NEW YORK - Britney Spears stumbled outside a Manhattan hotel, nearly dropping her 8-month-old son and further fueling the ever-growing media scrutiny of her parenting skills.
In photos splashed across the front page and inside the New York Post on Friday, the 24-year-old pop star is shown exiting The Ritz-Carlton hotel with Sean Preston in one hand and a glass in the other.
As her bodyguards walked Spears to her car, she stumbled — her long pants apparently getting tangled in her open-toed shoes — and bent low as Sean Preston's head flung backward, knocking off his orange hat.

Good thing they don't follow every parent around and take pictures of every bad moment that we have.
she stubbed her toe to right
Stumbling is one thing (unless that glass contained alcohol)but driving with the baby in her arms and having his car seat secured incorrectly are totally another. It's Preston and his soon-to-be new sibling are the ones who need the body guard.
Britney proves that while not all blondes are dumb, some blondes are really dumb.
This should be in breaking news.
This kinda ticks me off too, even though i couldn't care less about Britney. I guess I just think it is bad to falsely accuse people of being bad parents like the media is trying.
1. Car seat - I've noticed that most articles say "some organization recommend rear-facing". Well, which is it? Anyway, I've noticed that the majority of people around town with babies have front facing car seats.
2. Fall from high chair - from what I read this was an equipment malfunction
3. Trip - umm people trip, you know. It happens.
She's white trash. I can't imagine that she is a good mother.
No kidding. In today's feel good, pussyfied world, there would be a lot of parents in jail and a lot of kids in foster care.
Personally, I think the girl is as dumb as a box of rocks, hooking up with the total loser that she did (but we all saw the same scenario in HS, pretty girl dates a 'bad boy' type that treats her like dirt.)
Sumbling is the worst form of child abuse. I say give the baby to a good mother, like Angelina Jolie.
What is keeping that dang comet?
4. Singing to her Baby. Now how do you explain away that kind of abuse?
The person who installed our car seat told me that most car seats are not properly installed.
It happened to my oldest daughter when she was about this child's age. She was buckled in properly and I removed the tray to get her out and she leaned forward as soon as I did. The buckle gave way and Pow, she landed right on her head on the kitchen floor. I had a complete meltdown and checked that child's pupils and constantly poked at her every time she even hinted at napping for two straight days. Accidents happen.
This is news? Ooohhh Britney "Almost drops her baby!".
Probably just down the same street, some hobo died of hunger, but somehow, "Sean Preston" ALMOST falling is newsworthy.
Even BLEACHED blondes?
