very good

im glad he got sole custody, im sorry she is not right in the head to have them, hopefully she gets the help she needs to be a good mom, wow she actually looked pretty in that picture

Wow... two years ago who would've thought Kevin would've ended up being the responsible parent? I remember everyone being really skeptical when he announced he was fighting for custody of his sons. Life sure can throw you a few surprises.

Good for them. They don't have to fight anymore.

Well, as long as he can raise them properly, more power to them. I think she is too selfish to have kids anyways.

the lesser of two evils is still an evil

Good luck boys...you'll need it!

i have to agree - we would never have thought that kevin would be the one to have the kids a few years ago but maybe it's for the best. at least she gets visitation and i'm sure that things will become more amicable now and she'll get to see the boys more. i hpe that for everyone's sake that she continues to get better and that all is well with her.

i think britney wants to focus on her career and not her kids. i feel bad for those little boys.

Although Britney has improved during the past year, she is still unfit to have custody of the boys and it's in the best interest of the children to stay with their father. It's unfortunate but Britney has to be guided, it seems, for the rest of her life. She's unable to make any decisions on her own and falls easily to bad influences.
I hope the judge mandates a percentage of the child support she has to pay and place it in a third party custodial account for the kids. Although Kevin has demonstrated to be responsible but he also doesn't have to live off his kids money. I hope the best for the boys.

It's sad she kind of just gave up and let him have the boys. They are better of with him because she is not mentally stable right now but i couldn't imagine just giving up fighting for my kids.

amen liss aand i agree rosa

well at least she is trying to get her life back together

i too couldn't stop fighting the only way i would stop is if i was dead or in jail/prison but at the same time brit is not well to properly care for those boys so they are better off with the better stable parent and yes federjerk is the better parent regardless of what people think or feel toward him, im glad he stood up to the plate we dont need another andrea yates and these precious boys be lost without a mother, at least they will see her regularly, i could care less for brit just for the simple fact that everything was before her children but in the end the boys need a mother

There is no way she was going to get physical custody in any way under a conservatorship, I'm sure her lawyers explained that to her. She probably has gotten a joint custody arraingement but Kevin has the ability to pull the plug if she falls outside certain terms.

thank goodness, Britney isnt fit to take care of a pair of shoes, much less two kids.

Its a shame she put herself and her needs over her childrens.

I'm very sad that she gave up custody with out trying harder.
Kevin is a phony. I just wants money that's all.

sounds like a great outcome

I think she knew that she wasn't going to get physical custody so there was no reason to drag it out. If she had gone to trial the same thing would have happened and it would have been harder for her to fight that one day. To me it seems that she finally put their needs above her own and realized that until she is fully better she can't give them the stability that they need.

it seems like kevin is trying hard to let britney be some point of her boys lives so hopefully this situation is the best- she'll get to see them and the boys will have a sense of normalcy.

I am glad he is keeping them but hopeful that things keep improving for her. My brother and me lived with my dad when my parents got divorced. My mom was never hospitalized but I think it makes sense to have Kevin raise them.

I think that Brit wants to get her career back together and all her life with it after she does that i bet shes going to be back together with her boys (:

I guess she never really wanted them after all. No just kidding. Looks like Britney spears is all about her career. I just hope her children know that they are always loved.

It still amazes me that Kevin is the one who came out as the more responsible one in all of this. Better for the boys though.

I'm glad they found a way to settle. That's good for the boys, and everybody have to think about them first!
Brit made a huge improvement and I'm very happy for her that she'll be able to have with her kids. Maybe she'll get more time soon!

I'm shocked that K-Fed is the more "responsible" parent considering his history (IE leaving his pregnant wife), but Brit's quite rocky these days so it's probably best the boys are with the more stable of the two. I really hope Kevin's grown up and matured throught his process. I'm glad this fight and drama is over.

he left his wife but NEVER his CHILDREN, there is a difference still a moron for leaving his family

not wife, baby mama and if when birt get better the custody can be amended

I'm glad to here that!

Not a surprise. She didn't stand a chance at custody, and if everything came out in a court case, she could have lost some visitation.

