The bosses of children's TV network Nickelodeon are considering staging an educational special on sex and love after learning one of their biggest stars, Jamie-Lynn Spears, is pregnant at 16.

Spears, Britney Spears' little sister, stunned the world earlier this week when she confirmed she was three months pregnant, and Nickelodeon bosses were among the first to show their support.

But, as they consider what to do with the teen's hit show Zoey 101 in the wake of the shocking news, network heads are thinking about aiming a special at curious kids in an effort to promote safe sex and abstinence.

Meanwhile, the third season of the show, which ends on January 4th, is expected to continue as scheduled. No decision has been made about the future of Zoey 101, which is set to start filming again in February.
