Movies And Specials: Too Young To Be A Dad

Synopsis: "Too Young to Be a Dad" is an emotional tale of teen pregnancy, told from the unique point of view of a young man and his parents. Elementary school teacher Susan Freeman (Kathy Baker) and her husband, Dan (Bruce Davison), are the proud parents of Matt (Paul Franklin Dano), a freshman honor student and an all-around good kid.

After Matt's straight A's land him a gig as the tutor of a pretty fellow student named Francesca, their study breaks quickly turn into make-out sessions and, eventually, a full-blown sexual relationship.

Uncomfortable with the situation, Matt cools things down, only to discover that Francesca is pregnant. Her parents are determined to put the baby up for adoption, but Matt wants to "do the right thing" and marry Francesca. Worried about her son and soon-to-be grandchild, Susan must put aside her own disappointment and regret and help Matt make a decision that will change the rest of their lives.
