Anna's Mom: "Oh yeah, it'll get ugly"

46. Yeah, everyone. Let's put the blame where it was rooted from. Let's charge her mom for Anna's death. We all try to live up to our mother's expectations. Imagine if that was your mother, raising you in a "trailer park" mentality. I lived through it and came out a smarter person, realizing my mom and her family were not role-models. Some people don't. Some people try to drink and medicate their past away. Poor Anna. She was doing her best, better than most of us, to separate herself from that miserable excuse for a "Family" and it got the best of her. Shame, shame low-class haters.

47. I think her Mother is just disgusted with her daughter's years and years of drug abuse and is very mad she threw her life away. It can be very frustrating to have an addict in the family that won't get help and you have to sit and watch them slowly kill themselves. Maybe she cut herself off from her because it was too painful to watch her self-destruct.

48. I don't know what to say this is sad beyond comprehension. I think that my eyes have just opened up a bit and that I have gained a new-found respect for Anna as far as her mothering skills are concerned- clearly she developed those on her own and not through her own mother's love, guidance and care.... say what you will about Anna, her lifestyle, her over-extravagance, etc... there is one thing you cannot deny her and that is whether or not we would agree with the way she chose to live her life- she clearly loved & adored her son Daniel and that is a testament to the way a mother SHOULD care for, love, defend, protect, etc... their child... not anywhere near what her own ( and I use this term loosely) "mother" is doing to her memory right now...

49. This is such a sad situation. There was a lot of turmoil between Anna and her mother, and the other half of the story can no longer speak. The mother was on a daytime talk show not too long ago and she spoke on why she feels the way she does, but that is not remembered. The mother raised Daniel for years and then one day Anna picked him up and ended the relationship. If her mother was that bad, why would she leave her pride and joy behind with her. There was such a tight bond between grandson and grandmother but she found out about his death the same way the rest of the world did, on the news. And I am not saying this to lay blame on either party, but just to state the facts. The mother made a few important remarks on that show also in reference to the relationship between Anna and Howard K. Stern, why now did they decide to have a baby(if he is indeed the father) after all of these years of dealing with eachother was one of them. I truly believe that Howard K. Stern has EVERYTHING to do with Anna and Daniel's deaths, it's not just coincidence that placed him at both death scenes.

50. Now would have been a good time to grieve in private over the loss of a loved one, not go on television and comment on the faults of the dead person. Where is the compassion? This is all so very sad. Anna Nicole Smith was a human being and I feel sorry that not much of this countrys media portrays her as such.

51. Why is everyone bashing her Mom? Anna Nicole was no saint. She was a drug addicted, gold digger. Sorry to bash the dearly departed but it's the truth. She let her own son become a drug addict as well! You can't blame her mother for being upset. You all need to face the facts.

52. Everyone made fun of Anna when she was alive now she's dead and you start making fun of her mother? Are you going to start making fun of the baby next? Bunch of sick a**holes!

53. I think she is angling to be the next trimspa spokesperson. The best spokesperson she should be is for Moms are crap.

Lady this is your daughter. Maybe if you were a good mother she wouldn't have made such tragic mistakes. It seems like she was running from you. She always had her son next to her and included him in everything. Why didn't she do that with you? Actions speek volume. Maybe she wasn't the brightest person in the world, but she seemed to be an expert about her mom.

Don't let this baby go near her.

She was on ET one night blasting her mom. If I told my mom to go to hell she would be so hurt, but if I needed her in the next breath she would be there for me. That's what a mom is unconditional love good, bad and in death family. Your not a good mom.

I have two kids and would die for them. Anna lost her son (I don't care if she died of a drug overdose or not, she died of a broken heart) that is every parents hell on earth) Daniel, my heart broke for her that day. No one should judge this woman, walk a minute in her shoes with the loss of a child. Let her rest in peace and pray for her baby.

This mom is so pathetic not even a tear. Remember one day you too will meet your maker what will people say when she is gone.

