Anyone else see some potential problems with that? Anyone see J-L being a grandma at age 36?

Originally Posted By gottaluvdavillains The sad thing is if she really wants to give this baby up then she really should - not have her mother raise it but to one of the many families waiting for a baby...Lynne had her children and is now a grandmother - not only that she is a single parent. Maybe she should give this baby a chance to be raised by parents that have been waiting years for the chance to raise a child and the key word her would be PARENTS not Parent... Nothing against single parents - I was one - but really now does anyone think Lynne Spears would qualify as an adoptive parent so quickly if she went through all the channels so many parents have to go through to get a baby...

She doesn't work - Her kids are all off doing what they want - Britney bought her the house she lives in - by keeping the baby she will ensure that Jamie-Lynne can still work and therefore support her.

Originally Posted By gottaluvdavillains I am curious - can she just give this baby to her mother to adopt or does the mother have to go through the hoops to qualify (I understand she wouldn't have to be on a waiting list) like other adoptive parents... It seems if the did do the regular investigation she wouldn't qualify as an adoptive canidate with no income and past history...
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I have a feeling that officially Jamie Lynn may still be in charge, but her mother will be taking all the responsibility and actually doing everything. I'm not familiar with the process at all, so I'm far from an expert, but I think that's what a lot of people do, especially when they will all be living in the same house anyway.

Originally Posted By melekalikimaka <<The point of Lynne taking the baby was so J.L. could go back to LA and concentrate on her Career>> I think that's the whole problem...it just appears that no matter what, their Hollywood careers are the most important thing. I think some time away from Hollywood might just be the best thing for the entire family. Of course, that's just the way it appears to me, the outsider, so I could be totally wrong.
Originally Posted By gottaluvdavillains I totally agree Mele - the quote from the story was so she could concentrate on her career <reportedly give the child to her mother Lynne as soon as it is born, so she can focus on her career> This little girl is 16 and pregnant the last thing anyone in her family should be thinking about is this girls career!!
