Jamie Lynn Spears was raised in a totally different environment to the rest of us, so she obviously has her own idea of what’s fun.
So what does Jamie Lynn Spears think is fun? Sport? Watching TV, maybe? No – according to Jamie Lynn Spears, being a constant slave to a screaming little fleshbag that’s stolen the rest of your life and won’t respond to reason or logic is fun.
We’re referring, of course, to Jamie Lynn Spears’ new baby. Jamie Lynn has been frothing and fizzing about how brilliant it is to be a teenage mother to OK! as part of a $1 million deal with the magazine that’s thought to include rights to interviews, baby photos and the inevitable ‘I hate my baby and wish it was never born’ postnatal depression exclusive, pencilled in for Christmas.
There’s nothing that thrusts someone into maturity quite as fast as parenthood. Take Britney Spears for example. Before she gave birth to her first baby, Britney was a slip of a girl who couldn’t be trusted to make any decision for herself. But since she became a mother, Britney Spears has… no, wait, bad example.
Let’s take her sister Jamie Lynn Spears instead, then. True, Jamie Lynn may have shocked the world by getting pregnant while she was still at school to an older boy she met at church, but that mistake of hers has resulted in the creation of a new life that, while technically a Spears, still almost qualifies as completely human.
Jamie Lynn Spears gave birth to her little bundle of sexual irresponsibility, a little girl named Maddie, last month. Since having her baby, Jamie Lynn Spears has been quietly sheltering it from media attention by raising it in Mississippi with her boyfriend, who may or may not be a ‘lying, cheating dog‘.
But now that baby Maddie is past that that all-important ’10 days old’ mark, Jamie Lynn Spears has rightly guessed that now’s a good enough time to run screaming to the nearest magazine and blab endlessly about the tot for cash.
Which she has – this week’s OK! magazine has a cover featuring Jamie Lynn Spears and her new baby, and an interview with the new mother inside.
But before you start getting all judgmental about how it’s morally wrong to sell out a baby to a magazine when it’s too young to give its consent, think again.
Ever since she announced her pregnancy, Jamie Lynn Spears has had to battle presumptions that she’s too young to become a mother, and this OK! interview was the perfect chance for her to explain her feelings in a measured, well thought-out manner that would leave nobody questioning her emotional maturity.
So, Jamie Lynn Spears, the floor is yours. What profound insights can you give us on the subject of motherhood?
“I love taking care of her. It is so much fun. I just want to hug her and kiss her, and I’m happy all the time.”
Oh.
Well, never mind. Don’t forget that Jamie Lynn Spears is still only 17 years old, so you can’t expect her to be able to verbalise her thoughts as lucidly as others. Besides, it looks very much like Jamie Lynn Spears wants to be a full-time mother, and that means she won’t be starring in any more rubbishy TV shows. That baby really is a blessing.
So let’s just congratulate Jamie Lynn Spears on her new baby and pray it never succumbs to the mental illness issues that have plagued other members of her family.

Are you kidding me? she is young. SO WHAT!!!! I bet your grandparents and great grandparents started in their teens too. Its just a little thing called life!
I have 2 questions.
#1: What is the average age for young boys and girls to start going through puberty. Age for boys when they can first ejaculate? Age for girls when they get their 1st period? I dont know the answer but 12 13 14?
#2: Why does that cycle start at such a young age?
Im not saying its right for kids to have kids, but its just life. If we were supposed to adapt to it, wouldnt our bodies evolve to make puberty begin at 18? There are grown adults that have children and dont take care of them. Age doesnt really matter when you think of it like that does it?
I think everyone here is missing the point, including the author of this article. The media has the ability to make a positive impact, but chooses to do the opposite. Instead of writing about a celebrity who gave birth to a child outside of marriage at the age of 17, why not write about a girl who graduated early from high school and is in medical school that may one day help cure cancer. Why not write about the 17-year-old gymnast or figure skater who is preparing for the Olympics? By writing about an unwed, pregnant 17-year-old, the youth of America never even hear about what others their age are accomplishing.
