This is abuse. Her oan family should be in jail for this!

It seems like financial control doesn't just mean management of the finances she already has - it also means managing what she does/her work and "making money" which is utterly bizarre. Especially if they're saying she has a serious chronic (and in fact terminal) condition. Dementia prognosis is not good. Why on earth would they be sending her out to do more work, if their concern was for her health.

If you're just concerned about someone being responsible for their financial position and not able to control that themself, all that's really needed is control over the estate, the person given a reasonable "allowance" from their estate to do whatever they want with (without access to the bulk to risk bankrupting themself) and a requirement that they co-sign any contract or legal document (to keep them protected from making poor "big decisions" and from scams).

That's not uncommon when people are vulnerable; mainly for that last part (keeping them protected from scammers who will take advantage). But day to day spending and living? Should ALL still be up to them unless they are profoundly disabled. In this case, she quite clearly is not, and they don't consider her to be either, because they've had her on TV and doing shows! :umm2:

Her family kept her drugged up and are sponging off her. This is criminal!

This. Sounds like he thought it was the medical term for "crazy".

I wondered that honestly. People use "demented" to mean "unstable" and I suspect he thought that's what "dementia" means. "Someone who can be a bit unhinged".

wtf? That's absolutely horrendous. I hope her dad is prosecuted for all this

Her family not only control her money, but every aspect of her life.
They use her as a cash cow and put her on lithium when she refused to perform.
How is this allowed in the 21st century?

No as in 2008 he (His Slick Lawyer) will claim he kept her alive.
But since then the Money has kept him and his family well off



Its bad luck for her.


The Court is looking to Cut him off
Evil Dad.

Yes Evil.

She's paying for both of their lawyers and her whole family is sponging off her.
This needs to end now.

It is concerning, lithium is a very serious "last resort" medication for people with severe depressive disorders who have failed to respond to other medications and are at high risk of suicide. They have to monitor lithium levels in the blood constantly because it can build up and completely **** your kidneys, amongst other nasty side effects.

I do find that a particularly ironic part of the whole case; she has to pay (via her estate) for his lawyers to fight against her. I feel like it's such a messed up situation that, assuming a hopefully good outcome for Britney here, they really need to look at the legal processes that have lead to this being possible. I'm sure the Lockian philosophies that the entire US constitution uses as a foundation would be 100% against this even being vaguely possible.

They just stopped her usual medication and switched her to lithium.
This is criminal!

That's because her family don't work. They don't have to, they have their cash cow :fist:

She can't even marry her long time partner and have a family with him. This is unbelievable!

Well I hope she gets the justice she deserves...

It's only freedom she'd be getting here, justice would be having that piece of **** father of hers prosecuted

Her whole family should be prosecuted for this. All of them kept quiet, because they were getting her money.

He is an abuser and should be in prison, she is nothing more than a money spinner for him

I can't believe her whole family has been doing this.
How do they sleep at night? :mad:

Yes All those Millions each year.

It's on the news!

her whole family are scum. even down to her sister who faked support for Britney. It's heartbreaking hearing she can't do things like have a baby or go to the doctors without permission. forcing her into therapy with someone she has no trust in and feels vulnerable even travelling to go see is repulsive.

Her father needs jail, I don't think it's a stretch to say he's mentally abused his daughter all for money, he is nothing but a parasite. all those involved ore who benefited from this should be ashamed.

This has to end now, her life has basically been hijacked and its absolutely disgusting if it's not stopped and let the poor woman live her life on her own terms.

I'm praying this ends and I really hope Britney follows through on suing her family. I bet if its investigated her rancid father has stolen millions from her
