I read Kent’s answer as a condemnation of “california sobriety”. It doesn’t go off about how awful Demi is, but about how it does a disservice to sober people who cannot drink to be told that wine and weed is “sober”. That’s a gateway to relapse and prolonged issues for some people. 

“I think u [sic] should maybe change this caption to *Dog Mom and Dad* before anyone gets it twisted.”

Yes. On my local news this morning they used the phrase “family drama” to discuss this case and it really bothered me. Family drama is when the family loses the security deposit on the pontoon boat because Uncle Stew got drunk and didn’t beach it properly. Britney’s conservatorship is abuse. 

Yes, and as someone who has two sisters I’m super close to, this is just heart-breaking to me to see this being played out this way. Also I don’t think for a second that Jamie-Lynn wasn’t affected by her dad’s actions, even if it has been indirectly. Jamie-Lynn was a still a minor when all this started and she had her…

Right - its someone claiming they are being abused, monetarily drained, and legally controlled by their family due to a disability and the article reads like a Jan and Marsha fight...

I understand that this is dirtbag, so the flippant tone is expected, but it seems oddly callous and weird to me that you’re treating a situation involving alleged guardianship abuse as a sibling rivalry. If Britney Spears’ testimony is anything to go by, she holds her entire family responsible for the abuse she has…

Thanks. I know it’s “popular”, so to speak, right now to be fully on her side, but again, I agree that something wrong is going on.

Yeah but how many people realize that?

René Angelil 100% groomed Celine Dion. It’s barely even controversial to say. It’s so unbelievably creepy.

It’s like watching a Salem Witch trial in real time. Sink or float, you always lose the test and die.

Plus how much of Britney’s breakdown was her merely reacting to the circumstances she was in rather than having a behavioral health problem?

When you look at Britney as a whole person, she really wasn’t that threatening or reckless or self-harming. She was a child star in fits of rebellion. I can think of five grown ass men who were violent and did the same shit she did on a grander scale and no one would think of putting them under a conservatorship.…

That whole thing looks like creepytown from the outside looking in though, yeah.

Okay but the fact that Celine’s husband clearly groomed her from when she was 12 years old doesn’t get enough attention.

But that’s the problem with conservatorships: they’re self-reinforcing.

It was a surprise “tribute” and she likely would have wanted to sing her own songs. Imagine being told you can only do the thing you love when someone else tells you to and they control final decisions in how you do it. Then to have a family member, who is aware of all this, participate in a “tribute” to you regarding…

A lot of people are skeptical that she wrote this post. They believe she doesn’t have control of her social media, and If I were on the side of her shitbag father, this exactly the sort of thing I’d write to make her sound unstable.

I appreciate and sympathize with Spear’s feelings, but I hope her new lawyer tells her to knock that stuff off until she is out of that hellish conservatorship; because that is exactly the sort of thing the conservator’s lawyers can use to say that she is not in full control of her emotions and thus needs a…

Star for “factory-refurbished.”  LOL!

Oh the pandemic-induced long hair trend for men-
