Britney Spears Could Lose Custody As Early As Today

First Posted: 03/28/08 03:45 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 01:15 PM ET

Fox News:

Britney Spears could lose custody of her two little kids as early as Monday morning.

This is a real possibility, thanks to crusading Los Angeles attorney Gloria Allred. She's bringing a "secret" witness to court Monday for the custody battle between Spears and ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Forget reports that the "secret" witness doesn't matter or won't be heard. In fact, last week Allred filed a signed declaration from the witness, described only as a man who's had close observation of Spears' behavior with her kids.

Many are using the Spears debacle for their own selfish gain. As a Christian, a webmaster of a single parents site(http://christian-dating-service-plus.com/) and a family court mediator on custody issues for over 24 years, I find it horrifying that nobody is helping this poor girl. It disgusts me that even conservative Christians are bashing her. Where is the love of Christ in all of this. Hypocrites!

There are three pre-conditions required to help someone: they must need help (clearly the case), want help (not clear) and be willing to accept help (not yet).

There is a saying among recovering people: its true that you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink....but you can sure make it thirsty.

Court intervention, through coercion, may prove effective. Frequently, addicts and alcoholics need firm boundries. Part of her problem is that she is surrounded by "enablers" who keep her from experiencing the consequences of her actions. With this family court action, that may be coming to an end.

Worked for me...my wife said to get help or get a laywer.

Gloria Albright is in my opinion more and more nothing but a leech

Absolutely true. She manages to worm her way into every high profile case wanted or not. Having said that Britney should lose physical custody of her kids at least temporarily until she gets help. Everyone should be aware that she has severe mental problems and for MTV to use the situation for ratings is disgusting. Nobody should hire for anything until she gets the help she needs.

Whitney Houston never lost her kids. Why should country pumkin Britney loser hers. She was bashed by the press and I didn't see a thing what should made her lose her kids. Federline just wants child support of a few millions. If I was Britney I take of for Europe right after this court final and would tell the american press to kiss my azz.

California law generally sides with the mother on these matters, crazy crack whore or not. hmm and I said in a prior comment, I wouldn't say anything mean about Britney anymore. Anyway, Britney will not lose her children. Won't happen.

Only the purest of white trash loses her kids only to see them go to dumbell Federline with the big dick, another troglodyte, white trashcan. The kids will grow up to be losers like Kate Hudson's kid whom recently gave up Owen Wilson to drink the smelly balls of DAX-her new, long haired fuck toy. KATE NEEDS guys around her sorry, arrogant ass. Now, Britney is just a slob right out of THE VIEW. An oozing,puss filled blackhead trying to blind us from the light.

Your obsession with the sex lives of celebrities is disturbing, and putting it into writing on this site is annoying. I'm guessing your keyboard is pretty sticky.

If she is doing drugs in front of her children, she is endangering their lives!!

I feel sorry for her but the children obviously arent enough incentive for her to get herself together.

They should be taken away from her, at least, temporarily, for their safety. Then she can get them back when she proves that she has kicked her self-destructive habits and can take proper care of them.

Its pretty ironic that k-fed is considered the responsible parent. Those poor children!!!

I meant that as a criticism of our celebrity obsessed voyeuristic culture, not of her.

It's sad how I felt the need to explain that.

you got it, like piranhas, when they smell blood they begin a feeding frenzy. There is nothing wrong with the woman , except she surrounds herself with a dumb agent and coordinators.She shoud fire the whole lot. And stay out of the lime light of the press for a while.
09:57 AM on 09/17/2007
Nothing wrong with the woman? Out drinking like a fish when she has two small children at home? Running around in public with her ass hanging out cause she thinks it's cool to not wear underwear? Checking in and out of rehab like it's a hotel? Did her dumb agent suggest she shave her damn head? Or attack some-one's car with a, what was it an umbrella?

There are struggling young performers with just as much or more talent who would give anything to be in Brittany's, Linsay's, and other famous morons shoes. They had the world by the ass and made a train wreck for themselves. I thought not taking responsibility for our actions was one of the things we most dislike about conservatives.

Add Britney to that Republican list of idiots.

Who could forget her infamous cameo in F9/11 when she implored we'all should 'just support our president', re. the Iraq war.

Yes it's true the Bush criminal cabal has truly fucked up this country but as long as people like Brit are in the news (whether we like it or not) Brit has my sympathy. She needs help and she needs it badly.

Taking her kids away may make things even worse. I don't know what it will take to get through to her, but one can only hope it happens soon and she gets back on track. I think the men in her life have let her down time after time. K-Fucked up was the worst thing that could have ever happened to her. His asshole ways only made her unhappy as much as she wanted to be happy.

I feel sorry for her. Money and fame have only made her life worse.

This unfortunate [yet wealthy] woman is in need of a lot of help from people who really care about her as a person. She may not be a good mother right now, but contact with her children can help her. The Britney Show has become very depressing, but I'm still hoping for the happy ending.

there are plenty of mothers out there that are many more times worse than Britney. She had a bad rap from the press. I don't see Michael Jackson losing his kids. If I was her, I would take of for Europe , at least the UK and would tell the press to kiss my big fat azz

For some reason I caught the last few minutes of Spin Beck the other day. Here was this Moron self proclaimed Christian and staunch republican media thug laughing his ass off on public television over that youtube video or the person {male/female?] who obviously has some kind of mental problem, crying over the treatment of Brittany. A great example of your compassionate republican. Why dont he take a special ed class out and publicly laugh at them while he is at it. Or maybe he could go kick a few kids in wheelchairs out into traffic.
Its one thing to chuckle over something like this video in private or amongst your friends, even though it shows your an ass, but at least you keep it among your and your friends, who are probably assholes as well. but to do this publicly??? It really shows what people like Spin Beck are made of.

I like Glen Beck and maybe we should be laughing/making fun of the idiots of the world. I quit watching Fox news because I got tired of the Brittany and the Anna Nicole stories. I don't mind a blurb but when it is the lead story for weeks, then I will get my news on the net. Why can't Fox concentrate on real news stories?

Glenn Beck is a self-righteous asshole.

Well, I noticed CNN homepage all day yesterday had top story of OJ Simpson. That's not much better than talking about Britney Spears, IMO
