Jamie Lynn Spears has a dearth of responsible role models. Her millionaire sister lost custody of her kids to a jobless wigger, and her mom is the classic stage mother, which probably directly contributed to the former. So we suggest that Jamie Lynn take the advice of Solange Knowles. Seriously. There is probably not one other person on the planet who knows exactly what it's like to be the overlooked kid sister of a singing superstar and get knocked up in your teens. So listen up, little chickadee, cause Solange is laying it on ya, via Us Weekly:
Solange Knowles knows the challenge of being a famous teen mother.Knowles, now 21, welcomed son Daniel in 2004 at the age of 18 (she split with husband, former college football player Daniel Smith, after the baby was born).
"I'm sure a lot of people perceived that I was gonna be a young, irresponsible mom," Knowles told Usmagazine.com during a recent visit.
But Knowles pointed out, "I think that there are some moms who are 35 who are just as irresponsible."
What advice does she have for the 17-year-old mom-to-be Jamie Lynn Spears?
"You just have to make the best decisions for you," Knowles said. "You have to decide what's best for you.
"Who are we to say what's right and wrong for a person?"
To focus on raising her son, Knowles said she "moved to the country for a year" without any nannies or babysitters.
"My parents lived on a whole opposite part of the world," she said. "My son has been my focus ever since the day he was born."
"He's been the light of my life," she added, "the inspiration behind everything."
Good parenting, not letting grammy tell the kid what to do, focusing on the child, yada yada yada. But Us Weekly is refusing to report Solange's most sage piece of advice to young'un Spears: "Whatever you do, don't bleach your baby. They'll never let you live it down."
