i feel really bad for britney spears - Page 4

[ShadowMom]

I don't understand the point of making sure that we understand her situation and hope she gets help, but we don't want to "feel sorry for" Britney.

I can't think of many people in the world who aren't deserving of some compassion. I don't really understand the point of witholding it just because someone has a lot of privilege in their lives.

I do feel sorry for Britney; it's a good example of how having many wonderful things in life (unlimited resources and help) cannot make someone happy when they are suffering.

I feel terrible for the whole family. I don't think Britney ever had a "normal" life. She started working when she was 11 years old.

I feel especially bad for her boys. Now that she has lost all visitation, they will miss her so badly. Thay are not aware of the details; they just know they miss mommy. I'm sure they are crying for her or at least asking where she is, which I'm sure is painful for their father. I fear that they may feel abandoned and will require professional help in the future.

I really like Britney and I sincerely hope she gets through this rough time.

I am not sure she had stabilizing influences. Before mass institutional schooling everybody worked before they were 11 years old and they were literate and all of society did not pull this crap.

I agree with the professional help in the future part, but not the rest at this point. Who have the boys been able to attach to? Kevin? Certainly not nannies unless the family respected them a lot more than is reported ... you cannot hire and fire your nannies at will when they are your children's primary caregivers.

The court monitor reported that the boys were bonded to their mother even though her house was choatic and she was often distracted. So I am sure they are missing her even though the lack of visitation may be in their best interests for now. I agree that Kevin is most likely just an absent presence in their life, though I, of course, wouldn't know one way or the other.