A Respectable (?) Woman…. Yes nothing says unconditional love like sending your child to an institution to hide away her shame so she can’t sully your family’s good name, while the young father in question is free to cavort and knock up the rest of the town. Good times, good times. If you’ll remember correctly, Ms. Respectable Lady, at the same point in time that you are so fondly remembering, racism used to be an acceptable, and even encouraged societal practice as well. Not to mention that women weren’t women. They were property. Dinner making, laundry washing, baby machines. If you were a woman in the 50′s, you didn’t go to college to get an education, you went to college to find a husband, assuming that you didn’t find one in high school, you old spinster, you. You want to talk about poor judgement, there’s your poor judgement right there. So before we start to remember the “Good ‘ol days”, we should keep in mind that they were only good if you were a professional white male. We are so incredibly, and thankfully, far gone from those times.
You are a sick moron for referring to motherhood and a new born child as ” being a constant slave to a screaming little fleshbag that’s stolen the rest of your life and won’t respond to reason or logic.
I’m no fan of the Spears’ girls, or seeing Jamie Lynn pregnant at 16, but that is nothing compared to the contempt I have for what you have written. You should be terminated immediately for writing that you sick ashole. Perhaps your parents should have viewed you the same way, and thrown you in a garbage bag and to the side of the road when you were 10 days old.
geeze…everyone thats commented on here is like angry at one another. It was funny to read you alls comments. lol. Anyways, as for Jamie, she is just another girl having a baby at a young age. I could care less about her. I dont feel sorry for her…her show sucks, and frankly she really isnt a good actress. i dont hate her, i just feel sorry for her baby. I want the little girl to grow up with good morals and a little common sense. Jamie is going to get all the publicity she wants, but that doesnt matter. I hope she cares enough about her baby to change her lifestyle around and train her kid correctly. And stop all of the adultry she is in.
This article was great. It was a good thing to read during lunch. Jamie Lynn is a fool, but she’s got money, so none of this matters.
Oh, and kudos to everyone that told Racheal off. She need to be put in her place. What a bitch! You go, Frustrated Mom!! I want to personally thank The One and Ash, too.
Also, I think we can all agree that gir is an idiot who feeds off of criticism like a parasite. Feed off of this one, asshole!
I thought it was well written. And entertaining too.
I don’t really care what Jamie Lynn chooses to do with her life, however as a mother I am extremely disgusted with the way this article has been written. It is one thing to talk down upon Jamie Lynn’s decisions, but to speak about an innocent child in such a way is just wrong. “…a screaming little fleshbag that’s stolen the rest of your life and won’t respond to reason or logic…” What? Most parents would agree that their children have brought more meaning to their lives and not “stolen” them. “Since having her baby, Jamie Lynn Spears has been quietly sheltering it from media attention by raising it in Mississippi.” A baby is not an “it” a baby is a human being and should be referred to as such. Would you refer to any other human as “it”? (What did John do last night? Oh, it went to a bar) I don’t think so. How would you like to be referred to as “it” Stuart Heritage? I guess all I have to say about Stuart Heritage’s article is that “it” (meaning Stuart Heritage) didn’t do a very good job.
Let’s face it… the chick is loaded. Why does she care if she has a baby? You guys really think she’ll be taking care of it? Hello – “nanny”. I can’t bash the kid for anything she says or does because she’s just that – a kid. She won’t have a hard road ahead of her… if she wants to take off to Vegas, she takes off to Vegas… wants to go out… she goes out… it’s not like a multi-millionaire has to worry about staying home with the baby. …but if she’s a good mom, she will. Time will tell!
Ok, can we stop saying Jamie is so good for raising her baby??? She hasn’t done it yet. Christ, she only just had her daughter and some of you out there are saying she’s so great for raising her baby. We all saw how great Britney did with her kids and she had the same “oh I love them they’re great” attitude at the beginning. Now her kids have rotted teeth, badly nourished and not the most healthy kids in the world. Oh yes, Jamie is doing a great job having her picture taken and getting money for it. Great job!
