The Spears Family

I was reading the news online last night as I usually do after putting my son to bed and I saw the announcement from Britney Spears' 16 year old sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, telling everyone she is pregnant. Then I saw the article stating that Lynne Spears parenting book has been called off. Is anyone really surprised by that? I mean seriously her 16 year old daughter is pregnant and acting like it is not a big deal? In this day and age with the resources and knowledge we have why in the heck does a 16 year old get pregnant? Yes we would all love for our teenagers to not engage in sexual conduct so young but we also know that it does happen. How in the heck do you justify not educating your children about safe sex and contraceptives? This is absurd!

I have to comment on these stories because I just think the whole Spears family is absurd. I don't have anything personal against any of them but honestly I don't think any one of them takes being a parent seriously. Britney is a joke. Lynne writing a book about parenting is a joke and the fact that her 16 year old daughter is now pregnant just really sums up the whole family don't you think?
