Lynne Spears says every mother makes
mistakes but she has no regrets about letting her daughters Britney and Jamie
Lynn pursue their dreams of stardom.
"I think you have to let them follow
their dreams. I think it would be worse in the end if you didn't," Spears,
53, told People magazine in an interview marking the publication next week of
her much-anticipated memoir.
As Britney's star rose, Spears said she
felt she was losing control over both her daughter and how she was portrayed.
"I let other people talk me out of
things that I felt a gut instinct about," she told People.
The memoir "Through the Storm: A Real
Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World," is published by Thomas
Nelson, a Christian publisher of bibles and inspirational books.
It chronicles Spears' family during the
phenomenal rise of Britney Spears in the late 199Os and her highly publicized
meltdown.
Originally planned for a May release, the
book was postponed in January after Jamie Lynn Spears, then 16, announced in a
celebrity magazine that she was pregnant.
In excerpts from the memoir to be
published in Friday's People magazine, Spears rejected criticism that she was a
pushy stage mother or had sought to profit from the careers of her daughters.
