Trinity, NC - A teen mother is upset with the Randolph County School system because they won't allow her senior yearbook photo to be published.

The school asked students to bring props for their photo and Caitlin Tiller who attends Wheatmore High School took her picture holding her child.

"This is ridiculous because, if people can bring their football, their musical instrument, their pets, with their siblings. But I can't take a picture with my son? I don't understand," said Tiller.

The school's yearbook told her, the picture would be pulled because a baby in a school yearbook photo was not school related.

Tiller said she told about the picture being pulled, just two days before the yearbooks were to be printed. And she believes the yearbook photo guidelines were unclear.

Another news site's Facebook page says the school staff told Caitlin that her photo promoted teen pregnancy.

"A high school student in North Carolina says her school pulled the yearbook photo she took holding her son. Last summer, the school invited seniors to include a prop in their senior picture that represents an achievement or something that best represents them. Just two days before the yearbook was printed, Caitlin Tiller says school staff told her the picture was being pulled because it promoted teen pregnancy."

What do you guys think? And please do watch the video and read the articles before posting.

- Do you think the school was right to ban the photo?
- Do you think it promotes teen pregnancy?
- Do you think having a baby and finishing high school is an achievement?

Not many teen moms finish high school. And at least she didn't abort the baby. She gave birth to him, and went on to finish school.

Discuss.
