well what i think is that the way these seasons are set up is very annoying. there havent been many episodes, and over the summer there were like 7. the shows comes for a month or two then leaves for a few months then comes back for a month or two--its the same thing. the seasons should be set up better, all im gonna say.

nicolover123's picture

i agree the way it is arranged totally [filtered word].

i luv justin bieber

AmynRickyfan178's picture

I miss everything about this show but if i had 2 choose i wood say i miss the drama!!!!

Amy+Ricky 4eva
Hi John, Daddy's here i love u! <3
When everything else is bad in our lives at least we got him.
I mite not love anyone else but i love my son! <3

annysha's picture

Puzzled I love this show but to be honest as a teenage mother of three I just don't understand why everyone thinks that Amy should be with Ricky just becuase they have a son together being teen parents is hard enough without being stuck in a relationship when you really don't love each other Amy and Ricky will always be connected because of John but personally I don't think that he wants to be with Amy he just feels guilty about how their situation played out.

livelaughlove_'s picture

Not all of us think they should be together strictly because of John. John is, however, ultimately the purpose of their connection, but he is not the (only) reason they should be together. He did create a bond between the two, but he didn't create the chemistry. They did. Chemistry is extremely important in every relationship to have. If there is no chemistry, there is no love. That's not to say that just because two people have chemistry they love each other, but hopefully you know what I'm getting at. I don't see chemistry between Ben and Amy, so I believe they don't love each other. They probably developed feelings for each other, but that's completely different and doesn't mean a thing. Crushes don't count when you're questioning if two people belong together. In my opinion, I don't think any of us know for sure whether or not any of the couples in mind belong together. We'll just have to wait and see how the show plays out.
