Nickelodeon is considering a special for its young audience about sex and love following the news that sixteen-year-old Zoey 101 star Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant.

For the special, Nickelodeon said it’s talking with veteran newswoman Linda Ellerbee, the veteran newswoman who has stepped in frequently in the past with shows on talking to children about difficult issues in the news. She’s done shows about same-sex parents, AIDS, the Columbine shooting and President Clinton’s impeachment scandal.

“I think it’s important that something be done,” Ellerbee told The Associated Press on Thursday. “But I think it’s important that it be done in a measured way, and not just to feed the beast of news stories.”

“This is a great opportunity for parents at this moment to talk to their kids about this — more important, to listen to their kids about this,” Ellerbee said.

A Nickelodeon spokesman, Dan Martinsen, confirmed the discussions but said no decision had been made.