54. While it is obvious that this woman is a shameless attention grabber and truly lousy mother, it is also painfully obvious that many of you posters should also be ashamed of yourselves. Her size has nothing to do with her character. You know nothing about this woman's personal history, about her health, physical or mental. You are assuming that her weight is her own fault and tying it in to her undesirable personality traits. This is grossly unfair not only to her (and being the demonstrably compassionate people that you are, I do realize I am spitting in the wind trying to rouse any feelings of fairness or even logic in you...) but to countless other people who have physical/mental medical issues and are overweight because of them. Or even people who don't have such issues, just have a hard time keeping the weight off for whatever reason: addictions, slow metabolism, ignorance of or lack of access to good dietary staples. At any rate, it is none of your business and not yours to judge and pass nasty, hurtful comments on. Walk a mile in their shoes before you make yourself judge and jury over something you know little to nothing about. And, even when you have done so, try to remember that it's a lot harder to be compassionate and non-judgmental than to be nasty and superficial. But it's a lot more rewarding too. Think before you speak, people. It’s so easy to hurt others with careless nasty comments. And for what? Does it make you feel superior? Wiser? Better? Does it accomplish anything positive at all whatsoever in your own lives or in others’? Do you really get a feeling of solidarity when you see several others bashing helpless people this way? And if yes, are you so desperate for approval from others that you would perceive this as a positive thing? Does all this make you proud of yourself? Think it through and be more careful next time. Please. There is plenty of pain out there already. The world doesn’t need more carelessness and thoughtlessness.

55. Come on people don't call the Mom fat, ugly, etc......... She was her mother for goodness sake! What went on was between them and who are we to sit around and make accusations on something we know noithing about. It is difficult to maintain a relationship with an addict. Don't throw stones. You all sure got heated under the collar at the folks bashing Anna here so please don't be hypocrites and bash her Mom. GROW UP!

56. After watching this situation for a long period of time I wonder if were watching the future of Britney Spears. The same southern type roots, the drugs and alcohol abuse and the mother that seems to be disconnected from her daughter and isn't helping her make better decisions. All we need now is the hate for the family and Britney to turn on them.

57. It makes me sick that a mother would go on national television and disgrace her daughters memory like this. Anna is dead now. She can't defend herself. No wonder Anna took her son and took off and quit speaking to her mother. Her mom needs to look in the mirror and realize that some of her fault is on her shoulders. Some grieving mother. She wants a piece of the pie and you can bet she is getting paid for these interviews. This woman makes me sick.

58. First off let me say no matter what the age or relationship I had was with my child if something happen to them I would be DEVASTATED, you would have to sedate me! In no way shape or form would I be talking TRASH about my child as Anna's mother is doing. She is a piece of work and a disgrace for a mother (along with Anna's sister who is STILL going release her Anna Bashing book) and it should be quite clear now to everyone why Anna chose not to have a relationship with her "family". If you watched her reality show on T.V. it was very obvious her feelings for her son, she looked like she adored him and was always giving him hugs. For people who criticize and call her a golddigger for marrying a rich old guy - guess what? She is not the first young, beautiful woman to marry a rich old man! From stories I have read about her even her own family said HE pursued her for a couple of years before she even married him. I say more power to her for getting herself and her son away from her "family" who quite honestly are the ones who look like the "golddiggers" they are sick, sick people. As for Howard K. Stern I think he truly did love her and would do anything for her that's why he said he was the father. Whether or not he was a "help" to her no one will ever know. If she was so sick that she had to have a nurse traveling with her then why didnt this nurse or Howard have sense enough to take her to a hospital? It's just such a sad story, with a sad ending and the one who will pay for it all will be her daughter.

59. Her mom's a heartless bitch. How terrible of her. She's obviously seeing the death as a meal t icket and a way to get publicity for herself.

60. Where was this fat bitch when Anna was growing up? She should shut up and go home. She's running off at the mouth about how Howard was all about the money, but she's going to be the first in line with her hand out. She couldn't get on that plane fast enough.
