Lynne Spears: I Suck, Part II

On top of discussing Britney Spears' epic meltdown while promoting her new money-making vehicle memoir, Through the Storm, Mother of the Weak Week Lynne Spears delved into the topic of Jamie Lynn on Wednesday's Today show.

Specifically, her getting pregnant at 16.

Lynne recalled how she was planning to go to lunch when Jamie Lynn Spears called and told her to come home. At home, Lynne found her daughter's boyfriend (now fiance / baby-daddy) Casey Aldridge, who avoided eye contact.

Jamie Lynn handed her a note and told her to go in the bedroom to read it.

"It said she was pregnant and everything was going to be okay. She was going to raise it," Lynne Spears recalled. "I thought it was a joke ... I was waiting for the punch line. I was in shock. I think I was just truly in shock, and then I started to cry. And she then started consoling me at that point."

New author Lynne Spears' "parenting" skills have long been suspect.

Lynne - who sold the story to celebrity news magazine OK! for $1 million - added that she blamed herself for her youngest daughter's personal drama.

As a mother, don’t we always blame ourselves?" she said. "I took a lot of the blame. I took all the blame. The personality I have, it's always my fault."

Yes, Lynne, it is. But you'll get 'em next time.
