With her album being rushed out earlier than expected, Britney wants to move things along more quickly with getting her boys back too. Only a week after being granted monitored visitation rights with SP and JJ, Brit is expected in court this morning with her lawyers to ask if her boys can spend the night at her house. Kevin's lawyer says says Federline will appeal the motion.
This will be the first time that Britney herself will appear in court in this ongoing custody battle, which is definitely a step in the right direction after missing last week's hearing. She's also passed multiple drug tests (not to mention stayed out of the clubs for a little while), so maybe a week without her kids was enough to snap her into shape. That being said, her family has been let down by her enough times it wouldn't be surprising if the judge isn't ready to trust her yet.
What do you think — should Britney be granted overnight privileges with her boys?

she must be missing her kids, but she has to earn still those privileges. i feel sorry about her...
1i don't think she need just yet to get her kids even if it for a night
2There're some terrible mothers all around the world or in the US, but because it's Britney, everything is focused on her life and I'm sure that all this thing has a influence on the court!!
3She's a young mom, she's certainely in a nig depression but she's not a brug or alcohol addict!
I'm still very surprised about the 1st court decision: This Kevin guy already got 2 kids.... When he left Shar, he didn't fight to have them... But now, these 2 little ones are Britney Spears' kids! That a big difference for this guy because now it means media and money!
How can a judge give him SP and JJ?? Insane...
Britney deserve much better than that!
Maybe. If she has someone monitoring her time with them anyway,someone monitoring them overnight while she has the kids isn't too much of a stretch. I don't know if she's earned the option of having them overnight by herself in a week though!
4yah shez been acting weird these days! i think she should earn those privilages..
5Kevin didn't HAVE to fight Shar for custody, because she is a good mother who was happy to share. She says glowing things about his parenting skills.
Britney is the selfish b**ch who first filed for full custody, trying to take the kids away from Kevin. She started the battle. I can't believe anyone can defend her parental skills.
Considering she refused to show up in court last week or get drug tested, and left her kids sitting outside her gate, I doubt 4 days of good behavior is going to win her custody back.
6No way. No sleepovers yet.
7There is still no doubt in my mind that Britney does love her boys but you have to face the fact she still isn't a fit mother/person. If she tries harder to change and is monitored then I guess the boys staying overnight would be fine but otherwise it is not fine.
8You shouldn't lose your kids for being selfish and stupid. Seriously people normal court doesn't work like that. Judges in these cases (celebrities) go overboard to cover their asses. One of my very best friends is a social worker, people keep their kids and are WAY freaking worse then Britney Spears. Hate her if you will, but people don't lose their kids for being a dumbass. I actually didn't realize she had lost overnight visitation. Knowing this now, I really think the ruling was extreme. Besides weird behavior and the testimony of a 2month employee there really doesn't seem to be any evidence she is anything more then a moron.
9Any mother is going to miss her children. Unfortunately, she didn't cherish and take care of her boys like she should of while she had them...now this is a consequence to her actions. In a way...I feel bad for her...not that I thought I would ever say that...but as a mother myself....I can imagine the pain that she feels when those boys leave her every night. Britney is a human being and she does have feelings...even if she is acting on those feelings a little too late.
10Just because there are people who behave WORSE than her doesn't mean it's okay for her to act like and keep are kids full time. And what do we REALLY know, there could be a lot more going on here.
11"overnight"? so why, the kids can sleep in britney's house while she's out drinking and partying? whats the point, she'd be prolly better of seeing them just during the day, at least she isn't hoe-ing it up as much then
12to me, the craziest thing of all is that britney spears is not under the influence of any kind of drug (at least that they could test for), and she still continues to act crazy. it's scary to me! at least if she were on drugs she'd have a kind of excuse. but, no. she willingly chooses to dress like a deranged hooker, hang out with sketchy characters, and openly welcomes the attention of paparazzi hoards, all while being perfectly sober. that should really freak everybody out.
13Good point Mabess! (and nice avatar)
I've been thinking that IF (big if) she is just crazy and not on some substance, than if she gets well one day, how will she feel seeing the pictures, articles and videos of this time period.
