Losing it Publicly
This is part one of a multipart examination into the role that public perception and media played into the custody battles of Britney Spears and Courtney Love. These are moms that have been told what is collectively EVERY mother’s worst nightmare: You’re a Bad Mom. Are these examples of mom-shaming or did the public really have cause for concern? In the example of Britney Spears a little bit of both is going on. Here we will pinpoint when the mom-shaming turned into true concern and talk about why nothing was done about it.
