She is not a "wacko". She is ill and needs compassion. As I am very familiar with mental illness, I know she is in desperate need of help, which unfortunately, she will not accept until there is an unfortunate incident that forces her to be hospitalized against her will. This is the age when a long-standing problem blooms into a full-fledged horrible mental illness and it sure is not temporary. The stress, trials and tribulations of being out of work and having those children snatched from her, were sufficient cause to bring Brtiney to this current situation. Britney needs compassion and understanding. I certainly hope the guy she is hanging around with has some compassion and is not in this just so he can write a book on her. Let's be kind to her. Many people have had to suffer as a result of a loved one's losing touch with reality. It is an unforgiving illness, and anyone who does not recognize it, deserve to suffer from it themselves.

Let’s be kind to her. Many people have had to suffer as a result of a loved one’s losing touch with reality. It is an unforgiving illness, and anyone who does not recognize it, deserve to suffer from it themselves.

You'll notice they are trying to destroy Britney now. All they can do is take someones life and destroy it. She looks very happy finally with her pap boyfriend and it does seem that he is able to elude the paps. She has not been splashed all over certain entertainment sites. They did show her in what they say was her wedding dress or something to that effect. I really doubt that. Even if she did it doesn't matter for the public to know this information. She is an amazing talent and I really don't want her to stop making albums.The comments on the board about Howard or Britney are horrible. I just don't know how so much hate can be spewed. I think some posters just post over and over again with different names. I tried to make a positive comment about Britney and they didn't publish it. I wish you had more time Art to write more articules, I love your style. You are not judgemental or nasty.Keep up the good work. May hope follow those that have become blasted on TMZ.

Whatever problem she had, it has been compounded many times over by the additional pressures that keep piling up. She is not to blame for running over the foot of those people stalking her. Her car was surrounded on every side and she was still expected to drive safely. Who could? I thought she had a bodyguard, but from the looks of everything that has happened, nobody is guarding her. She is brave and somewhat foolish for driving herself around. I feel so sorry for Britney.

She was a human grieving a horrible loss,she was trying to be a survivor,she was trying to feel ok again. Unfortunatly that never happened. I seen a recap on ABC about deaths of 2007 and of all of them her pictures and smile broke my heart. Of course that is just me because I just loved her. It was hard to see her beautiful face along with that sad music and have it hit me in the stomach again. She should have made a "trooper" list for what she has endured and overcame and kept on going no matter how imperfectly she may have done it,she did it and god simply called her home...too soon of course in our eyes..I just know she is so happy now and it had to be this way no matter how much it hurts. She was a great human and I am glad she was not on the list I think the list would have done injustice to what was reallly going on inside her soul...even the word "meltdown" does not work for what happen to Anna in life and death.

She wouldn't know real love if it b**ch slapped her in the face. She seems to have no mind of her own and if she does, it's damaged beyond control. I don't care what she says, Howard is the man!

Or so that is how I see it.

I believe they started getting very serious concerning those laws about the time Evis died. Mr. Stern forgot he could not make another Marilyn Monroe or Elvis through Anna and if anything he needs to get off his make believe cloud and face the real ramifications of what he has allowed himself to do or become for the sake of money that does not belong to him or his family and stop trying to use that baby to further the mess he has helped make.
