As the appropriately dressed Britney Spears exited the Ritz Carlton New York yesterday with a glass in one hand, and her baby in the other, she lost her footing, almost braining baby Sean Preston. Luckily, her mustachioed bodyguard quickly threw himself between the pavement and the baby.
SG member reaction to the photos posted yesterday varied greatly. Suicide Girl Posh felt pity for the new mom.

I did almost feel bad for her after the baby dropping incident. I think there are tons of parents that this actually happens to. Of course, none of them happen to have 100 photographers around just waiting to capture a bad momma moment to report on.

I might feel sorry for her if this was the first time this happened, but she does this stuff time after time. She goes through nannies like water, has had child services called on her like twice, and leaves the baby with random people while she goes traveling with Douche-Federline. And NOW she's pregnant again Get an IUD They are like 40 bucks from a health centre.
Incorrigible summed the entire mess up for us nicely.

Jesus, Brit-Brit. put on a shirt. And pull up your pants. And buy a stroller. Stop crying. It makes me nervous.
It makes us all nervous. Now watch the video of the incident and tell us what you think.
it wasn't really that bad if you watch the video. she stumbles. she probably wouldn't have if she wasn't surrounded by 50 people and having so many flashes going off in her face.
jesus christ will anyone ever leave her the fuck alone? im not voicing anger at this thread, but the fucking media...my god. as a parent myself, if i had idiots following me wherever the fuck i went, id be dropping kids like bombs.
granted, shes clueless. she puts her kid in the carseat backwards, she doesnt realize that smoking during pregnancy is bad, shes obviously a terrible human being. you know what? my parents used to smoke pot when i was a kid, my mom left me alone one time for a half hour when i was 3 only to have the cops waiting for her when i got home, my father was an utterly useless douchebag who never did a goddamn thing, my mother threatened to kill herself to get me to listen to her on multiple occasions and i turned out just fine. ive never done a drug in my life, never tried smoking, rarely drink, dont break the law in any way (short of looking at boobies on the internets LOLZ) and in general dont suck as a person or a parent.
britney is probably a better parent than 98% of parents on this planet. shes a touch clueless, but for the love of god, leave her be. if any of you are truly worried about the safety of her kid, just drop this shit. if youre looking to make yourselves feel better about yourselves by trashing her parenting skills, god bless. just realize thats what you are doing.

hold on to your kid with both hands for fucks sake!!!! When the kids are that little.... thats what you do!!!!
what the hell are you talking about? my daughter is 8 months old and shes been supporting her head since she was 3 months old. shes had the tummy strength to keep herself from keeling over since she was 5 months old.
yeah well when you have a million people around you flashing cameras it's a different story... hold on to your fucken baby. if the man nanny could react that quick she should be quicker being the childs mother.
and making a statement saying she is a better parent than 98% of the parents on this planet is retarded.
and making comments like this is why i need a gun hinting that she would be going around shooting people is just something that most of the population would do too.

so, what are you talking about?
Yeah, i have kids too... i have two kids, one is almost 4, one is almost 2. When they are that old i am still holding on to them with 2 hands. I still hold on to my youngest with 2 hands even now... its my motherhood instinct. I like them to be secure... ecspecially when im standing over concrete. I may not be gripping her hard with that second hand but it is resting on her back and ready to grip

i wish i had babies... lots of them.
lol... i want more!!! I love kids!!! If and when i have large amounts of money i will reproduce like crazy!!!
hehehe... nah... ill have a few more. Actually im gonna keep trying till i have a boy.
But to be on subject its just that i hold my kids very close when they are young,.. ecspecially in public. If im carrying something fragile and large i will carry it with two hands without thinking about it and my child is way more important than any material possession... thus i automatically carry it with two hands. Yes, its a bit uncomforable sometimes, yes i cant carry tons of stuff at the same time but thats the sacrifice i have made. Im just overprotective... at some point in the near future my kids will hate me for it... but for now they are my life and i protect them as such.
You know what? I've tripped while holding my kids. Does that make me a bad parent?
Shit happens. Get over it. It's not his head slammed into the pavement. She had a firm grip on him. You'd be surprised how hard you grip your kid when you loose your footing.
