Is anyone as concerned as I am that jaime Lynn Spears has given birth to a little baby girl Maddie Briann??????She is a baby herself and with all the negative attention her family has been receiving, mainly big sis, Britney, this was the last thing the teenage unwed mother should be doing.
I just hope she can be a better mom to her little girl than her sis was to her boys and their mom was to them. But you know what they say the apple doesn;t fall far from the tree.
Any thoughts?

i dont agree that you should judge someone by their parents or their siblings. it seems to me that other than getting preg. at such a young age jaime has a good head on her shoulders. personally i think everyone should leave that family alone they are going through enough without everyone putting in their 2 sence.

i think your also forgetting that lynn also has a son that seems to be doing alright for him self so she didnt screw up its just some kids decided to go against the way they were raised, my sister and i were rasied the same way and she has gone against everything but myself have not. other than jamie gettin preg. there seems to be nothin else that she has done wrong and as far as britney goes there is something she cant help she hs bipolar disorder there is nothin she can do but take ur meds properly and with her life im sure she forgets.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and it isn't about judging someone. It is based upon facts that are presented to us, the general public everyday. If you were a mother had 2 daughters, one in her teens and one just out of her teens, get pregnant, especially after the first one has had such trouble an dproblems, as both an indivisual and a mother, would you as their parent be offering advice through a book to other parent son how to raise your daughters? It is just common sense here. No one is badgering Jamie Lynn, I wish her the best of luck, but with the support system and everything ELSE going on with that family, it will be hard for her to have the support from her family when they are providinh 24 hr care for Britney, waiting for her to have another breakdown or mishap with her children.

I didn't know she had her baby yet. Thanks for the update.
As for being concerned about her being a teen mother...not any more concerned I am for other teen moms. Just because she has had a high profile job does not make her different from any other teenaged unwed mothers in my book. And she CAN be a good mother should she want to be...because I WAS an unwed teenaged mother once myself.

I am not concerned bout her being a teen mother, my concern is with the family's history (especially Britney) and the latest media attention, I do not think it was wise for such a young, bright girl to become pregnant and bring an innocent baby into this family's troubles right now. They should all straighten out their lives and relationships with one another before starting a new one.

I am bothered. O.o
She's very young and could've gone a long way with her career but because she just gave birth, naturally she has to take care of her baby and all that stuff.
Well, let's just hope that Britney and Jaime straighten their lives. :D

I don't understand people like them. They had such a BRIGHT future ahead of them and they just THREW IT ALL AWAY!! I wish God had given me the chances these girls had. I wish they would've been taught better on how to appreciate the things life gives us. It truly is a shame!!

That's been my point, especially since it was not one daughter but two that were so talented an dbright and beautiful that they could have done just about anything with their lives. It is not about being a young unwed mother, that everyone else is taking this so personal, it is abouut they have far more opportunities in life than us, everday people, will ever have or know of, so they had their whole lives ahead of them to be mom's. It is obviously fact that Britney was not emotionally ready to be a mother, these girls haven't had time to grow up themselves being in the spotlight at such a young age, how could they possibly be expected to raise someone else.

I'm not really concerned just because she has a big sister like britney. Her life or a life of a person doesn't depend on some else right? Well it's how people make it right.
I just hope she'll have a good family. She's young and she's talented.

I personally think she will do the best she can being so young. They say a baby cant raise a baby BUT there are people out there who are really good mothers at a young age. Plus i think she wants to show the world that she is different then the rest of her family and will do an awesome job. I have faith in her. If she messes up she messes up but i think she will do alright. She is learning from the way her sister is and the way her mother was and im sure she doesnt want to do the same thing.

I think she will do ok. But we will never know for sure. I just don't think its fair to judge someone to soon. And yes her sister has messed up, but it seems her sister is trying to fix things. People make mistakes. Maybe she has learned from her sister? I guess we will see later down the road.. although we can't believe everything the news or tabloids says...

i think because her family has had so much negative press that she will try extra hard to prove she can be a good mom. she has enough money at her disposal from the show to give that baby the best. despite the way her sister screwed up, i think she has potential to be a good mother. she seems to be taking things one day at a time.

Yeah well I don't believe that. Just because Britney has had problems doesn't mean that Jamie will have problems. When she went back home that showed that she cared a lot about her baby. She wanted to get away from all the press and live comfortably for a while. I applaud her for that. There have been a lot of people that have gotten pregnant as teenagers and have been successful and I hope that Jamie is successful. Who knows maybe Jamie will be giving Britney some tips and helping her out now. They could have playdates will all their kids.

The way you have worded the first part of the discussion makes it sound as if you did not know she was pregnant?
I am not sure as she seemed to be in a steady relationship with her boyfriend and even though not married it did Britney no good by being married so maybe it will(hopefully) work out better for Jamie Lynn! x

That is such a dysfunctional family that I doubt Jaime Lynn will be any better. Maybe she will; she is supposed to be marrying the father of her baby soon. Since he will (hopefully) be in the picture, maybe there's hope for little Maddie Briann.
I have a cousin who became pregnant at 17 and she turned out to be a great mom. But she didn't come from a family so dysfunctional!

I feel bad for them as much as they do it too themselves. The press is hard on people and make alot of poop up. Although I read perezhilton and dont help the situation being famous money wise is fabolous but could you imagine getting followed around and having storied made up about you all the time! Id be beating people up every day!!!But it is sad because a baby is having a baby!! Screw em they got millions! the baby will befine!

Well being a teenage, unwed mother myself, I will admit that it takes a lot to be able to take care of your first child while being a child yourself. From the looks of everything Jaime Lynn has a lot of support from family and friends. And really, being a young mom is wonderful for that fact that, you have the chance to grow up and be extremly close to your kids and I believe that that's a wonderful experience! Plus, I'm pretty sure Jaime learned from Britney's sisters mistakes.

Don't get me wrong, I am by no means knocking unwed or teenage mothers. I am just referring to the simple fact that after having an older sister who has made many mistakes and in the spotlight, you would think that Jaime would have learned from her big sis and aspired to be a better mom, and role model and not make the same mistakes, that once had Jamie Lynn and mom so worried about Britney.
