    BEIJING, Oct. 26 (Xinhuanet) -- Lindsay Lohan's dad, Michael, released from jail a few months ago and now a born-again Christian, says he wants to patch things up with his starlet daughter.

    "Reconciliation and redemption ¡ª across the board," says Lohan. "Just all of us getting right with God."

    Lindsay, 21, star of "Mean Girls," "Freaky Friday" and other films, has said that her father's behavior and her parents' divorce have caused her to act out.

    Michael and estranged wife Dina Lohan settled their long-simmering divorce in August, months after he left a New York state prison where he served almost two years for drunken driving and other charges.

    He reunited with Lindsay in September after a three and a half-year estrangement. She had entered a drug and alcohol treatment center the previous month after reaching a plea deal on misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges.

    Does Lohan blame himself for Lindsay's troubles?

    "Absolutely. How can I not? I mean, we lead by example," Lohan said in an interview Wednesday with AP Television News.

    He entered a Christian-based drug and rehabilitation center in West Babylon, N.Y., after he was released from prison in March. Lohan had repeatedly said Lindsay needed the same kind of treatment.
