Hollywoodlife.com says Britney Spears’s father, Jamie, is accusing her of running a social media smear campaign against him. He wants her deposed to answer claims that she had to give eight vials of blood for medical treatment, was forced to participate in therapy, and was denied pain medication.
Britney's lawyer, Matthew Rosengart, says, “Mr. Spears, who was ignominiously suspended by the Court in September, continues to disgrace himself, especially through this most-recent foolish and ill-advised filing, which is riddled with errors and falsehoods, as he himself knows. In addition to trying to bully his own daughter, he is now pathetically reduced to trying to intimidate her, while abusing the legal process and running and hiding from his own deposition. Anyone else would be ashamed by these tactics, but he and his representatives are truly shameless. In terms of ‘impugning his character,’ Mr. Spears did that to himself long ago.”

When you live with something for two years, and you do nothing else, I think that you can’t help it. It becomes a fiber of your being.”

Dear Fonseca
Things are tough with the economy so we have asked our teenage sons to get jobs so they can contribute to the household. My wife and I are already working 60+ hours a week to make ends meet. My parents think we are cruel and mean for making the kids work. I disagree. It'll toughen them up and teach them responsibility. Is it wrong that my wife and I are making the boys work and contribute to the household at such a young age.
