Kevin Federline had to post parenting videos.
Britney Spears' public spat with her ex- husband intensified late Wednesday night when Federline uploaded three videos taken by the former spouses' sons, as their mother. The boys were 11 and 12 at the time.
I cannot allow my sons to be accused after what they have gone through. Federline said that they decided as a family to post the videos on social media. This isn't the worst thing that has happened. The truth needs to stop. I hope our children are better than this.
Spears chastises one of her boys for going into an ice cream shop without shoes on and tells a son to respect her when she enters his room in one of the short clips.
In the third video, Spears and her sons argue with each other, with Sean telling his mother, "I think you just care about yourself, because you won't let us speak one word and you won't let us go anywhere we want to go."
Federline took the videos down in response to the backlash. He had no posts on his social media accounts as of Thursday.
Kevin Federline is posting videos of Britney's kids 'arguing' with her that are just her being a parent while they are mad disrespectful to her. It's good for her to know what it's like to be a parent.
I would like to send a letter to Kevin Federline." There is a video of a mom being a mom. AllyReid, a radio host in Albany, N.Y., said that sometimes mothers have reactions. Discipline could be taken away or asked for respect. Sometimes mothers will argue with their children.
Kevin Federline is a bad excuse for a dad. Greg Ellis is the voice of Skylanders Academy.
Federline's tell-all interview was posted by the Daily Mail.
Federline said that the boys decided not to see her. They haven't seen her in a long time. They decided not to attend her wedding to Sam Asghari.
Sean and Jayden were affected by their mother's habit of posting nearly nudes on her account.
I try to explain to them that she is trying to express herself. That doesn't mean that what it does to them isn't true. Federline said it was difficult. I can't imagine what it's like to be a teenager.
Victoria and Federline share parenting responsibilities over the teen boys as well as their two daughters. According to the Daily Mail, Federline's older kids with Shar Jackson visit a lot.
After the couple's divorce in 2007, Spears' ex initially got full custody of the kids, but that agreement changed over the years to allow her more time with them. The boys told their mom recently that they were going to spend most of their time with their dad.
It's hard for me to let go of things I truly love, like my kids, after Federline's recent remarks. It should have been dealt with privately and not online.
She wrote, "I know that teenagers are hard to deal with at that age, but come on, there's being rude then there's being HATEFUL... they would visit me, walk in the door, go straight to their room and lock the door." The court-appointed MoniTOR told me that he likes to be in his room. I have to be kind, that's why I didn't say that.
She claimed that the Federline home has more weed than 50 Cent, Jay Z and Puff Daddy combined, and that she could prove it. There was backlash because she mentioned only black artists.
Spears wrote as the post neared its end that everything was about the kids. You can't fix me, they knocked the breath out of me. Therapy can't fix my heart. I know that I will have trauma for the rest of my life.
The attorney for Spears said in a statement Thursday that he wouldn't stand for any harassment of his client.
The lawyer said that Mr. Federline has undermined his own children's privacy by violating the privacy and dignity of the mother.
Mr. Federline's ill-advised decision to post an old video of his children was cruel, bottom of the barrel. It was morally reprehensible. He has created various legal issues for himself including, but not limited to, cyber-harassment and cyber-bullies, among other things.
In order to make sure Federline was following its rules, he was working with the photo sharing website.
"As Britney poignantly said, whatever is happening between her and her boys should remain private," he added. Mr. Federline is urged to act with a measure of grace and decency and to stop talking about private matters.
