Britney Gets Visitation Back
(you just know she’s popping a scalp zit)
Weren’t we just writing about this a couple of days ago? We’re learning that Brit now has regained visitation of her kids, after doing whatever it was the judge wanted her to do:
On Wednesday, L.A. Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon [more commonly known as "old fart"] had temporarily suspended her visitation rights. A source close to Spears told PEOPLE the judge removed her rights after the pop star was unreachable by a cell phone designated for court-related scheduling.
On Thursday, Kevin Federline’s lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, said he expected Spears would get visitation reinstated soon because “she has complied with the part of the order [causing the suspension].”
I don’t get it. She gets visitation revoked one day and reinstated a couple of days later. What…she got a new cell phone? She found out if you walk around holding your cell phone in the air, it gets better reception? She finally gave them her landline number? She got two tin cans with a really long string? What?
But here’s the part of the story that really interests me:
The singer on Saturday was spotted driving with her children in Studio City, Calif., in her white Mercedes convertible, which was decorated with pumpkins on the dashboard.
A presumed court-appointed monitor was seated in the front seat, with her sons in the rear.
The court-appointed monitor was in the front seat? How much does this person get paid to do this? Whatever it is, it isn’t enough! And didn’t this monitor (or, at least a monitor) say a few days ago that they were seeking to end the court-ordered visits because they weren’t doing any good?
I don’t know about you, but I’d love to be a little fly on the wall when Brit and Kevin have their co-parenting therapy sessions.

All these conflicting stories have to make you wonder what is fact and what is fiction. Guess the original story was the parenting coach was allegedly giving up because of lack of cooperation. I find it difficult to believe that her visitation rights would be reinstated unless she was meeting her court ordered obligations. Man, I want to believe our legal system is better than that.
PS – i would be terrified to drive with her! You are right about the $ not being enough for that job!

It seems the “old fart” is trying desperately to work with Britney. Even “old farts” can be star-struck.
Seriously, you’d be surprised how seemingly normal people react to famous people. Even judges.
I’ve met a few famous people in my life and depending on there level of fame, you do get a little tongue-tied and weird around them. It’s embarrassing when it happens to you, even though you know better.
And yeah, driving with Britney deserves some kind of hazard pay for sure.
