Jamie Lynn's raw account of her own suffering makes it all the more jarring that she doesn’t extend the same compassion to her sister

Photo: Michael Loccisano/Getty Images Jamie Lynn Spears has said her new memoir, Things I Should Have Said, is not about her sister. Yet it’s hard to ignore the timing: The tell-all arrived on shelves this week on the heels of Britney’s extremely publicized conservatorship battle.

She also writes at length about her unplanned pregnancy in 2007, when she was 16. At the time, Jamie Lynn had just wrapped Zoey 101, the teen comedy she starred in on Nickelodeon, and she describes how, overnight, she went from a budding teen star to a “slut” in the public eye.

Meanwhile, Jamie Lynn wavers between portraying herself as an oblivious 17-year-old in 2008, the year the conservatorship went into effect, subsumed by her own difficulties, and as a guiding light in her sister’s life who helped “keep Britney’s emotional episodes hidden from the world.

Blaming everyone else for how her actions made them feel yet dismissing all responsibility she holds for the choices that she chose that enabled those actions. She has sociopathic behaviors.

I believe that people should stop taking sides and making judgments. Disfunctional families exist and there are 3 sides to every story. Only the Spears siblings know the real facts and need to face their truths. We are just pawns, judging behind social media.

Great read!
