Why is everyone dissing on Britney. Sure I don't agree with the way she had handled her life lately but hey she is a one of a kind-no need to diss.lol She has always been a fav. of mine. I just feel sorry for her for what's she's been doing with her life and to herself but hey we all make mistakes.
P.S. Also usually a story about Britney especially this kind of story makes the Front page news-not the Back page news.

I'll reply to this. When she first came out as a pop star, I thought that she was setting a pretty good example for young girls/women who might want to be successful or a star. And she isn't the only one, I put Christina & several others in this group. Then she starts doing some rather
DUMB things.
The most stooopid being getting involved with Federline. I mean, come on!! He has a pregnant girlfriend, which is their second?? Let's turn it around, how would dear ole Britney feel if she was the expectant mother & the "father" of her baby just leaves her for another woman? I guarantee she'd be crushed & confused.
Now, I know we "can't control who we fall in love with". But we
can control who we lie with!!! If she was a real woman, she would have said, "Kevin, go home! Take care of the family you already have."
I'm sorry but that punk is nothing but
Trouble! I'm ready for the day when I hear that he has left her. Just how many kids will she have?? 2, 5, 10???
Also the audience that she reaches is generally pre-teens & teens. I'm sorry, but if that is your audience, you have a responsibility to set an example. Now, I'm sure that I hear that, "She has a right to live her life". Yes, she does. I'm not begrudging her that at all. It's just when in the public eye, remember people, especially your audience,
dreams of know you, of BEING you!I have many young nieces & nephews. I know that they look at me as an example on how to live life. Yes, I drink & ocassionally smoke, but
NEVER in their presence. I let the older ones know that I do, but I respect them even so not to it in front of them. I think we need to live the example & not expect kids to do as we say, not as we do.
Yes, it's a big burden, but she's known this for many, many years. I'd just hate for some 13 or 14 year old girl who wants to be Britney, but ends up becoming Shar Jackson. See what I'm getting at?
Also, I heard on the radio not more than 2 weeks ago, that she was spotted drinking alcohol & smoking cigarettes.
WHILE PREGANT!!! That is a horrible example set by any expectant mother!
