interview with OK! Magazine, Jamie Lynn and her mother (Lynne) set down to discuss the career-ruining mess Jamie Lynn has gotten herself into…
Jamie Lynn Spears, younger sister of Britney Spears, is pregnant with the child of her boyfriend of over two years, Casey Aldridge. And in an exclusive interview in the new issue of OK! , the teenager opens up about her pregnancy, which just passed the 12-week mark, and which she says came as a total shock to her.
“I can’t say it was something I was planning to do right now,” the 16-year-old confesses to OK!. “But now that it’s in my lap and that it’s something I have to deal with, I’m looking forward to being the best mom I can be.”
As for her decision to keep the baby, the Zoey 101 star explains, “I think my whole life I would have to live with knowing what I did or what I didn’t do.” And Jamie Lynn, who intends on raising the child in her home state of Louisiana, also tells OK! that she intends to face up to the life-changing choice she’s made. “I’m the one who has to live with it for the rest of my life,” she says. “I put myself in this position, an adult position, so I have to act like an adult and take responsibility for what I did.”
Of course, Jamie Lynn won’t be going it alone. Her mother, Lynne Spears, says to OK!, “I want her to ask me to help as much as she wants me to because I will be there for her. I want to be a big part, if she wants me to be.”
As for any message Jamie Lynn’s fans might take away from this news, the young actress is realistic. “I definitely don’t think it’s something you should do; it’s better to wait. But I can’t be judgmental because it’s a position I put myself in.”

I knew that she would end up like her sister now all she needs is to shave her head………and her b.f could get fined because jamie is under age…….i hope they are not gonna just let him pass just like to all the other celebs………like lindsay lohan ……usually for what she did a NORMAL person would go to jail for a long time……..but she didnt just because she is famous…….i hate it when they give them the……..”CELEB TREATMENT” <—-that is unfair to us…….they should treat them like us!!

I am not surprised at all. As we may recall, Britney Spears has been drunk, gotten knocked up, and did drugs. Jamie Lynn Spears has no choice but to look up to her older sister. Its not her fault, all the way yes she made a choice to get pregnant, but it is also Casey’s fault. he took advantage of her and that’s not good. Honestly, I think that Jamie should carry herself better, and Britney should have set a better example.

i think that you where the one who had sex with a guy that is 2 years older than you and you are not poor you should keep the baby you look like you would be a great mom hopefully better than your mom for letting you live with him a 2 year older sex man but i will be sad about Zoey 101 it was one of my favs and jamie your boy fiend is cute …….!!!!!!!!!! best wishes

I think that jamie lynn spears pregancy is a little okay and a little not okay. She ruined her life by becoming pregant shes to young. Jamie lynn spears on zoey 101 she was my role model. SHe taught me stuff on her show, but wat she did with her boyfriend is shes just ruined her life. She should have waited till like 20 or 19 wat ever. When the baby is in her stomach how about zoey 101 i luv that show its the best show ever. This is none of my buisness but now theres no more zoey 101. So yeah bye

Honestly people shut up, you cant hate some one becuase they are havinga baby, you cant also blame this happening on her sister, she can make her own desicsions, and unfortunetally, this hasnt been the best choice she could have made, but stop hating on her, she 16, she doesnt need ppl saying to her your like you sister, cuase she is no where near liek her sister.
Im not saying that is right that she is having a baby at the age of 16, but honestly becuase she is a star you are hating on her more then you would then any other 16 year old girl that is pregnant, serisouly.
But whatever.

I think that is so stupid that her mother didn’t have the “talk” and now she’s expecting!!! serisouly!
Sarah // December 30, 2007 at 2:34 pm
And now how is she going to be a role model ? ? ? Because,younger kids watch her show. And they look up to her! How is she going to juggle being a mom and a actress ? ? ?
woww. // December 30, 2007 at 3:59 pm
it’s actually not statutory rape for him to sleep with her, there’s a law that a minor and adult within 2 years are considered consentory. but i know so many little kids who watch zoey 101 and she is setting a bad example for all of them. there’s probablysomething wrong with her mom. one bad kid, there’s a mistake..but 2 bad kids….somethings wrong with the parent.

Alright, alright.
So Jamie Lynn Spears isn’t the brightest person alive, as her sister Britney Spears. But what can you say…I mean, seriously, some role model she has, though that is no excuse. She shouldn’t be taking after her sister – at a younger age.
Not to mention Jamie got pregnant not with her boyfriend of two years. For that matter it can be anyone since she is a two faced biatch. Am I right, or am I right? Anyways. Apparently by someone who can be accused of raping her.
Rape my ass, but whatever.
Let the chaos continue I suppose in the Spears family. Always looks like they are looking for trouble in my opinion. And Attention from the media’s for whatever they can get their hands on.

I think she is stupid for doing that . she should be finned cause she is to young. She has a good show going and now everybody wants to know if zoey 101 will still come on and they want to now if zoey will come back and tell cahse how she fills so i think yall should air the 4 season if it is the last seasn cause jamie had to be so stupid and end up like her sister except the balled head. get a life jamie
