Doctors against Lindsay’s mom acting as manager

LONDON - Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan has apparently been advised by her doctors to remove her mother Dina as her manager.
The “Machete” actress is currently undergoing a rehab treatment programme at the Betty Ford Clinic in Los Angeles and medics have warned her if Dina continues to focus her energies on her daughter’s career rather than being a parent to her, Lindsay will find it harder to beat her drug problems.
“Dina needs to no longer act as her manager, or work for her daughter in any capacity. Lindsay needs Dina to simply be her mother. Lindsay’s treatment team at Betty Ford has emphasised this to Lindsay, very, very strongly,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
“Lindsay feels the financial burden of taking care of her entire family. It’s enormous pressure for any person in their twenties, let alone someone that is battling with addiction. Lindsay and Dina don’t have a normal mother-and-daughter dynamic because of the length of time that Dina has worked for Lindsay,” the source added.
