On Saturday Dina Lohan responded to Michael Lohan who says their daughter Lindsay Lohan is back on drugs, and in trouble. Dina said:

"Michael Lohan needs to focus on being a parent, paying child support, of which he is six months behind, and making up for all the years he was an absentee dad. And stop going on national television talking about his children publicly."

On Saturday, Michael told the photo agency X17:

"I’m going to see the judge this week…If I can’t get a conservatorship, then I’m going to take her to an undisclosed location and get her straight. But I know I’m gonna get charged with kidnapping."

During a taping Thursday of The Maury Povich Show, Michael looked into the camera and relayed the following message to Lindsay:

"I’m gonna do anything and everything I have to save your life, whether mom likes it, the public likes it, or anyone."

While Michael says he’s planning to meet with a judge and seek conservatorship, a source says that Lindsay herself plans to turn to the courts and seek a restraining order against her father. The source said:

"Lindsay is actively getting a restraining order, her lawyer have already been contacted. She’s scared. This is really serious."

Lindsay does need to be under a conservatorship, but neither Michael nor Dina should be in control of it. Dina is benefiting financially from Lindsay, and continues to enable her, Michael is too much of a mess himself to be able to handle Lindsay’s problems.

Lindsay was in court a few days ago getting another second chance, and looking wasted in front of the judge, yet no one showed any concern. People may have cared about Britney Spears, but it seems no who can help Lindsay, cares enough to help Lindsay.

Lindsay Lohan pleaded guilty for a DUI, for which she got three years probation in 2007, and 84 minutes in jail. Lohan was supposed to be attending the Right on Program for alcohol education, but she took a leave of absence to work as a failed "artistic advisor" for Ungaro. Lohan is now in trouble because the alcohol school reported to the judge that she never returned, until yesterday after Lohan was ordered to appear before a judge today.

Lohan has six weeks left to finish the alcohol education program, and since she has now started attending classes again her lawyer is hoping the judge will give her a pass for violating her probation.

We are hoping Lohan gets jail time for the remainder of her probation. Lohan is a danger to herself, and she needs a big dose of reality.

Michael Lohan went on Maury Povich, for some attention, but also to try to put public pressure on Lindsay to get help. As much as I think Michael does a lot of this for attention, at least he’s doing something to help Lindsay, which is more than Dina Lohan can say.

Maury Povich and Connie Chung went two on one with ‘EXTRA‘ to discuss the
secrets of their 22 year marriage. Chung admits telling the truth is key as well
as engaging in activities you are passionate about.

Ironically the interview was taped prior to the filing of a sexual harassment
suit against Povich and other members of his staff by a former producer.