It takes more than putting on underwear for a few months to win custody of your kids. With the current visitation (still always supervised) she will be more like an aunt they have play dates with than a parent who provides care and discipline. She's already missed so many milestones in their lives.

For those of you who say she wasn't fighting for custody, I would beg to differ. Why else would it take two years to come to an agreement? Plus she didn't settle for the original custody arrangement. Whatever the reason, it appears she is trying to get some normalcy back into her life. I'm sure in the future she'll try to see her boys more. From what I ascertain the reason she lost custody was because of the issues she was having, not just because she doesn't want them.

Hopefully this is the best for the boys! And hopefully she gets ALL of her sh*t together!!!

Yeah!! Good for the boys, you can see that they are sooo much better with Kevin and the GREAT nanny he found for them. They get to go to child appropriate outings, and not to a gas station at midnight!! Britney was never a fit mother and should never be granted custody. She isn't even fit to have a dog...London anyone???

He's SO ugly in that photo!!! Not that he ever looks good.

Frankly, I would have rather seen Spears' family gain custody. Federline now has two atms. Low life.

I rarely see photos of Keving with the kids (it's always the nanny with them)...I wonder if it's because he keeps them mainly out of paps' views or he is not around that much?? I honestly think they don't need to be with Britney, but I do wonder how awesome of a dad he is (and he seriously can't have THAT much work that he doesn't have time to be with his kids....look at Heidi and Seal)! What do you guys think????

Funny, you never see him with his other kids --I wonder how will he pay that child support? Will the money he get from child support, partially go to his ex. Very disappointed she didn't get her s&it together and fight for her babies.

Britney DID NOT fight for custody for 2 years. She refused to show up to hearings and her deposition. That is why it took so long! Kevin does not use the boys for publicity as Britney does. Come on, she went out shopping with the boys and then left them in the car with the court appointed monitor! Being a mother takes more than just giving birth, kids are a commitment, NOT an accessory!

These boys are still very young and there is a strong possibility she can be a mother to them. If you look at other sites with more details, she is getting more visitation very similar to a joint custody arrangement just I'm sure there is language in the agreement if she stops treatment.

wow am I the only one thinking that this is incredibly sad...being raised by a single mom, I can say that I could have never imagined my childhood without my mother and raising your own children should come naturally...and she willingly gave up? Wow

what will her kids think later in life...awful

i don't think britney willingly gave them up. IMHO she got tired of all the testing and monitoring and said f*ck it...i'll concentrate on my career.

don't forget he WAS father of the year

More time with Mommy will be nice but I don't think she is ready for fulltime Mommy

It's not true that you never see Kevin with his other kids. He took all four kids to Disneyland and another amusement park in recent weeks. But since he doesn't alert the paparazzi in advance, like Britney does, most of the pictures are from people who happened to be in the park that day.

It's pretty normal for people who employ nannies to have them take the kids to appts. My non-famous friends with nannies let them do all the schlepping kids around, cleaning of kids, play dates, supervise homework, etc. That's the point of having a nanny.

Kevin makes between a quarter and half a million dollars a year in appearances, so I think he'll be able to pay his other kids' school fees just fine. If you think this amount is a lot, go look at what Russell Simmons has to pay... $20,000 a month per child, plus a bunch of other stuff, and buy his ex a new car every couple of years.

I agree with simbaspaws - this is really sad.
But, I mean, we don't know all of the details. I'm betting she probably didn't want to drag this out any longer, and didn't want to hash it out in court just to have the same outcome.
She loves her boys, but I think she's doing what's best for them...right now.
She still has a chance to be a mother. And these things aren't always set in stone, things can change later on down the road when things get better for her.
Good luck to everyone.

I love how people freak out about Britney going to the studio and to dinner when Kevin is repeatedly shown partying all over the place in bars/clubs while his kids are home with the nanny.

Britney isn't in a good frame of mind, I'm well aware of that. But Kevin is and yet he still parties in Vegas and Miami all the time. He's just as bad as her but worse because he actually had the kids and is leaving them with someone else.
