I watched the MSNBC video clip of this interview and the quality was horrible so I found this one from YouTube. It’s the 1st part of 2 parts on The Today Show.
I thought the interview was good and that Lynne Spears goes on to pretty much describe almost everything that’s in the book. I can’t imagine what else there could be.
But, doesn’t Lynne Spears also have a son? I wonder if she discusses that in her book. It seems like all we ever hear about is Britney Spears OR Jamie Lynn Spears.
I had no idea that Britney’s Father was an alcoholic. That explains why he and Lynne Spears are divorced. He must be a recovered alcoholic if they’ve put him in charge of Britney’s fortune.
Are you planning on getting the book? Have you read the book yet? What did you think of it? Do you think it’s a waste of time and money OR would you recommend that somebody like me read it?
It’s not trendy and it is not fabulous OR glamorous. Teenage pregnancy is downright sad for the teen and neglect of the parents for laying down the rules and not following through to make sure that the rules are being followed.
My teen thinks I’m strict but looking back and knowing what’s going on in today’s world I’m glad that we have rules and that we follow through on them.
My daughter has a friend that she has known since elementary school that is going to have a baby in March. She told me about it last night. My daughter says that she has respect for her friend for going through high school pregnant and for making the decision to keep the baby.
We also think that there is another friend of hers that is pregnant. Everybody is speculating because she’s starting to be a bit on the pudgy side and every time one of their friends confronts her about being pregnant she just laughs.
Is that the right reaction? I don’t know. I think if it were me and somebody at school accused me of being pregnant I would be ticked off. I wouldn’t laugh about it. Would you?
I sure hope that these girls are not trying to follow in the footsteps of Jamie Lynn Spears.
If you are a parent of a teen do not allow your teen to hang out with just anybody. You have to make sure you know the friends that they are spending time with and you have to pick up the phone and communicate with the parents of their friends to make sure that they will be home when the kids are hanging out.
“I didn’t believe it because Jamie Lynn’s always been so conscientious,” Lynne Spears told OK! “She’s never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby.”
The teenager said during her OK! sitdown that she hadn’t yet informed Nickelodeon, which carries Zoey 101, about this latest turn of events, but the network is obviously in the loop now.
“We respect Jamie Lynn’s decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation,” Nickelodeon said in a statement Tuesday as soon as word of Spears’ pregnancy started to get out. “We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is for Jamie Lynn’s well being.”
Just because kids are not late for curfew doesn’t mean that they aren’t having sex. Parents need to be more involved with who their kids are hanging out with, where, when, and know exactly what they are doing. My kids don’t “hang out” unless I know there is parental supervision. If mom and dad aren’t home to confirm then my kid doesn’t go!
I do think that this is a fluke that would have happened regardless of who her sister is. It’s just strange to think about what it is that we are supposed to learn from this family? What type of roll models are they for other young people? No, I don’t think she’s following in her sisters foot-steps.
