I've always had a soft spot for Britney. I've also wondered how I would balance encouraging my daughter to pursue her dreams and protecting her from the jaws of the industry. I hope their story has a happy ending. I really do.

Sidney, love that. It's a much healthier bubble for sure than hiding them away from real life. : )

I love to read, and this is one I'll definitely check out. Those of us with kids, teenagers in particular, obviously want the best for them, all while wanting them to spread their wings and grow. Britney was "taken" at such a vulnerable age when they still need so much Godly adult guidance, and unfortunately, her growing was done in the public eye. I remember telling God one time when my children were much younger that I wish I could just put them in a protective bubble for the rest of their lives (or at least their time at home with me!), and His response was that that is what prayer is for. That has eased my mind at a time when I now have three teenagers, and three more on the way up!!

My own daughter is one day younger than Britney. If I put myself in Lynne's shoes, I wonder how I would respond or feel. Love your comment.

This book sounds interesting I'll have to check it out sometime. When it comes to Bitney I choose mercy over judgement when the media is putting her down I turn off the t.v. and pray for her. I know Britney is an amazing person and I wish the best for her.
