Awww! Chelsea Houska's Aubree is one of my favorite Teen Mom "babies."
Chelsea recently talked to Celebrity Baby Scoop about what she and Aubree, 3, have been up to since we last saw them on Teen Mom 2. These days, Aubree is all about Barbies and playing dress up. No doubt, her dress up outfits include a lot of leopard prints. In addition to raising Aubree, Chelsea has been busy with Beauty college. Chelsea said, "It has been hard juggling school and being a mom but hair is something I’ve always enjoyed doing so school has been pretty fun.”
While Barbies and beauty school do sound like fun, Chelsea was quick to point out the hardships she had to face as a teen mom. She disagrees with the naysayers who claim Teen Mom glamorizes teen pregnancy. Chelsea said, "I think the show does a great job of showing the reality of getting pregnant young. Teen pregnancy has always been an issue and I think some people are just uncomfortable with the fact that it’s being brought up in such a big way.”
“I feel like a lot of the time people who criticize Teen Mom / Teen Mom 2 haven’t ever even watched the show," Chelsea added. "I don’t understand how someone who has seen the show and watched us all have struggles and has seen us all cry would think that it looks glamorous. I personally don’t find poopy diapers, bad relationships, and school struggles glamorous at all!"

According to Chelsea… despite MTV's best efforts, teens will still have sex. She thinks education is the key to preventing teen pregnancy. And not just for the girls… "Guys need to be educated, too. The guy shouldn’t just rely on the girl to be on birth control and the girl shouldn’t just rely on the guy to use a condom. Both should be using contraceptives," Chelsea said.
Chelsea went on to say that she has a different approach to life these days. “I’ve really learned a lot about what’s important in life," Chelsea shared. "I don’t stress about the small stuff and I’ve learned to appreciate the good things a lot more than I used to."
When asked about Aubree's dad Adddumb Adam Lind, Chelsea avoided answering whether or not she and Adam co-parent well. She simply said there's "always some kind of issue" where Adam is concerned. Chelsea concluded, "People will have to watch Teen Mom 2 to see how that has been playing out.”