So what if she is a teen mom and is glorifying motherhood. What else can she do??… I am pretty sure she knows she screwed up and doesn’t need all the tabloids critizing her. What was she suppose to talk about in her interview?…How she just totally fucked up her life…??
@Turning 15:
But the real question is:
Are your PARENTS proud that you’re pregnant?
ya know what i think its bull that everyone is making a huge deal about one teen thats famous getting pregnant. do you people see how many other teens there are out there that are pregnant and alone but you only care about the famous one. and shes the bad person. i dont think so dont put it all on one person. and for those of you who think your kids are gonna do it cuz she did and shes a bad influence if your as good a parent as you think you are they wont. wow way to show the world you think your kids are dumb enough to make those mistakes and not care that they are there own people and can make there own decisions.
so stupid… thats all
All I know is Jamie is a hottie. I wish I could knock her up.
Wow. That’s all I can say. I’m currently at work, and seeing this articile just wants to make me laugh.
I went through high school when girls thought it was cool to get knocked up before they graduate. Let alone use drugs/weed/acohol to impare their judgment. I was one of the very few that didn’t do those activities. Instead, I got out in 3 years of High School, worked full time and went to college at the age of 17. I enlisted in the military when I was 6 months aways from turning 19. And I’m still greatful to wait til I’m married to do anything outragious outofwedlock.
Now, don’t go all crazy on this, but seeing how Now everyone starts complaining about this when I’ve seen this first hand and its no surprise that this has been happening. So for parents that blame the media, seriously, do you really think thats going to solve all your problems when something that you couldn’t teach your own children to stay away from?
I was on my own since I was 12 and I didn’t want to be in a hell hole when I reached adulthood.
Education is a must to understand the realites of this world. But I’ve noticed that the kids were raised by parents that were kids themselves. Which makes sense.
I’m not going after anyone and I offend my apologises. I came from a lower-middle class family and I had to work to help make ends meet.
Anyways, I’ve put in my 2 cents about this subject. Back to work and contuning my pursuit in my career with the military.
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU JUDGE PEOPLE FOR JENNY. SOMEDAY YOU JUST MIGHT BE A JEALOUS, UNSUCCESSFUL, UNSTABLE PROBLEMATIC HOUSEWIFE YOURSELF:)
glorifying teen pregnancy is wrong period. Jamie lynn may have the same problems as some teen mothers crying babies etc but at least she can afford her fleshbag but it does not make it right she should think about her audience most of them cant afford to be teen parents like her
I know all you parents are concerned, but this columnist is drawing the wrong line in the sand. Okay, a young girl made a decision. She got pregnant, and now, she’s being a mother. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’d give a lifetime to just be a parent right now. Some of you have forgotten what it means when our Good Lord blesses us with the ability to have children.
OK so JLS has some serious issues!! Being a teen mom is NOT fun and definitely NOT easy!I was a teenage mom 17 years ago and while i don’t regret having him I could’ve waited. I think she’s trying to cover up how she REALLY feels. Rearing a child is NO walk in the park~ especially when you’re 17. She’s not sending out the right message!
I was a teenage mother at 15, it was difficult and as a result I wasn’t as wonderful of a mother as I was later when I had my other two children. I think everyone learns with the first child regardless of age. But I wasn’t bad either. I missed out on a lot of fun things my friends did. I lived on my own and worked at 16 in a doctor’s office; I grew up fast. Motherhood wasn’t “fun” every waking moment, but I wouldn’t change it. I have the most amazing strong willed, smart, humorous kids in the world. We didn’t have a lot but had enough. My grandchildern are amazing; I love them more than anything. My Grandmother (91) is a wise woman. She would always say in 10 years will it matter? She sent me Erma Bombeck books that made me see the funny side of motherhood. I only had my Grandparents, long distance, but it was enough. I now have a great circle of family that I created and I am very happy and content. Bless her heart she has only just begun on her journey. I wish her the very best. She has money and family, they will both be fine. We have to stop throwing rocks at people and learn to tolerate and respect each other. No one is perfect and we are all God’s kids. Remember she had a choice and chose life; that is something to respect. My heart hurts for those who know the pain of making a choice. Whatever a person decides remember they alone have to live with it; use compassion in all you say and do. Peace to all.
