Daddy Spears: It's Hard Dang Work Being Me

91. I agree he should get paid, she got herself into a mess and hes correcting it and making sure she dosnt fall back in her old ways, leave the guy alone.
imagine the crap he puts up with, shes made a improvement with thanks to her dad so hell ya he should get paid, its not his fault she needs her own babysitter, if she behaved correctly none of this would have happened...

93. Oh please. He's not a father. He's a babysitter. He waited til the last possible minute to step in. She was committed twice before her family noticed.

94. Someone tell me what would jamie do if Brittany didn't have the money to pay him $2500.00 per week to TAKE CARE OF HIS OWN DAUGHTER! Would he simply not do it?? I think it's bulls**t that a father is getting paid to do this!

95. so when he gets old is he going to pay britt. to take care of him when he no longer can do it. i thought any decent parent would help a child out in crisis and not expect to be paid when he gets old britt. stick his as in a state run nursing home if he wont pay.

Kudos to him. He's doing a good job and Britney and her sons are obviously benefiting from his presence.

97. At least one of her parents isn't a total moron.

98. I think he's underpaid!
She needed courts, mental wards and her dad to keep her from killing herself.
That must be a job from hell.
Well done Jamie!

99. He's the right man for the job. Clearly with all these losers in her life she's trying to fill a void that was left there by an absent father, so the only person who can stand up and help her is her father. Bravo to him for finally booting all those losers and being the only man in her life who can actually help her.

100. Wow, actually being a father!

101. Not only has he given up his job but he is also not paying into social security or any other retirement plan he may have if he is not being paid. He's not a young man and he is taking care of Brit for an indefinite period of time. He has to provide for his own retirement. He might also still be paying on his own home (mortgage or rent?) because the court can change the arrangement at any time and he's out in the street. This is a normal arrangement. Children get paid all the time for settling their parents estates and other such things. Looks like this may be a long term arrangement.

102. I can't believe the number of spoiled little brats that post to this site. The woman is 27 years old, been married twice, and has 2 kids. She is not a child. She has millions of dollars and his pay is absolutely nothing to her. Why should he give up his entire life to take care of her. They should have just committed her to an institute because he wasn't in a position to work for her 24/7 for free? So, now you all think he's having fun? Grow up, taking care of your children is not fun, especially when they are adults. None of your parents would do what he is doing because they have to work and you don't have the money to pay them. I for one wouldn't want to be responsible for my parents living the rest of their lives in poverty because of me and would gladly pay someone to take care of me if I had the money.

103. $10,000 a month! Of course he should cook supper and talk to her. He's done a good job. But he could have done it earlier, when she was a child.

104. He deserves it. I can only imagine how much work its taking to get her back on track. If she was at Rehab, she'd be paying twice as much and not even get the same care. He quit his job but he still has bills and wants to retire some day. His daughter can afford it. I expect my children to take care of me like I take care of them when I'm older. There's nothing wrong with this.

105.

This is a drop in the bucket to Brit. Imagine how many more millions she would have blew through by now if he hadn't taken control. He deserves every penny for giving up his life to babysit his over 25 grownass daughter 24/7 indefinitely.
