Britney Spears vs. Kevin Federline

Custody Trial

July 1. 2008

Britney Spears

Pop singer Britney Spears and her ex-husband Kevin Federline are set to square off in court over the custody of their two children. I hope Kevin Federline retains custody, as Spears is still mentally ill.

Recently, her dad got her life in order, but the minute he steps out of the picture, what's going to happen. If she forgets to or does not take her medication, she will be back to the same mentally ill conduct that saw her endanger her children, lose custody and get sent to hospital psych wards on repeat visits.

 The type of mental illness she has people generally don't get well from, but doctors control the symptoms and psychosis with medication. For the sake of her children, custody should remain with her ex-husband and she should get good visitation rights with supervision.

Kaplan added that his client is seeking sole physical and legal custody of sons Preston, 2 1/2, and Jayden, 1 1/2, and wants Spears to continue her current visitation terms.

The singer has been spending three days a week with the boys and was recently granted overnight privileges.

"If the existing arrangement was acceptable to both parties ... we wouldn't have to go to trial," Kaplan said. "But that didn't happen."
