Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant and 16 years old.  I was so shocked although I guess I should not have been.  I know these girls where born and raised in Louisiana but come on what happened to trying to break the stereotypes?  I was raised in Louisiana too and when I graduated there were girls that were pregnant and girls that had already had babies but that was how many years ago?  According to Jamie Lynn the father is her “long time” boyfriend.  I have an issue with this too because I have a 17 year old and their idea of a long term boyfriend is making it to their 1 month anniversary. 

Where is the mother of these girls?  She has one child that is a walking disaster with two children she is losing custody of and now the other one is pregnant.  As far as Jamie Lynn’s TV show on Nickelodeon, I would be very surprised if they kept her show going.  I am waiting for all of the parents to rise against this.  What type of a role model is she for our little girls?  I think my heart aches the most for the simple fact that it appears she did not have anyone to turn to when she found out she was pregnant.  She told only her best friend, NOT her mother.  That in itself tells me something about the relationship or the lack there of, with her mother.  We are supposed to be there for our daughters and obviously she is not there for her girls.  I just makes me so sad for Jamie Lynn and Brittney.
