Why don't you try looking at your own neighborhoods or dare I say...in your churches and your OWN families? She's not the first, and she won't be the last. This is what comes of living in a society where the left hand is in denial of what the right hand is doing!

NO ONE is saying what she's doing is ok. I don't recommend it...but I am perplexed as to why people are overreacting like it's 1957 instead of 2007? Role models should come from FAMILIES and neighbors, NOT celebrities.

Here's another thought. In about a week, much of the world is celebrating the birth of a person whose mother was initially unmarried AND a teenager. Hmmm....

It's the same reason why Clinton and Monica's relationship and Brittany's parenting blunders, made it so big in the news. THEY ARE CELEBRITIES!!! Clinton wasn't the first man in office to cheat on his wife with another woman, Brittany isn't the only young, divorced, un-fit mother in this world, and Jamie Lynn Spears isn't the only 16-year-old girl that has ever gotten pregnant. People just expect more out of them. What's so sad about the news of her pregnancy is that, there are so many young girls that look up to her and seeing her do it makes them think it's okay. Same as with any other celebrity out there. I'm just proud of her that she is chosing to keep the baby. I really hope that she becomes a great mom to her child and takes this as a lesson learned.

Oh, she's definitely not. She's just the funniest 16-year-old to get PG because her sister's acting like such trailer trash right now, so it sort of completes the family portrait, y'know?
BTW, the young girl who starred in The Nativity Story last year was actually 16 and pregnant as well, so Jamie Lynn's not even the first 16-year-old celebrity to get pregnant. Oh, and we can't forget Salonge Knowles, Beyonce's younger sister, who I think was 17 when she had her baby.

If there a lot more 16 year old getting pregnant, then maybe we should look at our sex ed classes in America. Now that there is someone to bring it out in the media, maybe we should draw attention on where the kids are getting (or lack of) sexual education. Why are so many teenagers getting pregnant??
Is it the lack of parental guidance or the lack of being taught in our schools?

She is surpose to be a role model and set an example.
No one held a gun up to her head and said she had to be a TV star and star on Zoey 101.
Certain jobs require a high moral ethnic like teachers and policemen.
She is not the only 16 year old pregnant. She is one of the very few celebs to do something that ignorant.

I guess because she is in the public eye, even if it is mostly in America. It's not like she's trying to hide her shame or herself, she's on the front cover of OK! USA with a huge 'I'm Pregnant' headline. She's making money off what many think is the worst thing she could possibly do, but she seems content in covering newsstands with her 'feel sorry for me' face.

I know people are acting as if she is the only 16 year old to get pregnant. There are girls that are 13 and 14 that get pregnant. This is getting so old now, people are just becoming obsessed with her and her pregnancy. Too many questions on here are about it now.

Let's say your daughter watched and adores Zoey on Nick.
Zoey is Jami Lynn. She is a ROLE MODEL.
Now, if you want your daughter going around and having unprotected sex, then fine.
I sure as hell do not want mine to.

It's just unusual, that's all. And plus, it's hysterical that she just happens to be Britney's sister. At least Britney didn't get pregnant when she was sixteen!
