These kids rock. I had never heard of them until today. Whereas most of the male rockabilly pioneers had tragic ends or scandalous lives that made them household names beyond what was warranted by their music, these two just stopped. She got married at 17 to Johnny Cash’s manager who was in his mid 30s. She quit performing with her baby brother when she had her first child at 19. The young man pictured here was no flash in the pan, he kept performing and writing for most of his life. He wrote Delta Dawn and You’re The Reason God Made Oklahoma. These two had a reunion concert in 1993, 32 years after they had stopped performing together, and they are still at it.

I think Britney Spears should look to women like Lawrencine “Lorrie” Collins for role models. It is already too late in a lot of ways for Britney as far as her legacy as a performer goes, but she can salvage a normal personal life if she would just quit the celebrity thing cold turkey.

There are rumors swirling around the Internet that Jamie Lynn Spears might be pregnant. She is the teenage sister of Britney Spears, the oldest troubled teen in the World.

Given the fact that the keywords in this post will draw some views from younger people, I want to take the opportunity to talk about one of my big concerns. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is the leading cause of mental retardation in the Western World. Teens tend to be a bit self absorbed at times. I want to take every opportunity to make the point that using alcohol or other drugs when you are engaged in activities that might result in pregnancy is potentially causing irreparable harm to someone that you have not met, who has not hurt anyone. In case you don’t know this, having sex results in pregnancy. Pregnancy is actually the evolutionary purpose of sex. Sex actually pre-dates Britney Spears Music Videos by many years.

If you are reading this post and you are a parent who is looking for Help For Troubled Teens, my advice is to do whatever is necessary to insure that the actions of your teens do not harm themselves or others. Just so you know, you are only responsible for providing a minor in you care with the necessities. Drives to the mall and cash are not considered necessities. Neither are internet access, cable TV, gaming consoles etc.
