certainly has, and she's sounding off abou her embattled daughter's
seemingly never-ending barrage of police run-ins and headline-grabbing
antics, which now includes accusations that LiLo swiped a bystander
with her car on Wednesday in New York and fled the scene.
"I'm certainly not making excuses for Lindsay's behavior," Dina told
the New York Daily News Friday. "But she's a 26-year-old woman."
The controversial mom also second-guessed her decision to push LiLo
into showbiz at such a young age, which found the precocious and
talented star scoring a slew of ads and top billing in flicks like The
Parent Trap before she was even a teenager.
"I was born into the business," Dina says. "My mother was an
entertainer. It was natural. But yes, in the next life, I might no do
it."