Because if any sane person were shown a bunch of stuff where the dressed and acted like that, who wouldn't be mortified and humiliated? In a way, becoming sane and seeing this could make her crazy again. Or really depressed.
14if she continues like this, she will recover her boys
15I would miss my babies so much just like her too if I were in her shoes. With that said, Britney needs more time to prove her commitment to clean up. Britney, you can do it! Don't give up.
16I would have voted "Hell No" if that were an option
17Yes, real courts and real juges DO act this way. It doesn't happen NEARLY enough, but it absolutely does happen. Yeah, "worse" people keep their kids, but it doesn't happen all the time. It had nothing to do with her being a celebrity and everything to do with her being an unfit mother. I would love to see her get her crap together and keep permanent 50/50 with Kevin but the fact is, she has to maintain the sobriety for more than a week and stop being an attention wh*re and acting crazy.
18I know people who take in foster kids, and you wouldn't believe the homes these kids go back to. Crack addict parents, sexual abuse and diets made entirely of bags of candy. The whole custody legal system, needs to be looked at.
19That being said, there are some people who should just never have kids because of personality issues or sanity issues. Britney is one of those people. Her photographed and videotaped behavior of the past year, is reason enough why Kevin should have the kids. He could easily be living the same lifestyle as her and get nearly the same media coverage but you don't see him in the tabloids and on the gossips sites nearly acting foolish at all hours of the day and night. The fittest parent, should get the kids. Britney is unfit right now and she definately should not get unsupervised overnight visits. Maybe if Aunt Jamie-Lynn or Grandma Spears were with her and the boys... There should be some responsible grown ups present.
Now, who would watch the boys when Britney is parading out on the streets at 3, 4 and 5 in the morning? That is one point that Kevin will absolutely bring up at the hearing. Of course, any mother would miss their kids no matter how deranged she might be but there are a lot of factors to consider in Brit's case. If she keeps acting like a lunatic the chances of her of getting her kids back are very slim.
20i dont know..will have to see.
21I don't think she's ready yet - I think she needs a little more time to think about the priorites in her life...
22Given how the judges are usually TOO lenient with celebs, and let them get away with murder, I'm thinking there had to be a lot of strong evidence there for the judge to make this decision. You think he'd really take her kids away just cause she was selfish, or stupid? I highly doubt that...we obviously don't know the whole story. Remember, there were others who testified on Brit's abilities as a mother, but we don't know what happened during those meetings (the other bodyguard Daimon, her cousin Alli, the ex-assistant Shannon). Who knows what they told the judge...
23Brit Brit should not be getting sleepover visitations with her boys... she need to earn that and she hasn't yet
24Any mother who leaves her 1 and 2 yr old babies outside for 40 minutes, like they are freaking peasants, leaving your kids to wait in a car with strangers after not seeing them for a week does NOT deserve to have those babies. It just blows my mind that this piece of trash could do this to her own helpless children. They are saying that Kevins people even called her lawyer and he was on the phone with her begging her to let the kids in! Then a week later she decides she wants an emergency hearing when there is no emergency! Why didn't she care enough to show up before she lost custody? Why didn't she do what the judge ordered her? This is just another example of Britney wanting things done on HER terms! HELL NO this psycho freak should NOT get overnight visitation!!!
25She didn't care before...why is she caring now...BOOOOOOOO
26not no but hell no i fear that will be her opportunity to relive the andrea yates scenario, f*cking crazy b*tch, btw for the ridiculous comment that kids get placed with worse parentS and she is being scrutinized because of her celeb staTus, ah no because she is a dumb f*ck coke head unfit mother who fractured her sons skull, thats why she doesnt have her kids oh and because she drove with her son on her lap on a major street with paps hounding her "THATS WHY THE b*tch DOESNT HAVE HER KIDS GAWD", AND FEDERJERK DIDNT FIGHT SHAR BECAUSE SHE IS A GOOD MOTHER AND sh*tNEY IS A f*ckED MOTHER, and fedex is smart he played all his cards right he is set for LIFE
27mabess, I agree 100%. It's very, very scary.
