Is This Enough???

Nickelodeon is considering doing a special about teen pregnancy.

That's great and all, but it's also an important discussion parents should be having with their kids. Obviously Lynne Spears didn't have that discussion with her daughter.

Safe sex is also something kids should be learning in school.

A special on Nickelodeon is not going to make much of a difference, but canceling Zooey 101 and firing Jamie Lynn will send a strong message.

What do U think???

I think that would be an effective positive move. If not, I think it just shows support on Nick's part.

FIRST!**!*!*!

I think she's doing the right thing by admitting to it and taking responsibility, so punishing her probably isn't the answer. However, the pregnancy special is a good idea.

You think safe sex needs to be taught in schools, come on! teenagers don't listen to that bullshit and they take what they learn from the tv and music to teach them about life. Teenagers having babies HAPPEN, doesn't mean the parent were less of one. Lynne is doing the right thing by standing behind her daughter and supporting her. There is nothing they can do now, all that can happen is being supportive, its a life thats happening…

The show is already done filming and Jamie Lynn is already paid. The shows 4th and final season starts in February. Jamie Lynn won't be hurt if they cancel the show..just Nicklodean and they aren't the ones that got pregnant.
LExx says – reply to this

Hell yeah she cant do that shit and think that it will all be ok. You are 16 and pregnant and little girls look up to you. Come on now, That is like Miley Cyrus being pregnant SHe is freakin Hannah Montanna.

I'm not sure firing Jamie Lynn is the best way to handle this situation. She made a huge mistake, but a lot of it is her parents fault.

no they shouldn't fire her. what she does in her person life is her business.

you can give all the "talks" you want to give…if a teen is going to have unprotected sex, they have already made that decision weather you talked to them or not….sorry but its the truth.

I dont know why everyones having a HEART ATTACK about her getting pregnant at 16 MANY GIRLS DO IT and they all deal with the position they're in and it makes them better people!! Leave the poor girl alone

First…. I think they need to fucking cancel that show. WHORE BAG

This is the 1st 1st for me.
NerdGirl says – reply to this

I think Lynne probably talked to both her daughters, kids make their own decisions no matter what parents say. I also think that Jamie Lynn should be able to keep her job. Parenting is a tough job, the hardest in the world and she is about to learn that… one who does not have children should not be judging other parents. The special is a great idea.
Erica Eads says – reply to this

41

You think she should be fired for having premarital sex? Are you a virgin? I'm not, I don't think I should be fired.
scott says – reply to this

42

OH MY GOD, nooo way a 16 yr old got pregnant, why that has Never happened in the history of mankind? This is so insane, why should she get fired for being pregnant? 16 yr olds have sex, and some ppl dont believe in abortion, thats all there is to it, its not that big of a deal, leave this girl alone, WHO FUCKING CARES, I'd rather see a 16 yr old with millions of dollars get pregnant than some crack whore
Sglove7 says – reply to this

43

The girl made a mistake, however, its a mistake that could be used to bring awareness to the public (particularly young people) who are not recieving the education that they clearly need on sex and more importantly safe sex. Abstinence is no longer a realistic ideal to teach kids within the schools because that is obviously not happening. Hopefully Jamie Lynn will be able to show teens that sex ALWAYS needs to be practised safely.
Lets hope this discourages kids from having un-protected sex.
jane smith says – reply to this

44

NO, pregnant women should NOT be fired from their jobs - no matter what job they have - because they are pregnant.

jesus, if she had an abortion, you people would hang her for that. she's having it, so you get her for that instead.

stop judging women - and teenage girls - for their decisions!!

who is talking about whether the baby's father should be fired, kicked out of school, whatever? NO ONE! that's sexism in the US for you.

don't buy into it perez.

It's NOT Nickelodeon's job to talk about teen pregnancy….It's THE PARENTS RESPONSIBILITY to teach their kids about sex and how to prtoect themselves from STD's and dealing with the life changing affects of becoming a parent when they're still CHILDREN!!!!!!!!! But then again, Nickelodeon is looking for more money from advertisers and using Jamie Lynn DUMASS is a smart business move….
mark says – reply to this

48

OH PLEASE PEREZ. WHAT 16 YEAR OLDS AREN'T HAVING SEX? MOST OF THE COUNTRY'S TEENS ARE HAVING SEX. SHE JUST DIDN'T USE PROTECTION.. WHICH WAS STUPID.. BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE HER A SLUT OR A BAD PERSON. DON'T BE MAD BECAUSE NO ONE WANTED TO PUT IT IN YOU WHEN YOU WERE 16.
Erika says – reply to this

I think they shouldn fire Jaimie Lynn because alot of girls say she is their role model, and yeah…dont see much of a good role model here…USE BIRTH CONTROL!!!!
LExx says – reply to this

Hell yeah Fire her, Come on now, THis is like HAnnah Montanna being pregnant. Not something a child star taht is a role model should do.

