America's least favorite celebrity mom, Dina Lohan, visited the 
Today  Show Monday after spending time at the Betty Ford Center with  troubled daughter Lindsay.
Lindsay's chief enabler and de facto  publicist called the facility "life-changing" and an "amazing place,"  and sounded surprisingly humble (for her) about her struggles.
Matt  Lauer asked Dina, who spent two weeks in family sessions at the clinic,  about Lindsay's condition. "Happy, relaxed. She's just a different  person," Dina said.

"She's been in a couple  facilities, but this one, to me, has really changed her. They get into  your psyche and your family and they bring the problem to the surface."
Lauer  and Lohan sparred the last time she was on 
Today, but this  time, there wasn't too much contention, even when Matt pressed Dina  Lohan on Lindsay's woes.
"When the judge said [Lindsay] needed  to go here and sent her, he said to her in no uncertain terms, 'You're  an addict,'" Lauer said. "Does Lindsay fully get that?"
"Yes," Dina answered. "And this teaches you that you  are, and she's young. I thank God that he didn't incarcerate her because  that wouldn't have helped her."
"Being so young, admitting that  can only help her in the future."
Dina says she realizes the  severity of the problem, too" "We take it a day at a time. Addiction is  difficult. I don't know, I don't have a crystal ball. I pray hard."
Dina  says Lindsay  Lohan wants to start her own rehab facilities for other young  people (yes, she's serious), and acknowledged her desire to return to  film.
Lauer asked if Dina would encourage another early release.
"Lindsay  wants to stay," Dina said, showing surprising maturity. "She's learning  the trigger points and why she turns to drugs or addiction. It's a life  journey."
The 
Today interview came after news of Lindsay  Lohan's reunion with father Michael Lohan, Dina's ex, at Betty Ford.  The reunion was reportedly "emotional."
There were "hugs, kisses,  even a few tears." Might our girl finally be getting it together and  turning over a new leaf? Here's hoping her parents help this time.
