode follows a 5-7 month period in the life of a teenager as she navigates the bumpy terrain of adolescence, growing pains, rebellion, and coming of age; all while dealing with being pregnant.

Every episode offers a unique look into the wide variety of challenges pregnant teens face: marriage, adoption, religion, gossip, finances, rumors among the community, graduating high school, getting (or losing) a job. Faced with incredibly adult decisions, these girls are forced to sacrifice their teenage years and their high school experiences. But there is an optimism among them; they have the dedication to make their lives work, and to do as they see fit to provide the best for their babies.

Each Challenge season pits numerous cast members from past seasons of The Real World. Each of the opposing teams compete in numerous missions in order to win prizes and advance in the overall game. Following each mission, two cast members are voted into an elimination round, in which they must compete against one another to determine which one is eliminated from the overall game and must leave the show.

The stakes have never been this high, emotions have never been this raw, and the competition has never been this fierce, as they put their hearts on the line and battle for the winnings.
