    BEIJING, Aug. 13 (Xinhuanet) -- Lindsay Lohan's former bodyguard says if you think her life is a mess, place the blame on her parents.

    “Lindsay was a very sweet and talented kid, but she didn't stand a chance against her parents and the Hollywood system,” Tony Almeida told In Touch magazine.

    Lindsay tried it all -- sex, drugs, suicide attempts -- while underage and under the neglectful eyes of her legal guardians, Mom and Dad, the story reports.

    Even when her soon-to-be absentee daddy, Michael, did pay attention to Lindsay's bad behavior, the punishment was worse than the crime.

    Annoyed with Lindsay's late-night whining, the magazine reports that "Michael slammed on the brakes and dragged her out of the car, pushed her up on the hood, screamed at her and called her a slut," Tony recalls. "I got in the middle of it and pulled him off."

    Like the stand-up dad he is, Michael claims ignorance of the incident. Still, Pops Lohan told In Touch, "If I did do it, if that's the worst anyone can say about me, then it's not too bad."
