Britney wasn’t “used and abused”. She was lucky she had a mom who went into bankruptcy, uprooted the family to NY and Florida, got her rich at 16 with minimal singing talent and took a gamble on her kid. She’s even luckier she didn’t lose her life or her actual children’s lives or to jail with her antics in 2005-2006 like feeding them chips and hard candy and driving around like a maniac without sense . She could’ve killed a civilian or her kids or herself. She’s lucky her father came in and saved her life and restored some good old fashioned discipline and fear into his silly dingbat daughter’s life . He was better than the prisspot Hwood managers and creepy soft spoken mother who invited Dr. Phil to the hospital when Britney was sedated for suicidal ideation and manic behavior. She already had a book ready for prime time when Britney was hospitalized for suicidal ideation and psychiatric evaluation. The dad has said nothing and sold nothing to the media about his own family unlike the mom and everyone else around the brat |
Absolutely agree. |
Well now I know she's full of it:

Pp here and this is what I’m talking about in terms of credibility. The whole Wade Robson thing is fishy too. She’s trying to say she just kissed him? Um no. |
She's the furthest thing from a reliable narrator. This many years later and she still doesn't think she has ever had any mental health issues? Come on now. |
Suppose she did the current popular thing wrote a revenge song about the abortion Justin wanted and not her. Suppose she expected him to feel guilt about it and publicly called him a jerk and wanted revenge. Would that have been more believable? |
Sweetie, you have issues. What motives you to type such a disgusting bald-faced lie? Especially in a thread where a celebrity literally just wrote a book detailing her abortion regret from over 20 years ago. |
Without a doubt seeing her niece grow into a beautiful young woman is a painful reminder of her abortion. It was senseless. |
DP but that isn’t a lie. My mom had an abortion and I wouldn’t exist without it. Even if she thinks about the embryo now and then, she thinks and loves me a whole lot more. She feels pretty good that I was raised in middle class comfort and that she could finish her college degree and meet my dad and have us. So if you want to tell me I’m less of a person than the embryo feel free. |
Were you born within 9 months of the abortion? |
PP is correct and Britney is very much the exception. “Ninety-five percent of women who have had abortions do not regret the decision to terminate their pregnancies, according to a study in the multidisciplinary academic journal PLOS ONE.” https://time.com/3956781/women-abortion-regret-reproductive-health/ https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0128832#sec013 |
One thing leads to another in life. My Dad would not have dated my mom had she a baby when they met. In fact, they wouldn’t have met because my mom would have not have still been a college dorm. From my Mom’s perspective 50 ish years later, she doesn’t think about the aborted baby much at all, but she does think about her 3 kids. I’m sorry that upsets you and glad you didn’t have say in it because I’m happy it happened that way. I’m the other side of the story, the kid of a teenager who had an abortion and went on to live a good happy life. Having an abortion doesn’t have to be horrible. |
You are clearly a compulsive liar. No mother told a daughter she was happy she aborted a baby 50 years ago. And millions of young mothers go to college and finish their degrees. And millions of men marry single mothers. Just as a child would not have destroyed Britney's career. |
Last, you live in a weird anti-abortion bubble. Every close woman friend I have had in my adult life terminated a pregnancy at one point. I don't know a single woman who ever regretted ending a pregnancy. I regret the unplanned pregnancy, but I do not for a minute regret choosing not to have a child when I was 20. Occasionally, I wonder how my life would be different if I had made a different decision. and that doesn't mean I would have had a baby...a different decision could have ended in miscarriage; who knows. But I think more about how my life would have been different if I had gone to a different college, if I had taken a different post-college job offer, and if I hadn't broken up with my HS sweetheart. My son would not exist now if I had not ended that pregnancy 22 years before his birth. I'm very happy with my choice, and I don't know anyone who has had an abortion who doesn't think it was the right choice. Regret about the pregnancy, sure, for most. But regret about ending it? No. |
I am fairly certain that had I not terminated the accidental pregnancy at 21, my husband and I would not have made it to where we are today.
So, like PP said, my marriage and 2 kids were possible because of that decision. I have zero regret for that choice. I only regret that we slipped up that one stupid time when I had been so adamant about protection prior to that. |
