Wow, I guess she is trying to out trailer trash ol' big sis huh?

I guess the pic below need to be updated now.

[lharles]

Ah, yes.  There's much to be said for THAT gene pool.  I can only hope the sarcasm came across in my last sentence. 

Anyway, maybe the younger one will feel a bit motivated as a parent than the older seems to be...

[Neilyboy]

wasn't their mother about to release a book or something about parenting and now the publisher put the book on indefinite hold. lol..

...and my wife wonders why I say absolutely HELL NO to even considering ever putting our daughter in acting/modeling.

I have to wonder if it will even be possible to keep my little girl a "little girl". Its damn sad that parents are lucky to keep thier kids "young" until even 10.

Can you imagine all the 10 year old girls that watch Spears' Disney show? Their "hero" is having sex and getting pregnant.

I'm still waiting for the Hannah Montana sex scandal to break. It should be any time now. I bet media outlets already have a graphic prepared for it just in case.

What's weird is YOUR statement should be a 'Ha-Ha!' type...but I'm certain that you're right.  They stockpile that crap like nobody knows.  Pre-staged, packaged tributes to not yet dead celebrities and politicos, scandals waiting to happen or under wraps for some reason or another.  Good times.

You know, I would never let my 8 yo daughter watch Zoey because I knew something like this would happen.  I do let her watch Hannah and I'm praying that something like this doesn't happen to her.

[Ed_McCarron]

I don't foresee this.  Her dad doesn't seem like the type to let it.

But don't tell my heart....

For the love of God... please don't finish that line!   It's taken YEARS to get it out of my head!!!

You know why this is extra evil? because you know deep within yourself that you CANNOT resist hitting the play button.

[MikeQ]

I haven't heard a word about the boyfriend being brought up on charges.  She's 16, he's 19.  These 2 should be made an example.  Jamie should lose her career and the dude should go to jail for a couple years.

[Ed_McCarron]

She's 16, he's 19. 

Theres those top-notch parenting skills in play.

Lets LET our daughter break the law... Shes in looooove...

[Jouster]

Actually I don't believe there's any violation there.  You are allowed like 4 years or something leeway.  Basically allows a senior to date a freshman without penalty.

I could be wrong but that's what I've always known.  Still doesn't make it smart...but I don't recall accusations of ample brains in the Spears family being plastered in the news.

Dating is not sex and in some states it only 2 years.  I'm pretty sure I've seen dudes on Dateline NBC's "To Catch a Predator" who were in the same age range and got busted.

It varies state by state. Just ask Genarlo Wilson.

IIRC, in my state, the rule is 3 years difference.

[ChadTower]

They may be total trash but they have some fine looking genes in that family.  Keep knocking that chick up and take the babies for adoption.

[mpm32]

If you like the thick neck, thick thigh and short leg gene.   

[ChadTower]

Take another look at that picture in the first post.  Tell me that 14 year old wouldn't become a fine looking 18 year old with decent parenting.

[mr.Curmudgeon]

Yeah! for Abstinence Only education! Can't waiting for that parenting 101 book from this girl's mother. I hear she's been working on it since right before Britney got knocked up by KFed. (even though she claimed she was going to be a virgin until marriage.)

She's probably a great parent. Dring the writing of the book she just didn't have the time to do any parenting and that's when it must have gone wrong 

[shardian]

She can still release the book. The Publisher just has to add a "not" between "how" and "to".

[mr.Curmudgeon]

Let me clarify as well, I do not think the Spear's mom is a "bad parent" because her daughter got pregnant. Plenty of teens, brought up by good parents are wont to do what teens do, ie: get their freak on.

I do think, however, that any parent who buys into this abstinence only bs is a bad parent because they refuse to acknowledge the risks their teens face with unprotected sex. It's like believing that driver's ed will cause the kid to get into more accidents.

Getting pregnant doesn't make her mom a bad parent but the 5000 other pieces of evidence of bad parenting make her a bad parent.

[mr.Curmudgeon]

Well, that too. I was speaking strictly in the context of this story though.

[ChadTower]

Fair enough.  You can take the girls out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park out of the girls.

Well one man's trash is another man's treasure.   lol  I kill myself.


I don't think I'd ever post her or her sister to the cake thread.

what does this mean shardian, you can only be three years older than your partner?

[ChadTower]

If your partner or you are underage.  Once you're both of age it's all good.

[polaris]

ahh, right i see. as a weird defence are there any states in the us where its ok to get knocked up at sixteen and would claiming you did it in that state negate other state laws?

[ChadTower]

There are even stronger laws against transporting minors across state lines for sexual purposes.  That turns your state crime into a federal crime.

[polaris]

thats pretty whacky isnt it, suppose thats what comes from having individual state laws. having sex in one state would be legal but getting there would be the crime. you crazy americans

[Ed_McCarron]

---steaming pile of meadow muffin---, I took a 17 year old cross country for a robotics competition I was attending.  I wouldn't even contemplate it without his mother getting paperwork notarized that I had the legal right to do so, and was authorized to OK medical attention for him if needed.

[ChadTower]

In a lot of those states wouldn't 17 be an adult?  You'd be free and clear to bang him all you wanted.

[mpm32]

Damn, I just spit out my soda.  LOL

[ChadTower]

I dunno.. there's got to be -some- reason that this law exists, and maybe people really did drive to other states...?  Seems like a lot of work to me.  :-P

There are state-line transport laws for a LOT of things like this... it is to prevent the people in a neighboring state from coming over, as you say, but also to prevent jurisdiction conflicts when someone is committing a type of crime in multiple states (like trafficking).

Damn it Chad!

Me bursting out in laughter while at work ain't cool, knock it off.

Absolutely.  We should just ruin any teenagers lives whenever this happens.  

[Dartful Dodger]

He's an adult, she isn't.

Yes, we should ruin the lives of all pedophiles.

I agree.  Start making people responsible for their own stupidity.
