We are not perfect

Here is a photo of a mother- a young mother- who CLEARLY loves her child. She cradles his head as he sleeps and holds him close. She is naive and makes mistakes. Imagine your every move is watched, recorded and scrutinized. That time you put your kid in their car seat and didn’t realize until you got to your destination that you forgot to strap them in, that time you turned for a second and the baby rolled off the changing table onto the floor, that time they got rambunctious in their chair and fell backwards…. We have ALL been guilty of mothering “mistakes” Then you are pregnant and your head is well- up your ass and still your every move is watched and you are constantly being judged. Your belly is getting larger and your pants WILL NOT stay up so you are constantly tripping on the hem because well your balance isn’t what it was.
So I say enough is enough. Leave Britney alone. I can’t even imagine being in her shoes. Yes she has made some mistakes, yes some of them are questionable but ultimately it is her business and her mistakes are for her to learn from on her own. It just seems so unfair and so mean to keep targeting her over and over again with our holier then thou attitudes. I have seen plenty of mothers doing awful things in public with their kids. Those reprehensible mom’s smacking their kids in target and yelling at them. That mom I saw years ago in a New York Subway who’s 4ish year old daughter was crying with snot running down her face- clearly not feeling well and her mom telling her to shut up. And then of course there are most of OUR moms who plopped us in the car with no car seats and no seatbelts. My mother used to let me sit on her lap and steer at the ripe age of 5.
For all the flaws that everyone is pointing out in Britney I am sure she has plenty of good things too. At least she is spending time with her baby and not having a nanny raise him 24/7 like some other celebs/ rich people do. I know someone who only ever saw her parents at night for a few minutes. Seen and not heard. This is MUCH worse in my opinion then facing forward in the car.
So Britney- I feel for you and hope at some point people will start pointing out your better mothering moments.
What we should be questioning is her choice of husband. Beyond his other undesirable attributes - clearly he is an absent father.
