I recently started watching Life Unexpected about a month ago. A really good friend of mine has netflix and when I went home one weekend to visit, she introduced me to the show and we started back at season one. At first I thought it was going to be super cheesy and predictable but now I quite enjoy it. The story line is about a 16 year old named Lux who wanted to find her parents so that she could be emancipation and ultimetly live with her boyfriend instead of being tossed around from foster home to foster home.
This is Lux. She is pretty mature for her age however has alot to learn. Growing up without a stable home life and parents that love her makes her character come off a little feisty and rude to her 'parents' that eventually gain custody back when she seeks emancipation. In the episode I am in now, she is deciding whether her relationship with Bug is going to far because he proposed and that is not what she wants at the moment.
This is Cate. Cate is the mother of Lux. She gave up Lux after child birth because she had nor the money or time to take care of her. This obviously becomes one of her deepest regrets once she sees Lux 16 years later. At the time, she is engaged to marry Ryan who is also her co-worker and is what one would call, 'the perfect guy'.
This is Baze. Baze was the popular high school jock who slept around and in doing so he knocked up one of the nerdy, unpopular girls, Cate. He never knew of the pregnancy and didn't know until Lux shows up with the papers. He was blindsided by this but when he calmed down he wanted to take on the responsibility and slowly trade in his lady man ways and be a respectful father. He loves Lux and tries very hard, however he secretly is crushing on Cate again and causes problems with Ryan.
