Film star Lindsay Lohan has been attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, her mother has recently confirmed.

Lohan, 20, is well-known for her party-girl image and is frequently pictured in tabloid publications leaving nightclubs in the early hours of the morning.

According to The Sun her mother, Dina Lohan, has said that it is a "positive" step for her daughter who was recently scolded by a film studio executive for her unprofessional behaviour.

She told People magazine: "She's been attending some meetings and it's going to be a slow process.

"As a parent, you can tell them what you can tell them, but she's 20 and I'm not going to say 'Stay home and don't go out.' I'm there for support, and I'll obviously give her my opinion, but she's fine. She's very smart." add new comment | young girls | young adults | Teens | teenagers | teenage girls | role models | parents | families

 You are most likely reading this thinking, “what is this all about”? and “what is this girl up to”? Well to be honest I wake up everyday feeling pretty much the same. What I know is I want to change the attitudes of and towards the young girls in this country, as well as giving them a framework from which they can gain a real sense of self. What I still need to figure out is the best way for maximum impact.  I spent all morning designing the website – which will look great and I will give you a sneak preview of and I am in the process or organizing the camping with some PR people. I am sure however that this will be like everything else I do, nothing will happen for ages then va va vroom!  Watch this space.
