Well damn - he must have taken it down - at any rate, I can't get it. Can anyone summarize?

I have a son who is mentally ill and trust me, sometimes I'd LOVE to put up a whole-ass missive on social media defending myself and advising everyone me and my ex husband are NOT the demons he occasionally portrays us to be when he's on one of his rants. He reminds me a lot of Britney in this way, actually. Can't let anything go, no matter how much therapy** and regardless of how much change we eventually made as parents.
**and before anyone reminds me - yes Britney likely has reason to be pissed. She needed some kind of mental care, clearly but that conservatorship seemed all kinds of sketchy in later years.
But back to my kid. The bottom line is, I just don't post. What purpose would it serve? Granted, my kid is 32 now so it's a bit different but I get where those kids would feel like they want to lash out because, let's face it, I'm sure they're fucking embarrassed. I would be too. The twirling and the nudes and the dead-eyed stares and the nonstop, barely readable rants? Fuck no - I get it. And I've been on the receiving end of it too. It sucks.
But KF oughta know better. My silence is the most powerful defense there is and should be KF's too.

JFC, I just read her instagram missive about her sons being "hateful." That's what the videos were in response to. This still all needed to be private and not dealt with online, just like she said herself...before she proceeded to deal with it online.
This is partly what the conservatorship was for, to keep all this shit from being public. Because God forbid she listen to a PR professional and keep private shit private. She's messy AF and can't articulate her thoughts very clearly. She's a walking PSA to stay in school, kids.

She's messy AF and can't articulate her thoughts very clearly. She's a walking PSA to stay in school, kids. The stay in school part is key. She realistically probably has the education of an 8th grader. Worst of all, she has no other knowledge, interest, or skills to be anything other than "It's Britney, bitch!" That was stupid to release the videos, and they also have no context. Everybody's mom has argued with them about something that would make no sense outside of their household. What was weird to me was when she said they needed to start treating her like a woman ("I am a woman!")...as opposed to "cool" mom or "friend" mom? It's an odd moment to me.

That's what I mean about her lack of articulation. She probably means "woman" in some feminist sense, as in, a person worthy of your respect. But both her speech and writing reflects her lack of education, or ability to form coherent thoughts/words. And it makes her seem especially unhinged when she's angry.

Where I am from respect is earned.
And shit I am SO glad my parents did not record me as a teen.
I don't think that it should have been released but it must be pretty shit that Brit-Brit is carrying on like butter wouldnt melt & she is all butt hurt by her sons...
If this behaviour is regular fair point.

Britney shouldn't have posted what she did on Instagram. Federline shouldn't have posted the videos. The boys may be brats, I don't know, but I can see how having Britney as a mom would be difficult.

Britney Spears recalls sons being ‘hateful’ at her house amid K-Fed feud Britney Spears accused her teenage sons of acting “hateful” during visits to her house. “I know that teenagers are just hard to deal with … but COME ON,” the Grammy winner, 40, wrote in a lengthy Instagram post Wednesday of Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15. “ There’s being rude then there’s being HATEFUL,” she continued. “ They would visit me, walk in the door, go straight to their room and lock the door !!! “The MONITOR would tell me that he just likes to be in his room,” Spears added. “I’m like why come visit me if they don’t even visit me !!!”

She says she knows teens are difficult, but then she obviously takes it personally and is mad that they just want to stay in their rooms.
Like, that is all normal. It's even normal to be miffed about it as a parent, though her emotional immaturity goes beyond miffed. She puts it out on social media like Insta is her therapist. But it's not her therapist, therapy might help her take responsibility for her own actions, and see others' POV. Insta is mostly her followers agreeing with her, telling her she's always right, always the victim.

Exactly beeyotch. On top of all of that, she has no idea what being a "normal" teen entails, so she doesn't even have that experience or empathy to build on. I agree about the "woman" thing, too. It makes her sound really immature as does accusing the boys of "hateful" behavior. While it's normal for boys to want to do their own things, it seems like she makes them feel uncomfortable. Regardless, I don't know what it would take for her to get away from the #FreeBritney sycophants and back to a therapist.

Why was tmz given these recordings? Obviously by someone who is trying to use her sons against her. I feel this is just part of a smear campaign. That family are so messy they have no qualms about involving yet another generation. FedEx said the boys were embarrassed...how the fk does this latest round of publicity make them feel? ? He doesn't need to be giving interviews.

I don't think anyone "gave" tmz the recordings. They were in the public domain and they probably made copies in case Kevin took them down. Which of course, he did.
Britney wouldn't know irony if it bit her in the ass. She gets mad at Kevin for posting those videos and not keeping things private. But posting on instagram that her boys are hateful is ok. And I'm sure that will encourage them to want to see her more.
This shit happens a lot in divorce once the kids are teenagers. They have their own friends, and life, and other activities they want to do on the weekends. Having to spend time with the non-custodial parent on weekends interferes with that.

Where I am from respect is earned. This. Anytime I hear a parent state "you will respect me" to their kids or "they will respect me" when talking about their kids my mind immediately corrects it to "they will fear me".

Was looking at tmz and there are a couple more stories--statements from their respective attorneys.
Kfed's attorney says the boys haven't seen her for 5 months and she has sent them hateful texts. Also that Kevin is not comfortable with the boys going there unsupervised. Brit's attorney just rambled on about her being bullied and threatening legal action.
So, as I suspected, Kevin was fine when there was a monitor there, but since the conservatorship ended, he is leery. If they haven't seen her in 5 months, that would be around the time she was set free. Also, as a parent, what are you supposed to do if your kids come to you and say they are uncomfortable and don't want to go there anymore?
