this episode was soooo sad. catelyn and tyler are extremely strong and mature people, espcially for only being 16. my boyfriend and I both cried watching this episode. I definately agree that they made the best but also the most extemely difficult choice for their child, and that was the most unselfish thing to do.

I think you shouldve done the alternative! but hey only you know what is best! Take Much Care! you both are very special!!!!

this is the most heart breaking episode but to me it seems that tyler is making catelynn get rid of the baby becuz he knows theres no turning back if they keep it.

I am so impressed with Tyler and Catelyn and think it would be wonderful if someone would set up a college fund for them...so they could go on to be their absolute best!

i've never watched this show besides today and it was Catelyn and Tylers episode. Once i saw Catelyn start crying when she and Tyler chose whoo they wanted to be their little girls parents i knew i wanted to somehow contact them and tell them how proud i was of them. i was so inspired by watching their experience and maybe if i had seen this before i would have inspired me so that i would have made a different decision. I'm 15 and i've been pregnant twice in 3 months, and i made the terrible mistake of abortion the first time. It was so hard i didnt sleep or eat for days after it and i really thought to myself how i wish i would have kept the babyy and given it a life. Then when i found out a few months later i was pregnant again i was too scared to tell anyone. I thought about having the baby so many times, but the shamefulness of not learning from my experiences got to me. I respect you Catelyn so much for the decision you made and for how you handled it, i dont know you but i am so proud of you and Tyler. I just wish i had the courage and selflessness you two have. When people watch this episode i hope they see that too. I dont know anything besides what i've seen on this episode but i know you are great people and extremely strong. And along w. that you really are a great couple stronger than i've ever seen at this age. I think you've made the best decision out of all these kids on the show and alot better then people like me who take the other choice. You made the hardest choice but the best and i wish you guys the best of luck and to your little girl too i hope she's happy and healthy and all of you have a good life. You definately deserve it.

out of all the episodes, this one has been my favorite. I loved the fact that catelynn and tyler where really there for each other. When the baby was born i couldn't believe how much i started crying! I know that they felt that their households weren't a good enough place to have a baby, and seriously i am so proud of them for doing that and completely respect that decision but i do feel that out of all the couples, they are the ones that i feel would have done the best job as parents! Plus, seriously, i think Tyler might be the best boyfriend in the world! I simply adored this episode

cocochanelbaby88 (7/30/2009 11:54:03 AM)

There episode was sooo sad i was crying sooo hard! i really like them a lot!

beatingheartx94 (7/28/2009 3:51:18 PM)

I cried so much during their episode. It is so sad to watch.

Beth (7/27/2009 6:10:53 PM)

Hi My name is Beth and here is a little piece of my story. I became pregnant when I was just 15 and turned 16 two weeks before giving birth. That was baby #1. When she was just 18 months old I gave birth to her younger brother. I was 17. It is the most difficult job I could have ever taken on. I was a mother of two children by the time I was 17! I was able to graduate high school on time thanks to my mom and my teachers that clearly understood more than I could what I was getting myself into. I can speak from personal experience when I say that adoption was the best, selfless decision Catelynn and Tyler could have made. I do not have to know either of you personally, but I have to say that I am so very proud of the both of you for making the "right" decision and supporting one another. I love my children and have always been there and provided for them to the best of my ability...BUT there are sacrifices for the children of teen parents. Being too young to have taken on such a tremendous responsibility definitely had me second guessing my choice to keep my children. It's NOT about ME. It is all about THEM. And I feel that if I could grasp the reality of my situation then- the way I am able to see it now, perhaps they could have had more/better. I am not with either of their fathers and nor have they been any help. Child support? yeah right, co-parenting? yeah right. Thank god for my mom and dad for being who they are or I never could have done it. I have finally found "Mr. Right" about 9yrs ago and he is everything I've ever dreamed of and he understood that becoming my husband meant he was getting a "ready made family" and he has taken it on as if he has always been in the picture. We have a son together and it is amazing, but it also comes with some regret. I feel that my older children deserved to grow up the same way my youngest is now... It hurts me to think that "maybe I shouldn't have been so selfish". Becoming a parent at any age is difficult and comes with plenty of challenges and sacrifices. To the parents that decided to keep their babies-I hope it all works out and to Catelynn and Tyler Carly will forever be grateful...So don't pay any attention to the negative comments clearly they have no idea what they are talking about. Listen to the song by Faith Hill-A Baby Changes Everything.

