Members Cheap21 Posted January 24, 2008 Members Share Posted January 24, 2008 http://www.showbizspy.com/2008/01/23/jamie...over-to-mother/ Pregnant Jamie Lynn Spears has agreed to give up her baby. The teen sister of pop wreck Britney Spears will hand over the baby to her mum Lynne as soon as it is born so she can concentrate on her career. Lynne will then raise the child at the family’s home in rural Kentwood, Louisiana, away from Hollywood. Jamie Lynn, just 16, made the heartbreaking decision after several long heart to heart talks with her mum. An insider told US magazine Star: “After several weeks of personal soul searching and talks and discussions with her mum Jamie Lynn reluctantly agreed that giving up the baby is the right thing to do. “Lynne says Jamie doesn’t understand the life long consequences of having a baby. “She still wants her daughter to be able to be a teenager, go to parties, hang out with friends and have a career. “So she’ll take the front seat of caring for the baby and take the pressure off her daughter.” Since her shocking pregnancy hit headlines around the world, Jamie Lynn has been under pressure. Even the paternity of her baby has been questioned - her family insist her boyfriend 18 year-old Casey Aldridge is the father but other insiders close to the Spears claim the dad is a much older executive on her TV show. One insider told Star: “Jamie Lynn has been working on her show Zoey 101 since she was 13. “In Hollywood, little girls grow up fast and she’s no exception. With everything that has gone on in her family, she needed someone to look up to. “But the man she found seems to have completely taken advantage of her.” Other reports in the US claim that boyfriend Casey has asked for a DNA test to prove that he is the father. Since the news broke Jamie Lynn has left Los Angeles and headed back to Kentwood where she has been attending high school equivalency and parenting classes. She has been staying at the family’s $3 million estate but once the baby is born she is planning to return to LA. But despite the news she is pregnant at 16, residents in the tiny town, whose population is just 2,200, are supporting the teen. Kentwood local Pam Wright said: “How many 16 year-old girls get pregnant every week? “It doesn’t mean that she’s a bad person. I don’t think this will end her career, life will go on.” And that is exactly the same attitude mum Lynne is taking with her daughter. The insider added: “She wants Jamie Lynn to continue her show business career after the baby is born and Jamie Lynn also realizes she wants to enjoy her teenage years without the responsibilities of caring for a baby. “Lynne is convinced that having a baby on her hip will not help Jamie Lynn’s future in the business and she’s expecting her daughter to pick up where she left off as soon as the baby is born.” According to the source, Jamie Lynn’s managers also agree and have advised Lynne that the best thing to do is have Jamie photographed with the baby as soon as it is born, sell the pictures and then take over raising her own grandchild. The source told Star: “Lynne is completely on board with the plan. “She always wanted Britney to raise her babies in Louisiana. She couldn’t have that but now she’s going to raise Jamie Lynn’s baby at her home in Kentwood. “Jamie Lynn will be back at work and trying to remind people of her talent and not that she is an unwed teenage mother. But a rep for Jamie Lynn denies that the pregnant teen is giving total control to her mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted January 24, 2008 Members Share Posted January 24, 2008 exactly. all this is is a woman going back to work after having a baby, but isntead of hiring a nanny she has her mother. i really doubt shes sighning away rights, leaving the baby with its grandmother, and heading back to Hollywood. tabloads are great at [!@#$%^&*] like this.

Members daysfan Posted January 24, 2008 Members Share Posted January 24, 2008 In some ways, maybe this is a better decision. While Lynne seems to not be the best mother in the world, that baby doesn't need to be surrounded by the chaos in LA like Brit's babies have. And its good Jamie is not giving ALL the control to Lynne, because if she is still going to spend time with the baby and visit often and put as much effort as she can in, then this might be a good decision.

Members Cheap21 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2008 this one was tame. Another headline said that Jamie Lynn gets rid of her baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DevotedToAMC Posted January 25, 2008 Members Share Posted January 25, 2008 I thought when I saw the title that Jamie was going to give it up for adoption....however, this plan sounds like it will work out well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Actor87 Posted January 25, 2008 Members Share Posted January 25, 2008 This sounds like hogwash to me. It also doesn't look right that even Jamie Lynne's rep says that she's not giving total control to her mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
