Loose vs. Lose
Does anyone else cringe? I know it's the old school teacher in me, but it's a big pet peeve.

^^^ Yeah, I cringe, but it's starting to be less of an issue for me. I guess I realize that people are going to constantly misspell things (definate, seperate, dessert/desert, just to name a few).
I feel so bad for these two kids. Their lives will never be normal - even by celebrity standards. Tragic, really.

Just send ME those little boys, and I will raise them. So far, my 2 girls have turned out ok.
Personally, I would love to get my hands around a baseball bat and knock some sense into Ms. Spears. That and I think she needs to get out of the spotlight and refocus on herself and her boys. Send her down to Florida and let me knock some sense into her.
I am not fond of K-fed (1st do you REALLY want your CHILDREN calling you daddy K-fed?). It does make him look bad to have dropped his babies momma for a woman who is LOADED. Not to mention I still believe that they planned it.

By no means do I consider K-Fed a highlight in Britney's life, but you can't say he's been a bad father. He was so supportive of Brit getting help months ago and really trying to get her to clean up her act so that COULD stay in control of her kids. I think he finally just said enough was enough.

I've seen great dads do much worse. That stuff is all years in the past. All of it is before the kids came.
Why does anyone really even care about this?

I don't care. But of course I still have an opinion, lol.
It's impossible to avoid hearing about it.

With her millions, why doesn't Britney hire a driver and some nannies for her kids? OY!

It really is EVERYWHERE- a good part of my current gig involves checking several media outlets regularly. It is impossible to avoid reading about this trainwreck.

Unfortunately, she isn't spending it on the therapy that she apparently needs.
Personally, when I heard that she had until Wednesday to deliver custody, but she went ahead and gave them to K-Fed on Monday; that said it all, as far as I am concerned.

I mean, he's got 10 other kids with Shar (or whatever her name is). He just wants these kids for the $$$ he can get out of Brit-Brit for child support.
Britney just made it way too easy for him to get custody. If she hadn't gone all crazy after the divorce, he wouldn't have had a case.

Right, keep in mind that he left Shar FOR Brit while she was still pregnant with his kid. He's a real..... something.....

Who would possibly be your child/grandchild? The spawn of Spears/Federline or the 'rents themselves?
And unless you have kids who are about to hit it big in the music industry, your fears are misplaced. Worry about terrorists or something.

My understanding (and I really am not a great authority on these two) is that K-Fed not only left the pregnant Shar for Britney, but both were pregnant at the same time. I have absolutely no use for ANY man who has two different women pregnant at the same time.
Also, I heard that he drops the kids off with Granny Spears to babysit, and has helped drive the wedge between Brit & her parents even deeper.
Which is not to say that I think that she's a decent parent! I have a good friend & sister in CA who has been trying to adopt for years. I could pretty much guarantee that she & her husband would be better parents! They've done extremely well with the mentally challenged child who they adopted several years ago.
