Of course she is. Do you need to be a shrink to know Britney is dangerous? Her well-publicized incidents include staggering out of a car and almost dropping a child, driving with a child on her lap and possibly driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. Legal representatives, such as family court counselors, have cited Britney many times for endangering her children by her continuing incidents of erratic and drunken behavior.

Additionally, over the years when her children actually lived with her, Britney hired a series of nanny/bodyguards, male and female, who quit within a month or two. Their mutual complaints were that the mother just didn't seem to have any interest, not only in the children's safety, but the every-night party girl hardly cared about their very existence. While the late night comedians' comments about Britney's dangerous neglect of her children may be exaggerated to create one-line jokes, there's a disturbing kernel of truth in all of them.

The most damning evidence that Britney is a danger to her children is a judge's decision last year to turn the custody of them over to their father, Kevin Federline. Oh, sure, that was a perfect move to assure the safety of the kids. The terrible reality that the former husband, a no-talent, sleep-around (two kids by another woman) financial sponger is considered a better parent than Britney is an even more revolting joke than any comedian could create.

Has all the negative news and court-ordered loss of her children bothered Britney? While she continues her every-night partying ways, new publicity about her 16-year-old sister's pregnancy only strengthens the distressing image of a family trashed by poor judgment and worse behavior. And it continues. In another twist of unbelievable behavior, Britney has now taken up with another man, and rumors are that she is pregnant by him. So, who is this latest lover of the messed-up media darling?

Almost unbelievable if it weren't happening to entertainment's most bodacious bimbo, the new man in Britney's life ... and bed ... is a paparazzi. One of the hundreds of offensive street photographers and videographers who've hounded her endlessly 24-7 for the past five years. No scriptwriter could create such an unbelievable scenario. Britney has fallen in love with one of the sleazy vultures who've been harassing her and dodging her attempts to run him over. The prey has invited the predator to cross the line and come over to her side, as well as other parts of her body.

As long as the court order keeps Britney away from her children except for supervised visits, she can't be a danger to them. However, can anyone possibly speculate what she will do next to continue to be a great danger to herself?