Sara says – reply to this

53

I agree that these issues should be addressed by parents, but obviously parents aren't doing their jobs. I do think the show should be canceled only because I think that this the only way people will take notice. On the other hand I commend her for choosing to have the baby, but maybe she should give it up for adoption. I don't understand why more people don't do that. She does seem to be owning up to her responsibility. How she chooses to handle this situation will have a great impact on young adults because they look up to her. It takes a much bigger person to take responsibility.
iheartperez says – reply to this

54

They definitely need to fire her. She's no kind of role model to the tweens who watch her show.
Starla says – reply to this

55

She's a worthless skank, just like her older sister. She should be fired and blackballed. I have a kid that loves that show….and this little bitch just totally opened up a can of worms, that now I, as a parent, have to explain to a 6 year old. She should have kept her fucking mouth shut and got an abortion. Seriously, she gonna get "responsible"….yeah right. Lynne is gonna wind up raising that little bastard. If she's "responsible" enough to be fucking at the age of 16, then she should have been "responsible" enough to get on the pill. But then again….what kind of mother allows their 13 year old to have a relationship with a 16 year old…wasn't that when they met?

This whole SPEARS clan needs to fall off the face of this earth. They are embarasing and like a fuckin broken record…

fire her ass. thats the best message they could send. if they dont fire her, they're basically telling all teen girls to get pregnant, cause it'll be fine. wth is wrong with hollywood?? her mom's a huge failure! her and her sister are trainwrecks!

Parents need to teach their children - not schools. Obviously Lynne Spears did not bother to teach either of her daughters anything! I totally agree that Jamie Lynn should be fired from Zoey 101. She is definitely not anyone I would want my kids watching.

they cant fire her for her pregnancy its illegal. if they do she can and will sue nickeldeon. as for a pregnancy special i dont think thats enough, they should do something to incorporate her pregnancy on zoey 101, or scrap the show and have her do some sort of reality show. all i know nickelodeon is fuked either way.

Bullshit! says – reply to this

73

This is insane - so they'll do a special and young girls will see pregnancy as some "trendy' thing that's no big deal.. look at all the unwed mothers in hollywood today… Hallie, Nicole, Jessica Alba, etc, etc and now a 16 year old child!!! What kind of message would this send?!
PARENTS WAKE UP! If nickelodeon runs this special mothers should boycott. We should NOT welcome Jayme LYnn's TERRBILE DECISION with open arms and make her feel better..

STOP CODDLING THESE IDIOTS!! SHE FUCKED UP! Its time she got FIRED and learned the hard lesson that every other girl in america learns. Having a baby as a teenager ruins your life as you know it, it doesnt earn you fame and a million dollar photo shoot and a special on TV.

WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

Regardless of how many lectures or talk a parent can give a son or daughter, kids will do whatever they want these days. So, is it really the parents fault, if they sincerely tried to be a good parent?

i think jamie lynn should be fired because she is nota good role model for 13 yr old … but i do think she is doing the right thing by keeping her baby….. hopefully she raises it right not like her big sis UNFITNEY!

Cancel the show. Most parents will be having the discussion necessary with their children. But pregnancy is contacious among the impressionable young.
KiKi NYC says – reply to this

87

Is that really the way to "send the message?" Should they ground her too? Don't kid yourself that there haven't been studio execs in the past demanding that their properties get abortions if they became pregnant at unfortunate moments. They're only trying to make their investment (a risky one from the get-go, undoubtedly) remain viable after investing so much in the Zoey franchise.

Chelsea says – reply to this

I dont think kids are going to look at Jamie Lynn Spears and think "oh Zoey 101 is pregnant then I'm going to get pregnant too". Give them a little credit. but I do think that airing a segment about preventing pregnancy could help I guess.
Britney Who? says – reply to this

Jamie Lynn Who???

perez leave the poor girl alone. nothing bugs me more than when men talk down to young girls when they get pregnant. HER BOYFRIEND MADE THE MISTAKE TOO, and no one's beating him down. perez, you are atleast somewhat of a man. not a woman. you will never know what this poor kid is going through, so stop passing such harsh and ill-supported judgment.

Just cause parents talk about safe sex w/their kids doesn't mean they're not going to do it. I feel bad for the Mom in this case…if they weren't famous some of their drama wouldn't even be a big deal.

Accidents happens ! She shouldn't be punished for that. If she can make positive stuff out of it, why not ??

FOr someone who always wants people to come out of the closet, I don't find you really open minded right now. You sound more like Bush than anything.

She doesn't have a disease or something. Why not support her in her choice instead of being a bitch about it.
