Dr. Phil

Pregnant at 11 (12x24)

Air date: Oct 11, 2013

At just 11 years old, Hope became pregnant with her then 13-year-old boyfriend, Bailey’s, child — Ashlynn, now 7 months old. Hope’s mother, Lisa, says she was shocked to learn about her daughter’s pregnancy — when Hope was six months along. But Hope’s father, Matt, his fianceé, Kayla, and Bailey’s parents all say that Lisa is largely to blame for Hope’s decisions, and claim she continued to enable her daughter by concealing her pregnancy for months. How does Lisa respond to their allegations? And where were all the other parents? Can Dr. Phil get them to stop pointing fingers at each other, and start focusing on what’s best for their children and grandchild? Plus, hear from Hope and Bailey. Do they want custody of Ashlynn, who is currently being cared for by Hope’s aunt? What is their relationship now? And, are they still having unprotected sex? Then, Dr. Phil weighs in. What does he think is best for Ashlynn? And, what advice does he have for these families moving forward? This program contains strong sexual content. Viewer discretion advised.
