Jamie Lynn Spears agrees to hand baby to her 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. The 16 year-old 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. 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.”

Is she mad, her mum screwed up her big sis and her and she wants her mum to raise her child, she is insane. I know it’s not good being a teenage mum but other people do it, so why can’t she. Jamie Lynn chose to have sex at 16 and now she doesn’t want to have to look after the child..or rather is pressured into giving it to her mum to raise. Not good
Um?? What?! Her mother should teach her some responsibility and MAKE her be responsible for the consequences of her poor choices. Her mother doesn’t want her to miss out on being a teenager but maybe if her mother taught her to take responsibility for her actions she will not turn out as screwed up as Britney. Jamie Lynn has many more resources at her disposal than other pregnant girls her age, and they work very hard to take care of their own children. She certainly can take of that child and the child would never suffer by any means. Jamie Lynn may miss out on a lot but when you make “grown up” decisions that is what happens.
Sad. Sad. Sad. As long as she’s a part of it it’ll be fine, I hope……BUT come on….she’s better wit you.
HEY JAIME, WAT IS THE CHILDS NAME? I LOVE ZOEY 101 !!!!!!!! WILL THE BABY EFFECT THE SHOW
I dont think that she is going to give the baby to her mom simply because i think the girl knows that her mom didnt do a good job raising her or her siblings.
hey jamie,
just getting to the point…….i know what position u are in and i know how you feel only cus i have been there b4 and i made my decisions as well as you have. i dont think that you should give up your child to any one. i am on your side but if i could do it then i know that you can do it. i got pregnant when i was only 15 and i would not give up my daughter for anything in the world. i was young and in school and still am…..i was shocked and really scared at first but i told myself that i already knew the consequences of my actions when i decided to have sex at such a young age. my mom supported my decision on keeping the child but i took care of her. i went to school and worked a couple of days out of the week and so did her father. he is also still in school. my mom would watch her while we worked but the rest is up to us. we both graduate this year. if we can raise a child and graduate HS and work then i know that you can do the same. now i never said that it was easy because it’s not…..but it was a choice we made when we decided to do things we did.
LOVE ALWAYS,
~some 1 who knows how you feel~
