Slog - Comments on Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father... http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/12/every_child_deserves_a_mother_and_a_fath_28 ...Jamie Lynn Spears edition: Britney Spears' younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears has announced in OK! Magazine that she is pregnant. Meanwhile her mom Lynne Spears' book on Christian parenting, due in Spring 2008, has been indefinitely delayed. Us Weekly reports Jamie Lynn's father - Lynne's ex-husband Jamie - is "furious" that mother and daughter sold their story to OK! and "devastated" at the news that his youngest child is pregnant. Jamie Lynn supposedly got a $1 Million back-end deal for the interview. Uh... Mrs. Spears? Wouldn't your divorce and your daughter's divorce, drug use, and spectacularly bad parenting disqualify you...

Now, a source at the Enquirer has leaked us the letter Jamie Lynn's lawyers sent them at the time.

It's priceless!

It reads:

“Ms. Spears is a devout Christian with a spotless reputation, who lives in accordance with the highest moral and ethical standards in accordance with her faith.

There is no “rumor” concerning Ms. Spears’ (non-existent) pregnancy, except perhaps for the baseless “rumor” just now being created by the National Enquirer.

Ms. Spears is not pregnant. It is pathetic for the National Enquirer to attempt to create a wholly baseless “rumor” that Ms. Spears is pregnant, so it can run a malicious story and false story which would be emotionally devastating to a morally upright 16 year old girl.”

The mother is a pimp and her daughters are her whores!

This is the best Every Child deserves a mother and father post ever on slog!

I figure most of the other people you write about are burnt on drugs and have no brain waves left so they do hideous things.
This Women is just pure evil and some brain dead Christian book distributor buys her book.
I would honestly love to slap her upside the head and pull her hair.
It disgusts me that she let her sixteen year old daughter announce in a teen magazine to the world she is pregnant! IT WAS ALL FOR MONEY.

Just because you are divorced doesn't meam you still can't be a good Christian Parent.

2. If she would have taken the "back-end" deal to begin with she wouldn't be pregnant.

Wow, making fun of teenagers is like eating Chinese food while drunk. It seems like a good idea at the time, but afterward you just feel unclean.

Probably not, as celebrity gossip is a crippling addiction that one should best avoid, but as an addict I'd like to say that that article was the most anti-choice piece of shit masquerading as real journalism that I have ever read in my life.

The interviewer goes on about how "brave" Jamie Lynn is to have made the decision to keep the baby. I'm not really sure that much is brave about 16 year olds having kids. I think actually that qualifies as stupid.
