Can't even watch Nickelodeon

Those of you who have young girls know all about Zoey 101. Those of you who can't help but watch a train wreck happen know all about the Spears Clan. For those who fit both, you just knew this would end pretty.
Another Spears baby is reportedly on the way — and it's not Britney's. Jamie Lynn Spears, the 16-year-old "Zoey 101" star and sister of Britney, tells OK! magazine that she's pregnant and that the father is her longtime boyfriend, Casey Aldridge.

"It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected," she says. "I was in complete and total shock and so was he."
And the winner father? Aldridge is 18. Yep, 18. Check out his page on bebo.com. I would feel a little less sad if he was 16.
Spears broke the news to her mother, Lynne, just before Thanksgiving, the magazine says.

"She was very upset because it wasn't what she expected at all," Spears says. "A week after, she had time to cope with it and became very supportive."

Lynne Spears, already grandmother to Britney's young sons, says: "I didn't believe it because Jamie Lynn's always been so conscientious. She's never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby."

She says her actress daughter, the telegenic heroine of the popular Nickelodeon series "Zoey 101," has known Aldridge for years and began dating him in high school.

Jamie Lynn plans to raise the baby in her home state of Louisiana — "so it can have a normal family life."
Goodness knows you didn't have one Jamie. See if you can raise the bar - but you have one heck of a hill to climb.

I think it was Patrick Swayze who once said that if you did not watch out, Hollywood would do anything in its power to turn you into a whore. That is a little strong for Jamie, but when you take her immediate family and roll it up in Hollywood - it was just a matter of time.

I will give her kudos for bringing a life into the world - but a 16 yr old who looks 11 getting pregnant by a 18yr old acting like he is 15 is just something I don't feel like explaining to my pre-teen girls right now.....and why isn't Casey in jail?

Oh, that is right - can't judge. No, not at all. I don't think Jamie's mom has any other daughters to sacrifice to the Hollywood gods - so at least we have peace.

BTW, when you look at what Hollywood spits out of what used to be the Spears and Olson girls - why oh why would any father want to encourage their daughters to be in the acting field? Ever?

Jamie, go back to Louisiana and have Gary Kaltbaum manage your money. Lock out your parents. Find a good church and get an education. Also, give Danica McKellar a call. You need new friends that know where you come from - and aren't after your money, fame, or underage pants.
