My first reaction was well quit shopping there and maybe all those Celebrity Parents and Parents to be will get the privacy they want. My second reaction was how sad and twisted is this? Two famous and infamous Teen UnWed Moms get all this attention? First off Palin and Spears are glamorizing Teen pregnancy and yeah Teen Pregnancy in the USA has continued to rise over the last decade. The problem with Palin and Spears attitude about "Teen Pregnancy" is that they will be allright and have the financial resources and family. Where your typical Teen Mom is going to be Poor or MiddleClass (pretty much the same) and the will struggle and go thru many trials and tribulations and who will suffer? The babies of unwed Teenage Mothers. So while Palin is screaming about reversing RoeVsWade and anti-aborton (even in incest and rape) children and babies will continue to suffer. Not only that but istead of Palin and many other Republicans doing their part in preventing Teen Sex and Teen Pregnancy they bark up the wrong tree and don't insist that Sex Education/STD Prevention be a part of curriculum in HighSchool and Junior High. So what happens? It bites them in the hinny and Palin has a 17 year old daughter who is preggo and that's okay right? Sure. And this is the VP family they want to put in the White House right? WTF kind of message do you think that will send? People wake up.

I'm sure Jamie crys all the way to the bank
She probably laughs at us when we make a big deal out of stuff. She didn't have to get involved. She probably knew they would blab and get her some stuff stirred up. Even though she didn't tell them it was allright, she probably knew the world would find out. She could of went to somewhere private and bought it and sent it but yet she goes to a place with a reputation for blabbing. Uh hah, she knew what she was doinig and probably laughs at us for even caring.

What an American Joke!
Teenage preganacy is still not acceptable no matter what party of choice. PATHETIC!!! America is a big joke, no morals, values and ready to accept what the mass, low-lifers do. Great Big Brother example.
Tells you alot about the Parties followers.

It's all a sham
This discussion should include a key fact that this article did not: Jamie Lynn's mother purchased the gift and wrote the note. This has been publicized which made me laugh because her mother probably wanted to keep it quiet who's idea this was. Also, another thing that makes me laugh is the horror on the Palin families faces when they saw themselves linked to the white trash startlet.

Another One Jumps on the Ban Wagon
How dare the company use the "Spears Family" to promote their company sales. Teenage pregnancy was the common denominator and both girls are related to now famous people, both targets for the media. This is just plain WRONG! My mother died in April 2006 and I used the Roseboro Funeral Home. (The Funeral Director now charged with murdering his wife and sits in jail). I logged onto the Funeral Home site and there my mother was added to a client list posted to the internet. I never approved or concented to this advertisement! They even made errors! They clearly hope to gain sales by showing my community that they were hired for the contract... REALLY SICK!

Definitely a violation of privacy...
They probably didn't get permission since they haven't gotten permission from Cruise and Holmes in the past, definitely a no no.

A customer is a customer is a customer
I'm not aware of a separate but equal Constitution for famous people so unless the customer approved of the publicity, there should be a sweet breach of contract/privacy payday here for someone.
Whatever happened to common sense and common courtesy? Have they become rare skills and selective policy?
I hope this was authorized...

Turns out it was a lie. Celebs should boycot the store. No class.
