Lindsay Lohan's mother Dina has chastised Lynne Spears for not speaking out in defense of her troubled daughter Britney Spears. Spears recently left the Promises rehabilitation center in California after completing a 30-day program to fight substance abuse.

But Dina Lohan believes the Toxic singer's mother should have stood up for her daughter earlier against the scathing media reports criticizing Spears' downward spiral into rehab.

She says, "I don't know her mom. But I love this kid, and I feel so badly for her because I'm a mom. The girl is a beautiful kid. She married some guy just to get out of the limelight. Cut her some slack. Her mother, I'm surprised she didn't come forward. I'm not gonna sit back and go, 'You're gonna trash my kid?' If my daughter was in high school, I would be at the principal's office. Hello?"
