[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I felt incredibly sad watching this documentary as a mother myself--it put a lot of what Britney was going through in perspective. Perspective I did not have when I was in my early 20s watching her completely fall apart before our eyes. It never really occurred to me until I watched this that there are a lot of parallels between Britney and Princess Diana--both suffered from mental health issues, both were basically abused by the media, both harassed incessantly by the paparazzi, and both framed as the problem in her relationships. And watching that interview with Matt Lauer now makes me sick. I remember watching that when it initially aired thinking what a mess she is. Now as a mother myself, I could not imagine the sadness I would feel having my ability as a mother scrutinized on national tv (by a man nonetheless), or the rage I would feel if my kids were taken from me. Britney should have an independent conservator. It was the right thing for her father to step in at the point of crisis because otherwise, she probably wouldn't have made it out alive. Now, she seems to have a good support system in place and should have the ability to decide who should manage her finances and self-care. It's sad that she is unable to make these decisions for herself and her family basically uses her for $. I hope the court eventually rules in her favor. [/quote] agree[/quote]
