Question The Secret Life of the American Teenager series???

Have any of you seen this show? Just curious what your opinion is on it? I think it is completely inappropriate for young teens! I know I sound like I'm 60but I mean all they talk about is sex every other sentence- no joke! I was in Middle school like 8 years ago and I know times have changed but hardly anyone talked about things like this ALL THE TIME.

I think this show is trying to bring awareness to teen pregnancy and such (especially with all the teenager pregnancy issues all over the news) but I think it's going about the wrong way. Watching the show really made me uncomfortable because they were soooo young and I am almost 24!! My little sister who is 12 and just started middle school watched some parts of it and kept saying "ew" and stuff and so I changed the channel. I don't think any middle school kids should be watching it even though all the actors/actresses are middle schoolers (or at least playing the part of one). I think it is kind of like the whole "D.A.R.E" program and how it stopped in many places because it actually made kids more curious about drugs and so more prone to try it.. I think this show just makes kids more curious about sex!

Just want to know if I am the only one who thinks this show is a bit "too much" for young kids to watch?
