Quote From: pinkycarYour post is two things: (a) A contradiction...."no doubt Britney is out of control but to remove her children..." What did you want the judge to do? Wait until she actually hurt the kids in her "out of control" behavior before taking them away to safety?? And (b) ".....taking them away.....not taking a drug and alcohol test".....As a grandparent who has lived this type of behavior from her own daughter, there is a reason she didn't take the test - SHE WOULD HAVE FAILED!! I don't know how many times my own daughter would say "I didn't know, I forgot....blah, blah", only to discover that she had been using the entire time and this was just her latest excuse!! The judge ORDERED her to do these things and SHE DID NOT COMPLY WITH THE COURT'S ORDERS. Ignore the orders does not make this a "broken judicial system", it makes this nothing more than someone who thought they were above the law! This judge obviously saw the children in danger with her behavior and many facts presented in the court room that you/we do not know. How sad that you immediately blame the judicial system and place your belief into a once-pop-star! Until you've walked these shoes, it might be best to sit back and wait for ALL the facts!!
To respone to your very bitter post, it is very apparent that your are very angry with your own situation. But to address what I said in mine, I said that basics that he made his decision, which has been stated on the news, TV etc. There are children that live thru and in horrible situations and C.P.S., the police etc., are brought in the picture but the kids somehow end up back in that home over and over again. (DON'T YOU READ THE PAPER OR WATCH THE NEWS?) Then you see other situations where a hard working single mother runs into bad luch and she looses her children to the system. Every case that goes thru our courts sets a precedent for a case to follow. That is too much power to put out there with a high profile case as this. The two reasons that were stated for the removal of her children was excessive. THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM IS BROKE!! The reason that I can say this is because I worked within the judicial system for 11 years and I saw first hand. I'm sure with her wealth that she has maids, body guards and others in the home around the children and if they were in danger, don't you think someone would have said something before now. This HOLLYWOOD PUBLICITY cases are out of control and it is only hurting the common people that have survive in this world. I too am a grandmother and I am concerned about the world and the system that they are going to have to grow up and live in. GET OUT OF YOUR LITTLE BOX AND LOOK AT THE "BIG PICTURE"! Wonder how well anyone of us would do if our lives were under a magnifying glass as hers is everyday? Would our children be taken away? If so, wonder what the reason would be? GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU!
