Jamie Lynn Spears has agreed to give up her unborn baby, it has been claimed. The 16-year-old star of Nickelodeon show 'Zoey 101' will reportedly give the child to her mother Lynne as soon as it is born, so she can focus on her career.
A source told America's Star magazine: "After several weeks of personal soul searching and talks and discussions with her mom, Jamie Lynn reluctantly agreed that giving up the baby is the right thing to do."
"Lynne says Jamie doesn't understand the lifelong consequences of having a baby. She wants Jamie Lynn to continue her show business career after the baby is born and Jamie Lynn also realizes she wants to enjoy her teenage years without the responsibilities of caring for a baby."
"Jamie Lynn will be back at work and trying to remind people of her talent and not that she is an unwed teenage mother."
Lynne will raise the baby at the family home in Kentwood, Louisiana, away from the Hollywood spotlight. Since Jamie Lynn announced her pregnancy she has been living at the family's $3 million estate while studying for a high school equivalency exam and attending parenting classes. But it is believed once she gives birth she will return to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career.
Jamie Lynn, the younger sister of Britney Spears, insists her 18-year-old boyfriend Casey Aldridge is the father of her baby. However, insiders claim the father is actually a much older TV executive from her show.
A source said: "Jamie Lynn has been working on her show 'Zoey 101' since she was 13. In Hollywood, little girls grow up fast and she's no exception. With everything that has gone on in her family, she needed someone to look up to."
"But the man she found seems to have completely taken advantage of her."
A representative for Jamie Lynn denied she plans to give up her baby.

I hink it is ok. but DON"T GIVE UP YOUR BABY YOU WILL REGRET IT. I classes with teenage moms, they daus that they regret not wiating, but because they didn't wait, they have beustiful, healthy children. 3 of the four of them had it when the were 16 and the three are 19 now, and the other one had her first child when she was 15, and had her secong around 16-17 and they r all good parents. THey seem prety smart, and just made a mistake, but EVERYBODY MAKES MISTAKES.

April 4, 2008 - 06:23PM - JONASBROTHERSROCK
you people are all confusing
i honestly think it's a very smart thing for her to do considering it is jamie's mom
and she is a good person
she isn't bad
and neither is her sister
just. plz u people need to stop
one second you say
she is really dumb because she got pregnant at such a young age
and the next you're jjust like
she's stupid she isn't keeping the baby
she's gonna be just like her sister
just because she made one mistake doesn't mean she's gonna make a lot of mistakes
you people just need to stay out of their business's because it is THEIRS
it's their life let them live it
April 6, 2008 - 08:08AM
prove to all these people you can be an amazing mother. no oen ever said it was impossible to be a mother and a teenager. stay strong.

How many months pregnant is Jamie? i can understand why she cant take care of the baby now. but later on she should because the baby will grow up and not no its mom or dad!someone plez tel me how many m onths pregnant she is.or when the babys do!
April 12, 2008 - 12:13PM
i think you need to keep you baby because you did what you did and you did to pay for what you did and that is to take care of you child and for you to keep it.so if i was you i would keep it.
April 14, 2008 - 06:51PM - lala
i think that your making the right decision to give up your baby to your mother because you are still a kid yourself. how do you expect to raise one? but you made a big mistake getting pregnant i hope you learn from your mistakes and think about what you do next time
April 19, 2008 - 01:12PM - alicia murrieta
jamie i know what ur going through my sister got pregnant at 16 to and she had 2 kids and she focused on her school my mom took care of the kids while she was at school and she worked really hard i know u want to focus on ur career but dont give up that little angel of a child he needs a mom like u who is funny and sweet u should give something like that away i bet u would turn out to be a great mom but its ur choice to give up the child when its born i jusst feel but that it will be with its grandma instead of its mom but thats ok its ur choice and WE SHOULD ALL STAY OUT OF UR LIFE IGHT U ROCK
April 19, 2008 - 01:39PM - sarah
even if she gives it up to her mother do you honestly think that can even count as "giving it up" i mean she will still see it she is just to young to care for it at the present rate her career is moving.
i think she will resume care for it as soon as her and casey and her life is on track.
April 23, 2008 - 06:37AM - emily
it's all good. do the best you can do!
May 4, 2008 - 03:22PM
Okay all of u hoo say she is gonna end up like her sista
u just need to shut up.kay?
britney spears has enough going on and doesnt need her name in magazines
for jamie she is taking responsibility and thank god she didnt have an abortion
I still love her show
I dont think she need s to give the baby up but if she had to I thinki it is a good choice to give it to her mom bcuz she will be able to c her son/daughter
May 11, 2008 - 11:27AM - Hannah
Well Jamie should give up her baby because if she doesnt how is she going to do Zoey101.
