[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the Free Britney nonsense speaks volumes about how ignorant most people are when it comes to mental health and/or addiction. As a lawyer, I can tell you that families struggle to protect their loved ones. It is not easy to secure a guardianship or conservatorship. There are people who prey upon others and steal their money, retirement, SS, VA benefits, etc. Preventing her from marrying protects her interests. I can’t tell you how many families are left with no way to protect their loved one once a spouse is in the mix. [/quote] +1 You've stated the truth. Some of the posters here seem to have very limited experience with these types of issues or perhaps have their own issues and ate resistant to family intervention. [/quote] None of you who claim to have experience with mentally ill family members were in equivalent circumstances. Your mentally ill loved one didn’t maintain a wildly successful career while financially supporting your entire family during their conservatorship. It doesn’t work to say a woman is too impaired to decide who she wants to marry or to be involved in deciding what medications she should take but not too impaired to gyrate half naked and perform lap dances on stage for money. To strip her of her agency and then pressure to her to work under intentionally highly sexual conditions is just gross. It reeks of exploitation. [/quote]
