this made me a little sad - isn't SPF holding his little brothers hand as if to comfort him when he's scared of all the flashes? Damn paparazzi! Leave the kids alone!
It's easy enough to avoid paparazzi swarms, it really is. When Nicole Ritchie got pregnant, she went from being photographed every day to not being photographed for days and days at a time. And Paris is being photographed a lot less nowadays. Britney courts the attention she gets, and it's really sad that she can't put it away for the sake of her kids.
I feel so bad for those kids. They were kind of "accessories" for their mom, like all her tiny dogs before them. She has no clue how to truly mother them, and that's sad.
it's pretty well documented that she has been tipping-off paparazzi of all her comings and goings for quite a few months now, even placing high-visibility props in her windshield so they can spot her car more effectively(those orange plastic halloween pumpkins across her dashboard since like, September, and the colorful baby shoe dangling from the rearview mirror...you can even see it in the pic above) -- so if it's anybody's fault, it's obviously ms. spears.
OMG! I didn't know that showed like that. From what all the gossip-sites were saying she was partying throughout both pregnancies, I guess I was kind of hoping she drank juice (I have a friend who was like a ball of energy during her pregnancy, she went to concerts once a week and the baby girl she had is clearly obsessed with rythm/music so that seems to have worked out pretty good for them). Poor kids. :(
Here I was worrying what kind of nightmares a thousand flashing lights from a swarm of paps will induce in a one year old & two year old. It must be so scary for them.
