Lindsay Lohan's mother Dina has flown to Los Angeles to keep an eye on her daughter's hard-partying ways.

Although the 20-year-old Mean Girls star is not legally allowed to drink in California, she has regularly been spotted out at Hollywood nightclubs and recently admitted she is attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.

Dina Lohan tells American publication Star, "I'm out here for my child, but it's a really, really scary place for these kids out here, and a lot goes on. I needed to come see for myself this whole scene."

"(Lindsay) is my child and I'm here to make sure she's Ok, and everything, and going in the right direction. I'm here to support her and keep an eye on this situation closely."

"She needed me to see what she sees everyday - her world."

Dina is desperate for her daughter to return to her roots on the East Coast adding, "I wish she would move back to New York. I want her out of here."

"The weather's beautiful. But these kids, it's just a dangerous place."
