Ever wondered what people really say about you behind your back? If you've ever seen someone else get picked on or trash-talked right to their face, how did it make you feel? How would it affect your outlook if everyone expected you to fail?

No, this is not about to get into a whole thing about teen bullying. It's about Gaby Rodriguez, an 18-year-old Latina high schooler in Toppenish, Washington, who decided that the best way to make her school community face the prejudices they held against teen moms was to become one herself--or at least pretend to be--and then document everything people said about her. When she revealed her secret at a school assembly, she sparked a national conversation about stereotyping, teen parenthood, and the need for prevention.

Gaby wrote a book about her experiment and, tomorrow night (a.k.a. Saturday, January 28th) at 8/7c, Lifetime premieres "The Pregnancy Project," an original movie based on the book. (Get a sneak peek and more information about the movie on Lifetime's website). As the daughter of a teen mother, Gaby saw first-hand how teen parenthood can alter an entire family.

As an honor student with a bright future, Gaby's plan was to defy the odds: 52% of Latinas get pregnant as teens, and 3 in 10 girls overall get pregnant as teens. She was determined to finish high school and start a family after getting married and starting a career. But as she saw classmates turn into expectant mothers, she realized how quickly plans can get derailed and how important it was for her peers to understand that teen pregnancy can--and does--happen to just about anyone, not just "those girls."

With help from her mom, her boyfriend, the school principal and a close friend, Gaby spent six months lying about being pregnant and finding out what people really thought about her and about teen parents in general. By detailing the disappointment, knowing eye-rolls, and outright nasty comments from other students and even from teachers, Gaby showed her peers that even "good girls" can get pregnant and that teen moms deserve better than pity and derision.

Watch the "Pregnancy Project" with your teens. Use this discussion guide to explore the themes in the movie and how they relate to your own family. Hear what real teens have to say. Did Gaby's experiment cross a line? Or was it worthwhile? Tell us what you think.

Kristin Cavallari and on-again, off-again fiance Jay Cutler have confirmed they are going to be parents. Sources close to the couple have also confirmed that this pregnancy was not planned.

For those of you unfamiliar with Cavallari and Cutler, she is a reality TV personality best known for her work on "The Hills" and "Dancing with the Stars." He is an NFL quarterback. They are both in their 20s. According to the tabloids, they met in 2010, got engaged eight months later, called off the engagement after a few months, got back together a few months after that, and then announced the pregnancy. They are "thrilled" and say "it is an amazing time in our life and we can't wait to meet the new addition to our growing family." We wish them all the best.

One of our moms has a major meltdown in this episode of Teen Mom 2 and it gets pretty scary. It looks like Jenelle has totally lost control over her life.

Things looked hopeful when Jenelle made the decision to move out of her mom's home for Jace's sake. She heads to social services with her mom, Barbara, to set up child support payments for Jace, but on the ride home they start to fight and Jenelle begins screaming at Barbara. Jenelle doesn't know how to communicate when she feels stressed. The first thing she resorts to is screaming and we have already heard her admit that not being able to smoke marijuana keeps her more on edge. We see and hear the screaming happen over and over in the episode. She is constantly arguing with Kieffer for various reasons, but her jealousy primarily stems from Kieffer texting a girl. In general, Jenelle rarely seems happy.

One of the more intriguing books of last year was Jeffrey Kluger's The Sibling Effect: What the Bonds Among Brothers and Sisters Reveal About Us.

Kluger, a TIME Magazine editor and writer, argues that of all the people we are related to or know, our siblings exert the most influence. He makes a credible case, drawing his conclusions on studies from around the globe.

He writes, "The universe of human relationships is an impossibly varied one. Every one of those relationships plays out under its own set of rules and rituals.... For all that richness and complexity, however, there may be no relationships that can run quite as deep or survive quite as long as those among siblings....Our spouses and children arrive comparatively late in our lives; our parents leave us too early."

Yesterday marked the 39th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. While all these years later many still disagree on the issue of abortion, many would agree on the value of focusing on efforts to reduce the need for abortion by preventing unintended pregnancy. And a significant way to prevent unintended pregnancy is to expand access to contraception.

And yet contraception has become a target of funding cuts in many states. New Jersey's cut of $7.5 million and Texas's cut of $73.6 million are just a couple of examples. This is happening even though contraception is widely supported. A June 2011 survey from Public Religion Research Institute (PDF) found that approximately eight in 10 (82%) Americans favor expanding access to birth control for women who cannot afford it, compared to only 16 percent who oppose it. Support is strong across all demographic, religious, and political groups, including the Tea Party.

All is not lost. A step in the right direction is a decision by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to include contraception as a preventive service under health reform, meaning health insurers must cover "all Food and Drug Administration approved contraceptive methods, sterilization procedures, and patient education and counseling for all women with reproductive capacity" without co-pays or deductibles for patients. Last week HHS elected to enforce this rule for almost all employers (PDF), making an exception only for those employers whose primary purpose relates to religious values and who serve and employ people who share those values--like churches.

But there is still much work to be done. A report by the CDC released last Thursday was the first to focus on teens who didn't want to get pregnant but did. They found that approximately one half (50.1%) of the teens surveyed were not using any method of birth control when they got pregnant.

Today, almost half (49%) of pregnancies in the U.S. are unplanned (PDF) and almost half of these end in abortion (43%). Regardless of one's stance on the legality or morality of abortion, contraception is critical to having healthier families and lower abortion rates.