first, leave the family out of it. she is not her sister, just as YOU are not your sibling.
the magazing is not GLORIFYING teen pregnancy. it is simply showing a young teen mother who is taking responsiblity for her actions and raising her daughter with love and affection.
for those of you knocking on her parents for not doing a good job of raising her, look at your own kids. sex, drugs and alcohol are a part of todays society and its true.. we’re all exposed.
check the statistics: in 2001 60.5% of 12th graders had engaged in INTERCOURSE.
I think all you people who are bashing on Jamie Lynn just like being mean. You all remind me of a medievel crowd of peasants screaming and throwing rotten vegetables at someone.
Nice one Stu, looks like you’ll break 100
on the first day!
NONE OF YOU PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE CHILDREN!!! EVER!!!
The future of the human family depends on
cloning midgets who obviously consume less food, water, and air
and take up less space. Aquatic midgets would be
best, because of the likelihood of flooding in the future.
Yeah, midgets with fins instead of this lot of clueless
and/or sanctimonious defensive asswipe gutter-fucking pinheads.
It shocks me to read all the responses. First off I had my son at 17, he is now 22. I was married and yes I finished school. Teens shouldn’t think it is the cool thing to do but it happens. We all do things that aren’t at the right time. Hopefully if a young woman does become pregnant she has support from her family. For all you people that are judging others get off your high horse.
Live and let live!!! Oh and people should really mind their own business and take a peek in their own closets. Have a great day!
You have got to be kidding me !!!!!Everyone is acting like this is the first teen in history to get pregnant.There have been teen pregnancies since our mothers’ mothers. There was a time when you would be considered an old maid if you didn’t have children by 20. As long as she is taking good care of her baby ,why would you tear her down? These young parents also have a lot more to offer this baby then a lot of older women who got pregnant on a one night stand drunk at a bar.The baby is here, so how about instead of pointing out the negatives give Jamie Lynn some encouragement. She probably could use some advice like any new mom. I was married at 16 and had children at a very young age. My oldest just turned 18 and guess what, we made it through just fine. And I’m sure with the way the Paparazzi is, no one would ever give her an inch to make a mistake !!!! Don’t worry Jamie Lynn, you look beautiful and when Maddie is all grown up, you will still be young enough to enjoy your grandchildren. That is a blessing most people never get.
I can’t believe the Spears family what a waste. Both Britney and Jamie had everything going for them until they decided to grow up too quickly. I can’t believe teenage girls even think that having a baby is fun and they must feel now if Jamie Lynn can do it so can they..ahh WRONG. Jamie Lynn has $$$$$ she can afford a full-time Nanny to take care of the baby anytime she needs it. The average teen is still living home with their parents can’t even afford their own car let alone a child. 17 years old don’t know anything about being a mother. I hope she stays in Mississippi and lives off her money and stays out of the lime light.
Wow! A lot of hostility and butt-ugly attitude here from people. What’s with the vile language. Many posters here REEK of foul attitudes! How can anyone take one’s views seriously when they spew nastiness. (I’m not referring to those who have enough brains to have an ADULT point of view on this matter an can manage to debate with some level of respect.) But thanks to the lack of unintelligence from some of these posters who would just rather marinate in ugliness than show any class, I’d just as well put a needle in my eye than read another line. Thanks for showing me how much reading these types of discussions are an absolute waste of time. OOPS! Now I’m sounding like you—the Bug-Up-The-ButtITIS must be contagious.;)
to the parents on this site shunning teen pregnancy:
dont sit on your computer and rant about teen pregnancy, rather use this as a good time to talk to your daughters. if you dont believe in premarital sex, try and instill that on their brains. but dont forget, we all make bad decisions, and we all make mistakes. some teens WILL have sex. face it. make sure let your kids know that you look down upon it, but incase their morals and values arent exactly as uptight as yours they need to know to at least be smart about it and use birth control.
