I completely agree. Bethany has promise but they keep putting her in these adult situations and I'd rather see her behave more like a teenager to balance it out a bit. I could believe her having a crush on Gary that seems more realistic, but Im already dreading watching this Nathan guy and this whole thing start to unfold.
It seems she's following in her mothers path of being in many adult storylines while still being a teenager:

Sarah had two children (Bethany and Bily )
Fancied an older man called Sam Kingston
She was Internet groomed by a man called Gary Adams
Went joyriding in Ken's car with Aiden Critchley which ended in a car crash
Moved out and moved in with Todd

I agree, and as a Sarah and Gary fan, it's a shame they've broken up. I'm still hoping they reunite soon.
Me too.

How incredibly........boring, and a sad reflection of what's considered acceptable in this country.
Yes, boring, repetitive and sad, MR_Pitkin.

Great character, good beautiful young actress, Corrie bosses and writers will screw it up completely with ludicrous story lines. Its a cert!!!
I fully agree with your comments about Bethany. The young actress is all you say she is.
I too hope they don't spoil her. The young character has had far too much trauma in her life already and needs a bit of ok life for a while ( yes I know that won't be for long being in a soap).

Thanks, I thought Sarah most likely would've been the youngest grandmother in Coronation Street's history if Bethany did get pregnant now.
It's easily retconned. There's nothing to stop them saying that Bethany popped a couple of sprogs out when she was living in Milan. In ten years time, we'll probably get some teenage Italian slapper turn up on Gail's doorstep and give birth on the spot.

In fact, given the way that Corrie is written these days, I'd say it's almost guaranteed.

Agreed. I thought the same when I read the original post. How can it be "fab" for a girl of her age, in her circumstances, to get pregnant? I despair, I really do. And yes, I do know it's just a television programme, but unfortunately a lot of people are influenced by a lot less.
