Am I the only one who feels sorry for Britney's children?

Not only do they have a total w*er as a father, but their mother is spotted in various states (as in United States!) with an assortment of 'party' friends and her hoo-ha hanging out only weeks after giving birth to number two. Five weeks after baby 2, Their dad was in NYC 'performing' on Jay Leno, and mom was in Vegas with some buddies. Are they the least-considered 'celebrity' babies on the planet? Poor loves, they didn't choose to have a pair of arseholes for parents. If they didn't have millions, they would be in care by now.

Put it this way , at least maybe they are being looked after by a nanny or someone who does care for them. I mean, I dont know Britney or that other fellow, but if they werent the best of parents, at least they do have other around them who do care... I can think of children alot worse off... IYSWIM

HumphreyCushiONtheFirstNoel · 06/12/2006 23:14

I'm sure they're not being left at home on their own.
I think suggesting that they would be in care is a little extreme.

Quootiepie · 06/12/2006 23:15

but I do feel sorry for them abit, if it is as it seems... neither parent being there much...

Tortington · 06/12/2006 23:35

we dont know that.

snap me going out to pub every week and it would look the same- they promote what they do and who they are to perpetuate heir fame

my guess is they have months at a time at home - all the time with their children and then weeks away.

i bet they get more time with their kids than i do

No, I don't.

I feel sorry for kids who have parents like that and live in a dive like our old neighbourhood, Muirhouse.

Now that's just shit.

sunnywong · 07/12/2006 03:32

no lockets
the story about LA social services wanting to have a meeting with her

purplemonkeydasheranddancer · 07/12/2006 06:37

I feel sorry for them. she's got a new baby ffs she should be at home with him. with BOTH of them. babies NEED their moms. (they need both parents but hey!) Just because you can afford a good nanny doesn't make you a good parent.

redbullandbump · 07/12/2006 06:42

i to feel sorry for them, their she is strutting her stuff of around town showing her private bits as she isnt wearing pants with these skirts, and then theres that thing as a father poor little things.

kittyschristmascrackers · 07/12/2006 07:25

I think there are plenty of children who genuinely need our pity, these little rich kids are not amoungst them.

purplemonkeydasheranddancer · 07/12/2006 08:58

so, because they aren't the most hard done by kids in the world we should feel sorry for them? I have a lot of sympathy and pity to go round i can afford to send some their way.

I have just read that she is to be investigated by the LA dept of children and family services, so at least the fact that the parents (well, mother) is loaded doesn't appear to cloud judgment there. She hasn't done much to help her case though, has she. Firstly when snapped driving away from Paparazzi with baby 1 on lap and no belt (I appreciate that the paps are a pain in the arse, but that was just stupid) then there was the time she was tottering along in her platforms and tripped, dropping the baby who was just caught by her minder, but his little head whipped back. Then, whilst I was in the US, there she was at the Pussycat Dolls gig in Vegas (which, incidentally is in Nevada, a totally different state) whilst her 5 week old baby was in a totally different state. When my babies were that young I couldn't bear to be seperated from them - I felt they needed me, and instinct couldn't bear me to be parted from them. Newborns are so vulnerable, I can't imagine that anyone whose social life is more important than their newborn is going to get any better at putting that child's needs ahead of their own as they grow up.

I'm afraid I can't be so bountiful, there are too many actually unpleasant issues that take up my emotions. I haven't got any to spare for the likes of them.

wrappingpaperBOwZZAndribbons · 07/12/2006 09:32

Custy your kids are teenagers. I certainly was not in the pub every week when mine were 5 weeks old - and am not now although might be given a bit more money and a babysitter.

kittyschristmascrackers · 07/12/2006 09:38

I didn't leave my babies when they were 5 weeks old, but that was my choice, because I didn't want to ( well sometimes I did ).

But it is not right to judge her on whether she leaves her baby to go out. If that's ok for her no one should say that it's not.
You can't judge people by your own standards and say that these are the guidlines by which everyone else must stand or fall.

The one I feel sorry for is Mel B's unborn child. What a complicated, messy, unhappy situation to bring a child into....

I think everyone judges by their own standards, but sometimes it is wrong to judge and other times, when the actions of one person are to the detriment of another, it is irresponsible or cowardly not to say something. Perhaps I am wrong and in actual fact her children are much better off without her being around.

Earlybird, I agree. She's one of those people who can't seem to get involved in a nice, easy, calm and happy situation!