dont forget that over 95% of all people (including religious people) engage in premarital sex. abstinence is no longer the way of life. get over it. accept it.
before you go pointing your finger at others, look at yourselves. you’re not perfect. we all make mistakes. YOU, i’m sure have made mistakes.
how well do you think you know your kids? you’d be suprised at what they arent telling you and what they are lying to you about. your kids arent perfect, so you can stop thinking that your kids are perfect little angels and that they have done nothing wrong. i am 16 years old, going into my senior year of high school, i think i would know what im talking about when i say that.
if you ever have the chance, sit down and talk to a teenage mother, but go into it with an open mind. i know a few, and every single one of them admitted it was a mistake to have unprotected sex, but they all love their babies deeply and want the best for them. these girls are strong, and they have to be to make a life for themselves and their babies. finishing up college, starting their careers and being a mother on top of that is a real task, and they are all doing it to their best.
just because jamie lynn is now a happy mother doesnt make me want to have a baby as a teen. teen pregnancy is not being glorified, and if you think that it is and that your kids are impressionable enough to believe that everything in the tabloids is cool, you obviously havent been the best parent.

Wow. How polarizing. Not to yearn for the “good old days” as many of you so disdainfully refer to any year before 1984, but I remember when we used to be able to have discussions on serious topics without ever using any derivitive of the word “fuck”, or brilliantly referring to someone that disagrees with our point of view as a “cunt”. Do you think that advances your opinion? Does it make you sound intelligent? Yep, makes me want to go out with you for coffee and see what other cute little comments might be fomenting in that pinhead of a brain that God put in your skulls. I also find it funny that many of the people that preach “open-mindedness” in their posts are the most closed-minded people in this so-called civil discussion, but then again, intolerance of any opinion other than theirs is the mark of the modern day American liberal.
I think Jamie Lynn made a mistake. That’s my opinion, and regardless of how many of you may call me names that you’d never want YOUR children to hear, it’s completely valid. Now, I don’t think that she should be publicly crucified for the mistake, but when she goes to the media and brags about how blissfully happy she is and how she’s going to be a stay at home mom, she invites criticism. SURE, it’s easy to be blissfully happy and never work when you can sell your story to a magazine for $1 million (in addition to all of your T.V revenues), but what about all of the other people in her position who AREN’T famous? What then? It’s not that easy. You can’t “just stay home” unless your parents are paying for you and your kid or you’re on public aid – which should NEVER be anyone’s goal in life. Sorry but the media IS glorifying the behavior by fawning all over this child and her baby. (Sorry to the 17-and-under crowd on here, but you ARE still children.) You want a fair story? Talk about all of the teens who have never achieved what they set out to achieve in life because they made the same mistake as Jamie Lynn. Show some of THEM too. Oh yeah, that’s reality and reality isn’t cool. Just because a few people succeed at being single teen parents doesn’t mean that we should glorify the behavior as wholesome and normal. It’s not, and the poverty facts prove it.
When did we start pretending that there are no values? When did we start pretending that ANY behavior is OK as long as it makes you FEEL good? About the same time we stopped treating each other with any respect whatsoever. Regardless of which side of this debate you’re on, listen to yourselves people! Many of you sound like ignorant fools.
I know some people that are in their 20′s & 30′s that have kids & don’t take care of them. Age is only a number!! If she’s not asking you for help then you shoudn’t worry what she does.
You’re right… SHAME on that girl for taking the responsibility for her actions and finding a positive side to things. Who in their right minds enjoys kissing and loving their newborn child?
I bet you and all the leeching gossip columnists like you are just thrilled to have another person to make a buck off of.
If anybody is exploiting this baby, it’s you and the media. Calling the baby a “little bundle of sexual irresponsibility”? That baby buttered your bread this week, didn’t she? Have some respect. Maybe one day you’ll grow up and become a real journalist. Shame on you.
