Britney's Dad to Stay in Charge

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

That's what the courts are saying about Britney Spears, since her dad Jamie has taken over conservatorship. A judge ruled yesterday that Brit's dad's role as co-conservator role was working and granted her brother, Brian, influence over the pop star's day-to-day spending.

Britney has definitely been better since her family stepped in. We haven't seen her driving aimlessly around town, stopping in gas stations every five minutes, who gallivanting from one hotel to another. And Sam Lufti hasn't been around for weeks -- which is an excellent sign. Instead, Britney is doing all low-key stuff, like shopping with her mom, and teaching kids to dance.

"She's getting proper medical care and has professional security. The chaos has been removed from the situation," a legal source told People.com.

Things are looking up with Jamie Spears at the wheel of the bus that was formerly headed to Disastertown. Let's hope they stay on the right side of the road.

Britney Spears' first husband, Jason Allen Alexander, says that the troubled pop star doesn't really want custody of her own kids after all.

"She wants to see them, but she doesn't want to be a full-time mom," Alexander told In Touch Magazine in a recent interview. "She said it doesn't matter if she doesn't get them back full time, and that she can always have other kids later on."

Though he said that Spears confessed that she "misses" her kids, Alexander said that the singer would not be devastated if she permanently lost custody of her two toddlers to her other ex-husband. Kevin Federline currently has full custody of sons Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden, 1, and Britney has no visitation rights.

Alexander said the two childhood friends from Louisiana renewed their friendship after Spears made a call around Christmas last year.

WOW !!! Why have kids in the first place if she wasn't ready to be a MOTHER to them...and to say she can have more kids later on is like saying kids can be replaced...How SAD, how so very SAD !!! It's better her EX has the kids...at least he seems to have set his priorities.

I guess partying, drinking, & spending money aimlessly...and I should add, picking up Bums is more important to her.

I am glad she is getting better & I do hope for her sake her health continues to improve BUT still sadden at her lack of caring to be a mom...afterall, did she not state she want to be a mother.

Poor confused child...maybe the kids are better off with their Dad !

Her family should have been with her all the time... then she would not be facing chain of problems....start from marrying the WRONG MAN ...should only marry a RIGHT MAN who inspire her to be normal and good person. When a woman regret her marriage...she may disregard for the children.

Tell her family never to leave her alone managing her life ... everyone needs family, relatives and good friends ... then life would be beautiful, meaningful and exciting. How can one celebrate life... Christmas... Valentine ...New Year...Birthdays etc if one dont have good people around to socialise to share to tell to be excite with. So Parents and Siblings of Britney ...DONT LEAVE HER ALONE ...BE INSIDE HER LIFE ... if she get into hot soup ... you all to blame.

Sometimes a girl just needs her Dad. It doesn't matter how old you are - that is just the fact. This is awesome news and let's hope that it continues. In order for Britney to be a good anything - she needs to be good to herself first and it looks like Jamie is teaching her that.

finally!!! it looks that her smile is true and she is happy. i feel so bad for her... her and that poor excuse of a husband got married too fast... he had to have done something to her. she was perfectly fine till she met him. i just hope she gets better and realizes that her kids should come first. she deserves to be happy and just seeing her with her kids she looks very happy. way to go brit... keep on going up the ladder.....

Roy - If only it was that easy...your family stopping you from marrying the wrong man.

Unfortunately you usually don't realise they are the wrong one until it's too late. I got married to a man who I thought I'd be with for the rest of my life, to realise (after 13years of good and bad) that he was most definitely the wrong one. It took me all that time to decide that he was wrong for me. My family couldn't have made that decision for me, I had to find it out myself!! I was just lucky that they were there for me when I needed them. That's what you need from your family and friends...support and love. They can't make every decision for you. You'd end up resenting them in the long run.

As for disregarding children if there is regret about the marriage....I have a child from my failed marriage, whom I love dearly. As much as I regret ever marrying his father I don't regret ever having my son, not for one second! That was the one good thing that came out of that relationship. I think that if anyone felt that way towards their kids just because of a relationship break down, then they're not cut out to be a parent in the first place. After all it's not the kids fault. They are the innocent!!
