| Your 11-year-old daughter is showing some smarts. I hope the majority of kids come to the same conclusion. This is just so wrong. She's end up being a Brittany.

| I was really shocked at her bringing it up to me and I was standing there talking to her step dad and mom and they looked surprised too. I was really proud to hear that from her with out prodding. My 8yr said she doesnt like the show any way so she doesnt watch it. |

| Do any of you read the "birth announcements" in the Globe each week? Look how many "unweds" are listed in there. In my day, this was considered VERY BAD, and it was definitely not printed in the paper or bragged about by parents and grandparents. Just another example of the loss of morals by present day society. |

| Yeah MIT, and the young woman was often exiled to a distant relative.

| Being unwed and not married doesn't carry the stigma it did, but that's not the issue I'm seeing here. I'm seeing that we have a television "star" that's young and has decided to glorify her situation. Unmarried mothers don't bother me too much - most of them have chosen to be unmarried and mothers. This one bothers me - she's just too young and is displaying poor common sense to her audience - young teens.

| I haven't been keeping up with the news lately so I was wondering if this was a confirmed pregnancy. I know she announced it on a talk show but didn't know if there was more news about it. I'm just wondering because it wouldn't be unlike a celebrity to pull some sort of publicity stunt like this, especially coming from the Spears family. How many things has ol' Brit done lately to grab the spotlight (shaved head, rehab, pantiless partying w/Paris, dramatic reconcile with mommie, etc). It seems pretty coincidental that the pregnancy issue popped up. "Hey everyone.....ummmmm....I'm pregnant, pay attention to me!" Of course she can always turn around after the shock value wears off then say she had a miscarriage to bring on a wave of condolences and more media coverage. |

| wait isnt it illigal? Isnt the sex age 17? Like a 16 year old cant have sex w/ sombody 17+... but a 16 year old can do it with a 16 year old? |

| Good question. There is such a variety of state statutes covering sex offenses that vary from state to state that I think prosecutors are often scratching their heads trying to sort it out. The possibilities are endless....he's 19, she's 16, did they have sex in California but conceived in another state, which state law applies, should the 16 be considered a ward of the state if living with a 19 year old and unmarried? Definately a headache. |
