Plot

At 16, Star's life has changed drastically now that she's become the mother of a baby boy. To learn what's best for him, Star's taking classes at a center for teen moms. But she's having trouble keeping up with the baby's demands, and her grandmother is threatening to force her to put the baby up for adoption. To top it off, Wilson, a popular star athlete, is in denial about being the father. He doesn't know about Star's terrible, painful secrets. But as Wilson's friends and family push him to accept his responsibility, he learns the truth about Star's disturbing past, facts that change his life forever. Told from Star's and Wilson's points of view, STAR IN THE MIDDLE reveals a compelling snap shot of the difficult lives of teenage parents.
