View Full Version : Britney Spears is NOT a bad mother.

Yeah; lock the thread, issue a warning, but this comment made my Mrs_RKO & Spike was utterly unconsiderate and harsh.
Britney is not a bad mother, and if you are referring to the time when she almost dropped Sean Preston (like most people usually do), I'd really like to see you, rushing on a cobbled street, with 50+ papparazzi, trying to put a baby into a car.
Yes, Britney has made some errors while having her children, all of which are experience, she has admitted that she had done some wrong, but she is getting her life back on track. Just compare her to Kevin Federline, partying almost every night in Vegas, never seen with the kids, before commenting on anyone else's parenting skills!

I find it hilarious how some young children feel their opinion is so valid that they can comment on someone's parenting, and whether it is bad.

Uhmm.. no, not really.
Her voice has of course though changed over time, because she smokes and how her voice has changed with age.
But of course you are entitled to your opinion =D

If we're entitled to our opinion like you just said, we have every right to think she is a bad mother. :)
I agree with you and don't think shes a bad mother at all, shes had troubles.. specially last year but shes picking up the pieces and is now trying to get her kids back. Someone who was a bad mother, wouldnt give a flying ******, she does.

But you're not backing up your statement with proof or reasoning on why you think she is a bad mother, an opinion isn't a valid one unless there is a reason behind it.

I aint a Britney fan and Im defending her probably because its one thing to call somebody something so harsh when you don't even know the person to an extent.

Back on topic, I think some would say she was a bad mother because of things she has done. Wasn't she caught drink driving with the kids in the back?
DamonJ
16-07-2008, 08:58 PM
I'm just tired of everyone commenting on her parenting skills when they never provide a reason for it. They always refer back to the times when she almost drops one when she is beibng hounded by paparazzi, or the January 3rd incident.
Oh yeah, why did the Jan 3 incident happen? Because she wanted to stay with her children & not give them back to Kevin Federline. If all a bad mother wants to do is stay with her children, I'd hate to see a really bad one.

Example 1 - she lost them in a custody case to Kevin Federline. You can't be good and lose to that.
Example 2 - wasn't she photographed driving with her baby sat on her lap instead of in a baby-seat.
Example 3 - though this one isn't the case any more, apparently - she USED to go out, get drunk and make a fool of herself. Whilst this didn't directly affect her children then; it's hardly setting a great role model to her children. They're going to grow up and hear stories like that. Maybe they'll be the same aged 18.
I could say more but I'm not too interested in the subject tbh :tongue: I just thought I'd stick my oar in :laugh2:

Thats ridiculous, talk about an extremist opinion. And that what it is - an opinion and it's just your one. Someone else may consider how Britney behaves is being a bad mother and you should gracefully except that because it's their opinion and they're entitled to it, same as you are entitled to yours.
Getting married to random men? Being a media *****? Playing on an illness?
Yep, shes a role model to all mothers out there.
Shaun
16-07-2008, 09:04 PM
Oh and I should also mention that I hope she recovers from whatever problems she has (I've forgotten now with the media focus switching to Amy Winehouse :shocked: In fact I haven't heard any Britney-is-a-mess stories in a while. She must be doing well.). I like her music :tongue: Plus she seems quite a sweet person from interviews and TV appearances I've seen with her.

Example 2 - That was because she was being hounded that day, and she didn't want to waste time strapping in her baby, so she made a quick escape. She said this in an interview.
Example 3 - Kevin hardly sees his kids. Hes always out partying, whilst Britney is at home. He took drugs on the set of the TV show he's filming. Britney was always with her kids. And who says a woman can't go out and party?

Thats fine, that's your opinion. I can accept that and respect it. I'm not denying you the right to disagree with me. I'm just asking that people could be a little bit more open minded. Some people on here don't even really read the posts. I mean yes they read to words but not the point behind them, they just see, "Britney . . . bad mother . . ." and immediately sring into action to defend her without even really taking what the other person has said to mind.

In fairness photographers go for the worst angle possible to get something like that. There was a famous case with a celebrity (I've forgot who) where the photographer literally put the camera up someones skirt and took a picture. Female celebrities have to be careful getting out of cars because photographers lie on the floor for low angle shots.

1 - Whether or not she was 'scared of turning up', that's a piss-poor excuse for not at least trying to fight for their custody.
2 - Fair enough, I'm sure all mothers make some mistakes like that anyway.
3 - Indeed, which makes the fact she lost custody to him somewhat harder to swallow. And I don't know; society? What kind of image does that set to her children?

Thats even worse! It means she was to **** scared of getting caught out for taking crac that she didn't even bother turning up to the court case that could've potentially loose her children.
Oh and please don't say that she didn't take drugs because neither you nor I have proof that she did or didn't.

None of us live with her, nobody sees how she treats and looks after her kids at home, etc, so not one person on here can say she's a bad or a good mother. None of you have any idea what kind of mother she is like, despite what's been reported in the press [I don't even know what's been said as I've no interest in her] as we are only reading what some journalist has conjourned up. Though on the flip side, people who state she isn't a bad mum, that's equally as dumb, as you aren't living with her day in, day out, you therefore don't know how she treats and looks after her kids so you can't say one way or another whether she is a good or a bad mum and to state 'she is' or 'she isn't' is complete bull, as in actual fact, you've no idea whatsoever.

Yes, so say 'i believe she's a good/bad mother'. I just said it's bull to state that she is one way or the other when in actual fact, you really have no clue what goes on behind closed doors. She could be an amazing mum, or she could be an absolute awful one, but untill cold hard evidence proves it one way or the other, it's wrong to state it one way or the other.
Though I'll join in with everybody else here, I'm just giving my opinion. :wink: Though mine's more fact. :tongue:

Yes, so say 'i believe she's a good/bad mother'. I just said it's bull to state that she is one way or the other when in actual fact, you really have no clue what goes on behind closed doors. She could be an amazing mum, or she could be an absolute awful one, but untill cold hard evidence proves it one way or the other, it's wrong to state it one way or the other.
Though I'll join in with everybody else here, I'm just giving my opinion. :wink: Though mine's more fact. :tongue:
Well I'm not speaking for other but my contribution to this thread has been discussing the media character that it Britney, not the real person.

You can have an opinion on her singing voice because you've heard her sing. You can have an opinion on how she's portrayed in the media but you can't have an opinion on her as a mother because you don't know her as a person and how she is with her children privately, away from the paps!

The court didn't decide she was a bad mother, or that Kevin was a better father - that's not what a custody case is about. It takes into consideration extenuating circumstances, and at the time she was being hounded by paps, moreso than him - she also had a lot of issued with drugs etc. That doesn't take into question her parenting skills.

They will have considered everything when they came to that decision. They don't remove a mothers access to her kids lightly! And they know more information than all of us here, so I'd tend to trust them over people on the forum that just think she's a good mother.
