No but I'd wager that most parents would at least have a few hours/minutes of yelling. Followed but uneasy acceptance after a few weeks of alternating rage/disappointement/helplessness/acceptance. The difficulties of a teen pregnancy were kind of quickly and efficiently dealt with in the movie without any mess (IMHO).
Kind of a "Life is Beautiful" vs a "Schindler's List".
