Quote From: heartoftexasThe question should not be "Does she deserve to lose her children"? The real question is "Does she deserve to keep her children"? People seem to think that parenting is a "right". I disagree. It is a privilege and an honor. God gives to us a precious untainted soul to mold into a loving and productive adult. When our lifestyle and choices scar that child, someone should step in whether it be a friend or family member or in this case of true danger, the authorities. My heart goes out to Brittney and her family and especially her children but I cannot see where the judge had any choice but to do what he did. Unfortunately for her, her mistakes are broadcast everywhere. That's the price of celebrity. However, it is good for the children that their mother's neglect and bad choices have not been swept under the rug allowing these kids to pay a horrible price for the rest of their lives. I truly hope that Brittney gets the help she needs to be a good parent and a happier person. We all need a little help now and then. I hope that her pride doesn't get in the way of receiving help.
Wonderful post. Thank you. And although I cannot bring myself to watch or listen to these so-called "celebrities" (our priorities as a country are so screwed up), I do hope that EVERYONE puts the welfare of the children first, foremost and ALWAYS. It's not about Brittney, or Kevin or anyone else. It's about the KIDS!
Thank you again for writing such a well-thought out and well-expressed post.
