As someone with a mentally ill relative, I find this case disturbing. One of the things disturbing is how many people openly speak of allowing the mentally ill to make life altering decisions as if they weren’t mentally ill.
Being able to perform on a stage doesn’t shout out to me that this is someone able to take care of herself. Maybe it is and if that’s the case, she has to convince a psychiatric team that she’s able to be independent.

3xactly. Being on stage, doing the same routine day after day IS NO Showing the ability to handle yourself day to day living. Let alone raise a child. Kids get sick, ask unscripted questions, fall, cut themselves, poop themselves, get stubborn, wont eat their vegtablea. All of this isnt rehearsed!!

I’m gonna say no. It’s the other way around, I understand you have family circumstances. But burden of proof about someone who should have freedom taken from them should not be to prove that they are sane. The burden of proof should be rightly on those who legally desire conservatoship.

I read a little about this. Spears works 7 days a week, 10 hours a day. She is not allowed to turn down any appearance or she is labeled “uncooperative” and threatened with changing/upping medication. She is not allowed to pick her own attorneys or doctor. She’s not allowed artistic freedom, if she objects to a dance move, she is again labeled “uncooperative” and threatened. She earns millions yearly and is, in effect, paying her jailers. Why would they free her?

Being able forced to perform on a stage doesn’t shout out to me that this is someone able to take care of herself. who is anything more than a performing monkey to the people who supposedly have her best interests in mind

Had to fix that