28i wonder whats she going to wear to court
29Not a chance. She's only been out of clubs for a week? Poor, Britney. Those courts are so pesky about ruining people's social lives. Look, I don't care how many drug tests the girl has supposedly passed -- there are a zillion ways of beating those, btw, so they are hardly concrete evidence of a turn around. Girl needs to do a lot more.
30the fans need a wake up call along with sh*tney, why does she deserve to have her kids after making them wait for 40 min for her stupid as and nothing she doesnt even have the decensy to come out to see her boys, or is she waiting for the covers on mags so she can see her boys, and what does she want them for so she can leave them with a nanny so she can party
31It's none of my business.
32when you put your sh*ty life out there yeah its an open door for anyone to judge that stupid idiot
33I'm pleasantly surprised that she even wants this. I really hope it's more about the kids than about fighting K-Fed.
34Zahara...let's just see if she even shows up.
35I honestly think she only wants these kids because they give her unconditional love...and they are the only stable thing in her life right now. Same with the little puppies she gets...unconditional love.
36I would not be surprised if requesting this "emergency hearing" worked against her. She was able to comply with the orders and attend last weeks hearing, but chose not to.
Now she is wasting the court's time with an "emergency" when there doesn't seem to be anything new in the case, other than she passed some drug tests. Kevin's attorney has to show up and fight it, jacking up his legal bills, which is probably why he's petitioned for her to pay his legal fees, because otherwise she'd just tie him up in lawyers forever.
Judges really don't like it when people ignore their orders and waste their time.
37no FB more like unconditional paps can you imagine when she does get them or actually visits with them all the media attention she will get, now thats a "MEDIA wh*re"
38I dunno what to think of this. Its peculiar. I don't know enough about family law to even take a guess at what the judge will do.
I hate to see children without a parent, regardless of how stupid the parent is being. I want her to get well, if not for herself, for those children. Its just so heartbreaking to see children going through such confusing times. I can only hope they are small enough to not realize what is going on and more importantly, not REMEMBER it when they get older.
My friend was taken from her father at a very young age for about a year and she remembers it as the worst, scariest time in her life. Was it best for her? Absolutely. But you don't realize that as a child. You just want your mom/dad.
39Very true Pink...and she does NOTHING to change that. Everyone rags on Federline, but at least he keeps 'em out of the spotlight!!
She prob won't show up...thinking she doesn't need to.
40If the judge decides to let her keep the kids for one night I bet there will be some restrictions that she's going to have to follow.
41here's the latest at TMZ. She needs to just stay in!! She goes out every freakin' day.
TMZ got Spears going in and out of Cabo Cantina yesterday, where she tried a new tactic to get the paps out of her way -- by continually repeating "I'm scared." As she walked into the Mexican restaurant, she dropped her new phrase at least 15 times as she weaved through paps.
Spears was just as uneasy with paps after eating, needing the assistance of a restaurant patron to get past the wall of photogs to her car.
42I think that she wouldn't even be home for the overnight visit as she would be out clubbing. A week is nothing to prove you have changed & new standards are set in her behavoir.
43no. the babies are not safe with her.
44FB if that's not proof that this girl is psycho I don't know what is! She does the strangest things. First she cries to Matt Lauer about how they need to leave her alone. Then she practically hangs out with the papz even getting a ride from them and telling them she loves them. Now she's "scared". What the hell is wrong with this biatch??? She has some very very serious mental issues. Tmz said that some days she just takes a really long drive to no where then makes a U-turn and drives around till she runs out of gas! WEIRDO!!!
45In the wonderful words of my sister-in-law...SHE'S DUMB!!!
46Her lawyer says she passed "more than one" drug test. I'd hardly define that as "multiple." Exactly how many could she have taken in this short amount of time anyway?
Deny the motion. Please.
47your right melissa no parent should be stripped from their parents but this is what sh*tney choose, no one else but her she is the only one to blame, she is beyond help worthy
48She is addicted tofame and she shouldn't get those privileges when she's out every night looking for attention checking into hotels at 6pm and leaving at 2am. When she had those boys she was never around, what will make it different this time. And as for there are bad mothers argument, they aren't the ones living their life through the media have you watched her videos on TMZ, the girl is clearly messed up.
49deny the motion we should petition the court to deny it
