I believe this song is about a simple unplanned birth.
The bear represents a baby that neither of them wanted, but either they're families moral values were against getting an abortion. And now that they come home with a baby, they are forever inseparable.
Also, he is still only 21, and that makes them too young to be regular parents in the typical american standards. And, with the addition of the bear, they appear to be too old to their old in their friends' eyes.