JessS (7/27/2009 3:21:55 PM)

I think that Catelynn and Tyler are just simply amazing! To realize that you can not provide for a child and unselfishly give that child to someone as deserving as the wonderful foster parents they chose just blows my mind. I simply can not say enough positive things about these two. I have noticed that there are a lot of negative comments about these two and it is simply horrible. I am sure they realize that they were very irresponsible by not being careful and they don't need the whole world telling them what they already know. The point is that you made the right decision for the child..the child came first. Not to mention I think it is absolutely wonderful that the foster parents and the birth parents have such a wonderful relationship. This will only benefit everyone involved. No matter what anyone says...you two are amazing. Don't let anyone tell you different.

Catelynn and Tyler, I am a mother of two boys,13 and 7.I got pregnant relatively young and decided to keep my child. However I am also adopted as is my boyfriend. We both watched your episode and it gave more healing in the hour of the show than I have had in 33 years. I respect you and Tyler so much for making the decision you both did.I have always wondered how my birth mother could make the decision that she did. By watching you I understood how heart wrenching it was for you both to come to your decision. You guys did the right thing. It was the most unselfish and loving thing I have ever witnessed.Thank you for putting your story and hearts out there.You made a big difference in my life and more importantly a tremendous difference in your childs.I wish you both the best of luck and for you both to achieve all the goals you set in life.

mom46 (7/25/2009 9:37:16 AM)

Good morning Catelynn, I am a mother of a 4 year old daughter. Watching you and Tyler simply took my breath away. I can only hope that she will grow up to be as strong as you. You two are more grown up and stronger than any teenagers I have seen or met. I work with a lot of teenagers everyday and not one would be able to do what you both have done. You are also two of the most UNselfish teens I have ever seen. I have a niece that is 17 and pregnant. I can only wish that she was a strong as you. I can't imagine how it must have felt carrying her for 9 months and then hand her to someone else. It could not have been easy. But giving her the life you know she deserves is the best gift you could give her. I love the fact that the parents are so greatful for your gift that they are giving back to you in the way of a semi open adoption. You may not have the full support from your mother, but you have more support from people you have never met. I just wanted to come thru that screen and hug you. I believe you and Tyler made the right choice. I hope you and Tyler stay together. You have gone thru so much and I just see so much love and respect between the two of you. I hope and pray for nothing but the best for both of you! You are both SO amazing. Keep the faith.

kimmy8042 (7/24/2009 9:09:43 PM)

Catelynn...I've never posted on anything ever, but I felt compelled to tell you how proud I am of you and Tyler for making such a mature decision. I myself am a adult child of an alcoholic (my mother- yours reminded me of mine SO much) and was impressed with the both of you right from the beginning. The way you both stood up to your families and were intent on making the right- the only decision for your daughter. I'm sure you've both heard this so many times, but you made the right decision...not only for your daughter, but for yourselves. That's what makes you parents, deciding what was right for her.. putting your child first. I commend you both on being so selfless as to want more for your child than either of you had growing up...I know.. I lived that life. I wish the best for the both of you.

Catelynn and tyler I signed up as soon as i watched you both. Am a teen mother myself and i just can't image myself without my little girl. I feel like if you felt like you couldn't provide for a baby then you shouldn't have spread you legs. Or tyler should have just wraped it up. easy as that. I probably couldn't have done it without my boyfriend by myside the whole way through. If you would have kept your baby you two would be closer and better people.

DeanJII (7/24/2009 1:46:29 PM)

Catelynn I must say that you are mature far beyond your years. My wife is 21 and younger in her mind than you. I absolutely admire you and would be honored if you would add me as a friend on Myspace if you have one. www.myspace.com/slghtlyjaded... I have so many questions so I hope you will be willing to.
