This week's episode of MTV's 16 and Pregnant brought us Kailyn who spent most of her pregnancy trying to hide her bump. Kailyn was dating her boyfriend Joe for only 9 months before she discovered she was pregnant and had to turn to Joe's family for help.

Joe seemed to be getting less and less tolerant of having Kailyn not only in his home but also in his bed and spent much of his time angry. "I'm sacrificing a lot to have her here" Joe yells at his parents. "It was her decision to make!"

But Joe's mother isn't buying his teenage reaction to this very adult problem. "She is the mother of your child and you are going to have to live with this for the rest of your life!" Janet yells at him.
