Amanda – I’m hearing you!! I’m reading comments from a lot of people who are obviously *not* parents. Being a full-time, stay at home mom is great for some people, but it’s not for everyone, and the jury’s out as to whether it’s best for kids to have the socialisation of a daycare instead, and a happy, fulfilled parent at the end of the day.

And, you know, if she were a dad, would people be all down on her for going to work?? Nope. We’d be all, “awww, he’s spending off hours looking after his kids. Aww, what a great dad, spending all night in hospital at his son’s side.” Then we’d bitch about the mother not being around. Great double standard.

Rhonda, please read your comments again. Are you one of Britney’s relatives? Do you know her personally? All I’m saying is reading whatever you find online as well as in the tabloids does not mean you know a celebrity well. And she IS juggling. What makes you think she’s compromising her boys’ well-being for her career? It just makes me sad when people fawn all over good mothers like Angelina Jolie (love her, by the way) and Jennifer Garner just because they haven’t had any major meltdowns and mess-ups in the past few years. Britney may not have done as spectacular a job as they have, but she IS cleaning up her act so all I’m saying is give the woman a chance. Don’t shoot her down just as she’s steadily making her way up again.

Meh, I no longer care about your opinions Rhonda but it’s your grammar that bothers me now.

sorry Amanda to tell you but everyone has their own opinions and that is what they are….for you to get mad at someone else’s opinion says alot about you. But I’ll say it again, I don’t think she has her priorities straight right now. Being famous has nothing to do with motherhood. There are tons of famous mothers who put their kids first and still balance their careers. It would had been nice to see her focus mainly on her boys and then her career. Like for example for thanksgiving she’ll be out of the country. Yeah you can celebrate a holiday early with your kids but after what they went thru, you shouldn’t want to. Brit is already established and whenever she made her come back her fans would had still been there. She could had started this comeback next year and took the remainder of this year to focus of her boys and getting her comeback together instead of the latter….JMO and if you don’t like it so be it!

Jayen James is only 2 years old, most kids don’t eat allergy causing foods, like peanuts or shellfish ect.until this age. Doctors say not to give kids under the age of 2 these types of food, unless your family has a history of food allergies. So parents don’t know that a child may have a problem, until a reaction does happen. I’m glad Brits little guy is doing ok.
Nothing is as scary as you child beening hurt or sick.

Oh please. Some of you sound as though you know all about balancing motherhood and being insanely famous. Imagine all the scrutiny Brit has had to face, and is still facing. Yes, she messed up, and there’s no denying how badly she messed up too. But don’t go shoving your holier-than-thou ‘I do not think her priorities are straight right now’ ideals on her or anyone else. Why can’t she juggle? She seems to be doing a damn better job now than she did a year ago, so give the girl a break already. Sheesh.

Ticha I see what you are saying and I would balance the both as well….but after being away from her boys for a couple years now because of her “craziness” and drugs she was on(she might had been there physically but not there mentally) she owes it to her boys to take a year and reconnect with them, but the first thing she did before she was granted more visitation with her boys was to restart on her career so no I do not think her priorities are straight right now.

As A Mother I have to say yeah my son is the most important thing in my life but i also can’t leave my career behind .
I want another life too , not just a mother. I’m sure she is trying to balance her life.

F you Nicola.

She took her son to the hospital by herself, stayed with him all the time to comfort him, is doing everything she can to get better and yet you still think she’s a bad mother?

Whatever….

alisa for all you know there could have been some cross contamination, or a slight trace of something that they didnt know about. he’s still young, he could have tried something he’s never had before? many ways this could have happen, i doubt she wouldnt have a clue to what he was allergic too, it was an accident.

How do you not know what foods your child is allergic too?
