I think this is an interesting perspective - the impact on the baby:
There are plenty of celebrities and politicians who make bad decisions as parents but take a public position that they are actually role models. The latest and perhaps most unfortunate example is Bristol Palin, the mother of a 4-month-old boy who is now taking on the role of spokeswoman to prevent teen pregnancy.
Bristol, the 18-year-old daughter of defeated vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, appeared yesterday on the "Today" show and at an event with "Good Morning America" host Chris Cuomo to promote abstinence in her new role as teen ambassador for the Candie's Foundation, whose goal is to prevent teen pregnancy.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Sarah Palin's new book reprises familiar claims from the 2008 presidential campaign that haven't become any truer over time. Ignoring substantial parts of her record if not the facts, she depicts herself as a frugal traveler on the taxpayer's dime, a reformer without ties to powerful interests and a politician roguishly indifferent to high ambition.
Palin goes adrift, at times, on more contemporary issues, too.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Gov. Sarah Palin charged the state for her children to travel with her, including to events where they were not invited, and later amended expense reports to specify that they were on official business.
The charges included costs for hotel and commercial flights for three daughters to join Palin to watch their father in a snowmobile race, and a trip to New York, where the governor attended a five-hour conference and stayed with 17-year-old Bristol for five days and four nights in a luxury hotel.