Congratulations on telling it like it is. Thank you!! Babies having babies is nothing to aspire to. How wonderful if we could all be millionaires and not have to worry about the error of our ways when having a baby so young. She doesn’t have to quit school and get a job as a waitress, or give up her friends, or face family embarrassment. She’s a celebrity so this is just another photo op that will help her career.
Good luck to this child. It’ll be in therapy working this out for years. As for Jamie Lynn she’ll just go down as another white-trash no talent loser, but at least she’s rich. You go girl!
Omg! I cant belive people are posting this! LEAVE THE SPEARS FAMILY ALONE! God! Even if i dont belive in Teens gettin Preggers that doesnt mean i dont think babies are WONDERFUL! I may be 12 but i know alot!
Ok…the magazine Ok! needs to do a follow up when young Maddie is sick and screaming her head off at 2 in the morning and Jamie Lynn has to go into work and can’t call off… Teen pregnacy is still an issue in our country. Our young ladies and young men have great difficulty taking care of themselves much less a baby. My philosphy is if you can take care of a plant, then get a dog. If you can take care of the dog, then consider having a child. Kids need to be kids. I do know some great teen mothers but they’ve realized too late how altered their course in life has become. Some of them will still reach their goals and others will have to change their goals. It’s not easy raising a child at any age. I’m glad Jamie Lynn is happy and having fun but she really had an opportunity to make a difference with her fan base. Maybe she still will…until then, educate your children…unfortunately, it’s no longer “When a man and woman love each other they get married…”
I don’t think that her age is necessarily a problem. My sister had a baby at 17. She’s still married to the same man and now has three beautiful little boys. She is very mature and has a great perspective on life and raising these little guys. 17 is different for everyone. 40 is different for everyone. Just because you are a certain age doesn’t mean you can or can’t do or accomplish things. Back in the day at 40 you were preparing to be a grandparent. Now some 40-somethings are becoming parents for the first time. So what? Not that I need to prove my point to anyone really, but see what I’m saying? Sometimes age is just a number. I don’t know Jamie Lynn and I don’t know if she’s mature, responsible, whatever. Who cares? She’s living her life, not us.
Look jamie lynn is a very good person. Shes happy for being a mother, and you crap-talking people should accept that shes great! She made a mistake and shes fixing it. Thats all we can do. We cant just poof our mistake away and never worry about it. If you ask me, jamie lynn is taking this very well and maturily. (i know i spelt maturily wrong. haha) ((can someone take girs friggin comments off?))
This_country_i_fight_4, WELL PUT AND GOD BLESS!
I hope this young girl proves to be a fine little mother. I hope she stays happy.
I hope parents of teens rely on other strategies than dehumanizing people to keep their kids child-free until such time as they are sure that’s what they want out of life. I’m a mother, desperately wanted my little one, but it can be very hard, frustrating work rather often. I wouldn’t trade her back, but parenthood done well is not for sissies.
Anyone who thinks their live would be hindered that badly by a child sounds like they want to go out and party with all the late teens early twenties people who haven’t amount to much. Plenty of people have been young single parents and have gone to college and got wonderful jobs why not find a few and post about them.
Ditto Jessie!
OK lets be fair now this article is clearly over the top. Ok! is glamorizing pregnancy? wtf they support the whole article by using this phrase…
“I love taking care of her. It is so much fun. I just want to hug her and kiss her, and I’m happy all the time.â€
This quote is the feelings that she has for her child and not too mention shes rich I’m sure makes raising a child kinda easier than the avg 17 year old.
And also why are we attacking her anyway I mean she’s caring and responsible enough to actually have the kid instead of doing what many teenage pregos do and have abortions which is murder in my book. Sure I would not want my daughter to have a kid when shes not married but I sure wouldn’t want here to have an abortion just so it wouldn’t change her life style.
Normally I would not pay this article a second look because I could care less about the avg celeb but this one caught my interest because of the silly article title.
First of all…
The only difference between Jamie Lynn Spears and the majority of teenage girls is that she got caught.
