Happy National Teen Pregnancy Awareness Day from Hayden Panettiere and Bristol Palin. We are aware of the fact that Bristol is 18 and the mother of a four-month-old. The choice of Ms. Palin to become an ambassador for the Candie’s Foundation, which is working to prevent teen pregnancy, is a bit confusing.

On the one hand Bristol has been oh-so-careful to tell all and sundry that her son, Tripp, was not a mistake, but….that teen girls should practice abstinence. I suppose that Bristol learned the hard way that crossing your legs is a lot more effective than just crossing your fingers and hoping you won’t get pregnant, but you would think the message would have credibility coming from a young lady who actually practices abstinence, non?

Levi Johnston, ex fiance and baby daddy to Bristol Palin, had lots to say on Tyra Banks’ TV show. Not only did he share how his son, Tripp, was conceived (it was through practicing safe sex “most” of the time), but he also claims to be “pretty sure” that Sarah Palin knew they were having sex.

Johnston told Good Morning America when he and Palin split up earlier this year that he “needed to mature” before getting married. Where does blabbing about your sex life on national television fit into the whole maturity thing?

Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin

Bristol Palin and fiance Levi Johnston have gone their separate ways. The breakup occurred a few weeks ago and was a mutual decision, according to sources who spoke to People magazine. Just last month Palin told Fox News that she and Johnston were planning to wed after they finished high shool. The young couple are parents to a two-month old son, Tripp.

New parents Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston are finding that their son, Tripp, born December 27, 2008, is a bit of a handful. The little guy has been keeping them up at night.

The young parents are finding it challenging to look after their son and trying to complete their education at the same time. Levi is also working with his father, a construction engineer. Welcome to parenthood……

Bristol Palin and her fiance, Levi Johnston are the parents of a healthy baby boy. The 18-year-old daughter of Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin gave birth to Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston on Sunday in Palmer, Alaska. Baby Tripp weighed in at 7 lbs., 4 oz.

Congratulations to the happy parents.
