[NEWS] Spears family screwed?

Well, that's somewhat true. It's legally banned, even though I won't be getting on a discussion about it, since it's a controversial/polictical topic to be discussed on AHS.

there is no end once it begins. a poor woman of 17 has every right to have as many children as she wishes as does a woman of 30. I understand the problems that come with this, mainly irresponsibility on the poor woman's fault. but I also see the problems that come with DICTATING MORALITY

Well said. It's really weird how people make this dicotomy of good x evil. As if the world is made of "role models" vs "corrupted/dirty people". Every human being has their share of negative points. There's nobody perfect, but unfortunately, many people seem to believe Disney's fairy tale role model princesses do exist, and they strongly believe on that, and what's worse, want to mold and shape people to be exactly like those.

Well you do have a good point...no one is perfect. But it still doesn't really make it right. I'm not saying Jamie is a bad person or anything but is she really setting a good example for the kids who admire her? Then again I highly doubt they'd turn around and do the same thing...but I think it's the parents who will be most offended. But you know, there is such thing as morality :/

[ImpactBreaker]

maybe she'll actually be a role model on what you shouldn't do? LOL

This is just out of curiousity, but did you ever watch Nickelodeon in the '90s.
Because they've gotten so much better since then, in terms of family appropriate shows.

It's been some time since I watched nickelodeon. But what's the difference from children from the 90's and children from nowadays? QWhat's innapropriate, is innapropriate. It doesn't matter if nickelodeon wqas grosser in the past. The fact is, they were.

But they don't have character's with the credit card number 12345ballsack6789 anymore. And while I understand that has nothing to do with violence (just being disturbing and gross), at least they've canceled shows like that. So at least they're trying.

I do understand your point, though and I'm not trying to argue with you. I just wanted to point out an improvement.
If you can call it that.
lol

Well, thanks for pointing it out. I was not aware they had changed much. You're right, it's been some time since I've last watched it, so maybe my opinions are biased regarding that matter.

[Kodayumi]

Yea, I heard about this news.

It's kinda silly to get yourself pregnant at age 16. In Singapore, it's considered as underage sex. And wth, someone was recommending good parenting eh?

Meh, it's no big deal. I understand why you would think that.

Wasn't it considered statutory rape in the state?

[Luv ~Venus~]

It's only statutory rape i she said he raped her but she said that they both decided to have sexual intercourse.

Anyway, it seems that the news of her pregnancy didn't last long. So much for good publicity.

Oh, about the nickelodeon subject, Nick had very appropriate shows. They were great for all ages and the gross stuff wasn't really all the gross. Nowadays, nickelodeon has taken all the fun from their network and turing into another Disney. Mostly all of their shows are aimed towards kids and all the gross stuff is being replaced stupid stuff. Maybe I wouldn't understand nick now since I've grown up out of that stuff.

Children shouldn't be having children. A nine year old's body isn't even DEVELOPED to handle a child.

That makes Jamie-Lynn's nearing motherhood out and out normal.

I know. I'm not implying pregnancy at 9 years old is normal, that's actually really a serious problem. But a 16 years pregnancy isn't anything shocking in my opinion (I think people are overreacting to this), because almost all girls have already reached puberty and are fully grown up when they're 16 (I'm not saying grown up as in maturity, though, girls do mature faster than guys anyway). Of course it's better to avoid and prevent earlier pregnancies (even on 16) because they have their share of risks + the social problems related to the young mother physiology and behavior.

Well statutory rape means that even if she did allow it, the law says that she is not capable of making such a decision. That's why the law was created. The district attorney or whatever could prosecute.

I doubt it though, with the Hollywood favorism of stars, letting them slide in whatever they do.

^I thought the age of consent to have sexual intercourse was 16 (in many states)???

[milky_way]

^ I thought for most states it was 18.
