I think Britney always wants all eyes on her. That’s why she acts the way she acts. Drinks, does drugs and so on. She really needs to grow up and only worry about her self, her sons and not what other people or fans may think.

It sounds like she has matured somewhat and may be on the right track. Good for her and I wish her the best.

I completely agree with you, Lilybett! Well said! =)

Lilybett I agree with your entire post.

I can’t help myself thinking that Britney really is ‘playing the victim’, intentionally or not. She seems very concerned with herself, her feelings and with what people (mostly strangers) think of her. I feel Britney is putting far too much effort and energy into trying to please everybody. She writes ‘… I feel I was too open…’ – well, I feel she still is, now more than ever. With those long open letters (remember that bitter poem she had on her website last year?) she just ensures that paps/mags etc. have even more ammunition against her. It’s like a vicious circle and maybe that’s another reason why there is always such a huge crowd of paps following her around, because they know she’s giving them more than other celebrities do. It’d be better if she’d deal with her issues in private.

Britney, grow up. Your babies should be your concern, not what people think of you!
I wish Britney and her little sons well.

I feel like Britney’s biggest problem is that she cares too much what other people think of her and not enough about what she thinks of herself. She seems to need a lot of external validation – and basing your life on that is always going to lead to disappointment.

Lillybett: I agree with your post, you make some very good points.

I’m not sure I agree with some of the other comments. I’ve lived with addicts and this sounds like avoiding admitting she had/has a problem. I agree with her about people’s belief in the worst and people manipulating her. I think every celebrity has similar issues. But I don’t think she was put in rehab by her parents and manager for them to avoid being fired, disowned etc. It sounds to me like she IS trying to lay blame at other people’s feet. Sure, alcohol and depression might not have been the root cause of her problems but I believe they certainly took over her life and caused her to act out in the many strange ways we saw after Jayden’s birth.
She might be a mum/mom but I think she’s missed some vital stage of “growing up”.

I really hope she can get herself together, especially for those two precious babies. Sounds like she could use some time volunteering or maybe mentoring a young girl, maybe a young teen who’se interested in dance. Britney, if you’re reading this, we love you and want you to be happy!

That part where she says that most of the time people use her really touched me.
It seems like she can’t trust anyone anymore.
I hope she gets better and I hope she enjoys every single second of being a mom because like she said it. Kids are a blessing <3

I wish Britney the best of luck in finding peace and happiness in her life.
