Lindsey Lohan is a great example what non-existent family can do to someone in the spotlight

So Lindsey Lohan is heading back to jail for 30 days as she admitted that she violated for probation as she has been missing court ordered therapy sessions and also being kicked out of Downtown Women's Center. ALL of Lindsay's community service must now be served at the L.A. County Morgue and if it is not then she will have a warrant out for her and 270 days of jail more but for right now she needs to serve 30 days in jail and she has to serve 20% of the sentence so she will be in jail for 6 days. The most interesting thing is that she is out for a week before having to serve the jail sentence and during this week she will be doing her playboy photo shoot which is likely the biggest payday that the 25-year-old Lohan has had in a very very long time and might not be seeing this kind of money for quite a while.

It was not always this way for Lohan who used to have a promising movie career which started in 1998 when she starred in the remake of the Parent trap and she was got good reviews like "the soul of this film as much as Hayley Mills was of the original" along with " she is more adept than her predecessor at creating two distinct personalities " and the movie grossed 92 million dollars. Then after a few quiet years where she made small Disney movies like Life-Size (2000) and Get a Clue (2002) before getting into her biggest period of her career of 2003-04 when she did Freaky Friday which is her top grossing movie by bring in 160 million dollars and got a very good review by Roger Ebert who said of Lohan "has that Jodie Foster sort of seriousness and intent focus beneath her teenage persona." Then followed that up with Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen which grossed 29 million dollars and got a good review from Brandon Gray of Box Office Mojo who said "well above expectations as it was strictly for young girls" and then came her high point in Mean Girls that grossed 126 million dollars and Brandon Gray said of her "cementing her status as the new teen movie queen," and Steve Rhodes wrote "Lohan dazzles us once more. The smartly written script is a perfect match for her intelligent brand of comedy." She also received breakout star at the 2004 teen choice awards and Best female performance at the 2005 awards.

Then her parents got divorced in 2005 and made it official in 2007 and Lindsey career went south as she was partying very hard and working to hard as she was known to show up late to the filming of her next movie Herbie: Fully Loaded in 2004 she was hospitalized because of a kidney infection brought on by stress in her personal life and of recording her first album while the film was in production. The movie grossed big bucks with 144 million dollars but she did not get good pub she taken off the promotional tour and taken out of the movie poster but of her undisney like behavior and she was on again, off again Wilmer Valderrama that did not help things while her parents were more interested in their new found fame than looking after their daughter who was starting to become a mess. Then came just my luck that paid her big bucks in 7 million but did not bring in big bucks only 5.7 million opening week and brought her a golden Raspberry award nomination for worst actress and then came the limited release of A Prairie Home Companion and then a part in superstar movie in Bobby where she redeemed herself with a scene opposite Sharron Stone that she received favorable comments. Then in 2006 she had to go to Alcoholics Anonymous and even though she had had asthma she was a smoker and during I Know Who Killed Me she had to have an appendix surgery and then had to head to Wonderland Center rehabilitation facility and started withdrawing or fired from movies like A Woman of No Importance and The Edge of Love. Then just before the shooting of Poor Things she was arrested for DUI and usable amount cocaine in the car and she was sent back to rehab and after getting out of rehab she given a SCRAM bracelet to monitor her sobriety and then came another DUI.

Then everybody basically over the last three years and still the parents are nowhere to be seen except dad been reporting beating up his new girlfriend and mom had her E! which was a complete disaster and she partied hard with her girlfriend Samantha Ronson on and off.

So this whole ladies future went down the tubes because she had nobody to point her in the right direction or honestly look out for her best interest and it shows how a good family like the one Fred Savage had where he was a child star and then went to university and had a backup plan if working in front of a camera fell through and learned how to direct and had directed family shows and Daddy Day Camp in 2007.

So I hope Lindsey can find someone or something to help her turn her life around before it is too late
