ExtraTV called it a Britney Spears’s “foul-mothed tirade,” but I think they’re missing the point. “Eat it, lick it, snort it, f*%k it!” isn’t a tirade, it’s a life philosophy.

When Britney first came on the scene, people said she was too slickly produced. Now she seems to have gotten past that stage. If you’re looking for an object lesson in what happens to people without any core values, she’s the paradigm.

It’s all less amusing because there are kids involved. Leafing through the inestimable TMZ.com, one item struck me. Seems the parenting coach sent by the judge to observe Britney’s mothering didn’t quite feel the love in the home: ” ‘during all three of my visits, Ms. Spears rarely engaged with the children in either conversation or play.’ […] ‘It seems that [Britney’s] choices are dependent more upon what she wants to do at any given time rather than what would be more enjoyable for the children.’ The coach also said Spears seemed to have a ‘lack of general attention at times’ but there was nothing she ‘would characterize as abusive in a traditional sense.’ ”

Too bad she learned too late that children aren’t decorations, or toys.
