“Mental Health.” Pshaw! She’s got morality problems not “mental health” problems.

At least she won’t take her two boys with her to the “dead end”.

Ya think she's another Dana Plato in the making?

Bread and circuses.

Best wishes to Ms. Spears. Hope she finds something that makes her happy and fulfills her.

I wonder if parents who let their pre and early teen daughters go see her concerts have any regrets now.

Probably not.

I know what you mean...she’s been tossed into the entertainment limelight that even an adult has trouble with at her early age. She’s never had the proper upbringing to instill values and common sense. How can she even begin to do that with her own kids?...

Probably a well founded fear.

The article assigns nearly every possible analysis to the girl, but ‘suicide watch’ wasn’t mentioned. Probably should be. Sad deal.

Dr. Phil did huge damage to his stock in the last week and could probably use an intervention as well.

“Bread and circuses”

That’s about it. These types are always on the “leading edge” and each step requires a further one until the absolute end of the limb is reached. Expectations and reality colliding in the Celebritized World of Media.

Does anyone else find it ironic that MTV and its pushed libertine attitudes driven into children constantly, and that helped raise Spears to fame is the source of this report on her fall?????

Yet they never question their own culpability in the situation.... Gotta love it.

Its like when BET wants to do a report on all the problems of the inner city particularly of black men, but conviently leave out any discussion of or criticizing of itself for its perpetual promotion of irresponsibility and misogyny it airs in the form of “rap” videos 8 or more hours a day.

Completely agree. This is obviously an extreme example of repercussions gone-wild, but you just can’t live that way and expect to be normal and healthy, let alone happy. Maybe in the very short run, but not the long term.
