“Some parents...”
“To me. Spears seems...”
“...her sense of who she is...”
_______________________________
So, you talked to her?
When was that?
Was there a transcript of your interview with her, and
can we read it?
The conservatorship was created at first to control the public relations disaster when her mental health issues first became public but continued in order to protect the income stream from her brand, particularly the revenue from her perfume business.
Jamie Spears did a remarkable job in keeping public relations under control for so long.
Her mental health issues are real and very serious.
Her perfumes have now all but disappeared from the stores.
Her conservators did not “contribute to her craziness”, a truly ignorant thing to say.
Her diagnosed illnesses are well understood, and her behavior is unremarkable and consistent with the diagnosis.
He truly loves her, probably more than anyone else on earth.
Jamie Spears gave her considerable freedom, much more than anyone else would have done, considering how much money was at stake. The failure of the Las Vegas Show ended any hope of rejuvenating her brand. When Free Britney reached critical mass on social media, it was over and the only question was how to manage the end.
Spears, himself made his biggest mistake in his relationship with her boys, particularly a dinner fight he had with Britney and the boys which ended with him following her son to his bedroom and pounding on his door and yelling, which later caused his father, Federline, to insist that he be out of their lives. This was the final break between him and Britney.
Sam Asghari tried to control things but it was just getting too bad.
I do not know what treatments she is on or whether she is tolerating her medications now. I do not know how often her episodes occur nor how they vary in severity as time goes by.
You misunderstood what I was trying to say, and thus I probably didn’t say it well.
First, I said ‘to me’ because I wanted to emphasize that it was just my opinion and that I don’t know the reality of her life. I do know, however, that many parents screw their children’s life up. Not doing that should be the number one emphasis of every parent - IMHO. No one is perfect, and there are no ‘perfect’ parents. That said, there most definitely are defective parents who hurt their children deeply - and it’s not just physical or sexual abuse that does this. Further, those parents tend to be so incredibly narcissistic that they never ever admit doing anything wrong, and blame their children for every problem they have in life. These are not loving or nurturing parents.
Again, I’m not saying Spear’s parents were like that. What I was saying is that when a child never gets feedback from their parents that they are loved and good just for being them, and to the contrary only get love and praise when they ‘achieve’ something, they too often equate their worth in life with their societal stature and achievement.
Maybe she has an organic / genetic mental health issue (bipolar, schizoaffective, or whatever the current DSM has listed these days), and this is the major cause of her behaviors and issues. I have seen a large number of people with mental health / psychiatric issues over the years, and I’ve seen people with schizophrenia who were convinced space ships were beaming thoughts into their brains then become rational / normal after receiving anti-psychotic medications. Organic / genetic / brain chemistry-based mental health issues are very real, very sad, and to me just as bad or worse than having a malignancy.
That said, not all mental health issues are organic / genetic, just like not all are caused by life experiences / exposures. Then there are the epigenetic contributors (e.g. changes in DNA methylation patterns and thus gene expression based upon life exposures) that link life exposures to mental - health related gene expression.
The bottom Iine is that mental health is very complex, perhaps more complex than any other area of human health, and can reflect both nature and nurture. Given that we can’t also change nature, it’s important that we address those issues that are defined by nurture.
