Britney's Love-Hate Relationship with Dad

Britney Spears has expressed hatred toward her father -- that, we know. Yet sources say today she asked that both of her parents be at her bedside. And that could create problems for the Trope firm when they go to court tomorrow and ask for Jamie to be 86'd as conservator.

Britney is bipolar and has wild mood swings. She can love someone and hate them in the same hour. So just because she told Trope lawyers this weekend that she hates her dad -- it may not be enough to convince the Commish.

But here's what Trope may have going for them. Britney has expressed deep animus toward her dad for a long time and to many people. We know the Trope firm is attempting to put together an arsenal of witnesses who will try and convince the Commissioner that the hatred and distrust toward her dad is consistent over time.

18. Isn't this the same law firm that was handling Anna Nicole Smith? Look what happened to Anna so now they are trying to do the same thing to Britney. I knew this was trouble when I read she had obtained Troupe Law firm. All they do is try to destroy the reputation of the parents so they can get to the money.

THIS DAD NEEDS TO STAY SO GET RID OF THESE SLIMY LAWYERS WHO ARE CONNECTED TO RON RALE & HOWARD K. STERN.

19. WE WILL BELIVE THIS WHEN WE SEE IT.

FEB 4TH WAS IN ANY CASE A DAY T&T WAS GOING TO COURT FOR BRITNEY'S CUSTODY CASE.
So there is noo reason to assume otherwise.
FEB 4TH WAS ALSO THE DAY JAMIE WOULD FIND OUT IF HIS CONSERVATORSHIP GETS EXTENDED.

Since Britney's stay is extended for 14days the court will probably grant an extention for conservatorship, and Jamie MUST have good evidence on his side.
The only thing T&T can do is get it to be someone neutral - like another lawyer.

NOT MUCH WILL CHANGE until Britney's final diagnosis.
Which I bet is just sleeping pills and no Redbull.!!!!!!!

20. Look here, folks. The Britard was married for less than 24 hours once. We have known the obvious for so long that it is time to let her make her own bed and drown in her own world. GO TMZ, and all the paps that should not for one second let up. If she can make millions from such little talent on the spotlight, it is her payday earned to have the Pap machine on her like a Pap smear.
The kids will likely end up growing up rather normal. I bet my life on it! Feel no sympathy for them. They are resilient and will be fine.

21. She isn't crazy, she is nothing but a spoiled and selfish brat who doesn't want to be told what to do! Her trashy, crazy behavior is so typical of white trash. I just hope that she never gets full custody of her kids, no matter what. Can you imagine how those children are going to be ridiculed someday because of their mother? Kids can be very cruel and they will be terrorized in school because of all of the horrible and embarrassing things she has done. I'm sure they will thank her someday for ruining their lives! If she ever does get custody of those children, they can look forward to having parents forbid their child to be friends with them because of their mother (it doesn't matter if she cleans up her act). I know I would never expose my child to someone like that! Whether that person has changed or not, I wouldn't take the chance.

22. #14 Posted at 8:06PM on Feb 3rd 2008 : I understand you are probably one of Britney's really young fans who is in denial that your idol has a mental illness. She's PLAYED people really well? Wow, if you really believe that, then you need to be her roommate.

23. Her "hate" of her father only happened after she started to go downhill. The man did give her away when she married the leech. Though I see no harm in a neutral third party, or perhaps her bother but T&T should have no say. They wanted to dump her just recently. I can't imagine that not coming up.

24. How does she know who she likes and who she doesn't, she doesn't even know what country she is from. Almost every decision she has made lately seems to be bad ones. Do you think they will really pay any attention to her opinion of things. She just needs help righ now. Move out of California first off!

25. Read this you Trope and Trope bastards! Get your nasty, fat fingers out of Britney's bank account. You are pathetic for taking advantage of an impaired person. How about this? Why don't you provide TMZ (or CNN or FOX) with accounting records of exactly how much money you have pilfered "protecting Britney" for the last three years? I would love to see how many MILLIONS you have sucked out of this poor girl. Of course you don't want her take-no-prisoners father in control! You are protecting your firm's biggest asset. I don't trust ANYONE who has been in her life in the last 3 or 4 years. These people are blood-sucking leeches.

26. WHEN has it been officially announced by Britney's doctor that she has bipolar disorder

-----

WHY WOULD IT? Are you dumb? There are laws against that type of thing. Even Britney Spears has rights. Her doctor isn't going to do a press conference to announce the results of tests. You can't stay in a MENTAL HOSPITAL for the time she has unless there is something wrong with you.

27. Ok, this is my last post. I'm no fan of Britney nor her behavior in the past couple of years, however, I do believe she has the bi disorder and needs to stay for the whole 2 weeks. Her father and the respected attorney needs to stay as conservators until she is capable, whether she likes her dad or not.

I really hope this girl gets better. She is very talented, I'll admit it and she is a mother who needs to be in her children's life. For her children's sake, I hope she gets better and has the desire to get better. I also hope she re-establishes relationships with her label, her management (not Sam) and most importantly, her parents. They are the ones who will ultimately be there for her because they truly love her.

I'm just curious that once she's out of the hospital and in her right mind, hopefully, if she will give Adnan and Sam the time of day. We will just have to wait and see. If she does hang with them, then I will be very worried for her. The paps also need to lay off her, but the sad thing is, more will be around her to see if there are any changes. She will be hounded. Paps laws need to be passed in CA.

28. Katherine, shame on you.... That was horrible and you obviously are a horrible person if you can say things like that without a shred of evidence or regret.

What a loser you are.

Her dad is only doing what needs to be done. Reign her in before she's the next accidental Overdose or something even worse.

29. Troupe and Troupe must have an outstanding BILL that has to be paid. The tried to dump Britney not long ago. They should have sent an employee to pick Britney up for every court hearing. All they have done is cost Britney money and to lose her children. FIRE Troupe and Troupe papa Spears. Let them represent oSAMa .

30. Who does Trope and Trope suggest be her conservator? Arent they the same attnys who wanted to dump her because the was NO COMMUNICATION between them and Brit? So how do they even claim to know what she wants?