Second…
It is irresponsible to make the decision to have premarital sex in the first place and I think it’s hilarious that almost every post on here is bashing Jamie Lynn for taking the adult and responsible action of raising the child she irresonsibly concieved. It would have been the ultimate in irresponsible and selfish behavior had she chosen to abort the child.
Third…
It seems so unbalanced that everyone is still talking about how stupid it is for Jamie Lynn to be saying she’s happy. I’m honestly proud that she is saying that because it shows that she doesn’t care as much about anonymous, selfish, preteen girls and their mother’s as she does about her own daughter and how she would feel later in her life reading that she was a mistake or a life-killer.
Fourth…
Why isn’t anyone upset about the description of the baby in the first paragraph? “No – according to Jamie Lynn Spears, being a constant slave to a screaming little fleshbag that’s stolen the rest of your life and won’t respond to reason or logic is fun.” That seems more upsetting than anything Jamie Lynn has said.
Well, maybe high schools should glorify teaching SEX ED instead of making abstience pacts. I think it is nice that now we have a reminder of what is important to teach to our children.
We are not the same I am a Martian. We do not understand human society and its infatuation of a single being of its species. We believe it is necessary to reproduce many offspring, regardless of their age. Once they are capable of reproducing, which you humans refer to as puberty, we “impregnate” them as you humans would say. Then our species as a whole take responsibility in developing our offspring in a controlled and safe environment to ensure their survival and development into a productive member of our species. We believe it is important to our survival to be stronger as a whole than our rivals and enemies.
Freakin’ hilarious post.
Oh, and MissCris – apparently “if we schooled our kids” didn’t work too well in your case; you don’t even know the meaning of the word “irony”.
They don’t use the word “illegitimate” to describe children of unwed parents anymore. All children are “legitimate” whether their “parents” were married or not.
I can not belive the article. It makes it out like having a kid is fun and games. First off I’m sure this girl has a nanny and she also has a little thing called money. But teenagers are going to read this and think “wow it’s easy and FUN!” when it is far from it. Maybe if this girl was half as responsible as you all are arguing she is then she would have used her 15 minutes of “sell out” fame to call attention the the rising number of teen pregnancies and how wrong it is. A true teen mom has to work 18 hour shifts to make rent. She has to sometimes make the choice eat for a week or keep the power on. And dont forget the great and fun staying up for three days in a row cause the baby has an ear infection and btw you still have to go to work and school. But no dont worry about it you’ll just get a nanny like jamie lynn and everything will be a-ok. *rolls her eyes* grrrrrrrrrrrr
Jesus, please come back soon.
I’m going to do a favor for just about everyone who has left a post here and demonstrate that it is possible to write a comment that does not capitalize entire words or rely on cuss words. First, Jamie Lynn Spears having a baby at her age is not a good example, granted. On the other hand, good parents should teach their kids that their role models are not, in fact, Hollywood stars…or sisters of Hollywood stars. Let’s not place the responsibility for raising our kids on someone else. Second, can’t we all agree that it’s in bad taste to cash in on the birth of your child by selling pictures and, yes, making it seem glamorous to have a child at 17? Sure, JLS can afford to raise that child, but not so for most would-be imitators in the general public. I really feel like we, as a people, have cotinued down the path of least resistance. American culture is all about what makes a buck and “the lowest common denominator”. It’s too bad. I think there was a time when we were concerned with issues more important than a B-list celebrity’s sex life.
He who has not sinned may cast the first stone.
im guessing you’re either perfect…or you are terribly bruised.
and…i teach my children better than to idolize the sister’s of has-been celebrities. they have real role models..such as their father who is fighting overseas right now, their uncle who is a fire fighter, their grandma who raised 5 kids by herself after her husband was killed by a drunk driver.
you worry about little miss spears all you want. if it makes you feel better to blame her poor choices for those your own children make in the future so be it. if it wasn’t her it would be someone else..instead of the person you should be looking to…YOURSELF.
have a lovely day, and try not to let your knickers bunch up too much tomorrow.
