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.

46. Am I the only one who thinks that Britney is Not , THAT crazy? She may not be making the greatest of choices lately, and apparantly has questionable priorities but does'nt alot of young people? I think she enjoys playing w/ the paps, I think that she gets off on them in more ways than one ( did you see her latest video?), unfortunatley for her childrens sake thats where her priorities lie. This does'nt exactly mean she has a mental disorder and should be put under the control of her father, whom she so called "hates". She is a grown woman.

47. Trope and Trope's track record isn't very good for watching out for their client's best interest, remember Anna Nicole and Ron Rale and Howard K Stern. I shuddered when I found out Britney was going to use them and I shudder now at the thought. I hope you are just reporting BS so you can keep people coming back and that the Trope thing is a fantasy like I hoped that Sam guy was not for real.

48. As it should be:
Finances = blocked for 14 days.
Health = decision with the parents.
Visits = Britney decide.

50. THIS IS SCARY PEOPLE THAT SOME STRANGER CAN COME INTO THE LIFE OF YOUR FAMILY AND WANT TO TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR LIVES. WHAT IS SO GREAT ABOUT THIS O.......... GUY. I AM MUCH SMARTER THAN HE IS. TELLING LIES OR BEING A GOOD MANIPULATOR WILL NOT GET YOU ANY RESPECT FROM ME. YOU SHOULD BE PROSECUTED FOR HARRASMENT AND IT ALSO SHOWS THE ARROGANCE OF THIS GUY. NO SANE PERSON WILL HAVE THIS GUY CLOSE TO THEM . I HAVE NO MONEY AND I DO NOT WANT HIM AROUND ME.

52. I'm so sick and tired of everyone bashing on Britney when she has had a horrible time and it is not her fault. She is NOT on drugs and she is NOT a horrible mother, she has a condition that is totally out of her control and so many of you are so quick to judge her when you have not a clue as to what is going on. Britney is fully aware of her condition now, and wants to get better. Britney knows someone has to take over her affairs for her right now, but it certainly should NOT be her Father. Do you all know why Britney has these feelings of hatred for her Dad? If you did you would understand why she is objecting to his being in control. Also her law firm is now behind her and willing to stay representing her because of her getting the help she needs, and they too finally know the truth as to what has caused this "trainwreck", it is so pathetic that so many people blamed this whole situation on Britney's decisions, when not too many people understand her mental illness and what severe bi-polar is, it is not a choice of Britneys to have this and it is certainly NOT her fault. Leave her alone people, she is not a bad person and does not deserve all these negative comments.

53. #26 NO I'm not DUMB, all the a-holes on this site who believe that Britney has bipolar disorder are. WHEN has it been officially announced that she has it? NEVER, sites like TMZ and x17 keep on posting that she has it and now everyone believes it. Anyone can do what she did and that doesn't make them bipolar. So she drives around a lot, wears a wig and buys coffee a lot? That does NOT make someone BIPOLAR. Whoever started this whole bipolar rumor is NOT her doctor and it has never been RELEASED that she is. I am a woman in my 40s and a degreed professional in psychiatry. I am tired of all these posts about her "not only is is bipolar but SEVERE bipolar". You either have it or you don't and it takes weeks of testing before you can come to any conclusions. She's been so hyped up on Red Bull and caffeine any of her symptoms could be from that as well. People here are so gullible. They believe anything that is printed. WHO first said she was bipolar? Was it Britney's psychiatrist. NO because that information is private. So anyone who says she has it is a LIAR trying to sensationalize things. God people get over yourselves!

54. I agree that Britney's parents have to be in control. But, aren't you the same folks who hate Anna Nicole's Mom? What's the difference here? I felt sorry and continue to feel sorry for her famiy. Anna was so doped up and freakish when one of the entertainment tv mags taped her venomously stating she hated her mom. I don't see the two cases being so far apart.

57. she should decide who is her conservator . IF shes bipolar it doesn't take away her rights. In fact, it begs the question of which parent, if not both, is bipolar as well? Perhaps thats reason enought to know why Britney hates her father, and perhap0s she should be believed.

58. ANONYMOUSIE- Get your facts straight...Jamie has reaped royally from his daughter. A house, Cadillac Escalade plus....hardly saying no to her gifts. Why do so many want to bash, when we should be asking how did this happen and how can we make sure more young performers don't fall inrto the same trap?

59. Sam Lufti is another Howard K. Stern & now his gang & other parent haters swarm in trying to bash the parents. Parents have had enough of these parasites latching onto our sick daughters & feeding them drugs. Mom & Pop Spears fight Sam & T&T with every ounce of strength in your body. This is your daughter & you worked & did without for years to raise your family with hopes that they would be productive adults who could support themselves so give the vultures HELL.

60. Butterfly,
Are you the same person who has been working with Howard K. Stern bashing Virgie Arthur? I can't help but believe Sam is somehow connected to Howard because they are using the same lawyers...Troupe & Troupe. It's strange you've spent years bashing another family & now I see you here doing the same thing to the Spears family.

Are you on the payroll of Howard & Sam?
