Britney Spears: Six Rules Her Dad Enforces

Britney Spears went from crazy, erratic behavior which resulted in losing custody of her sons, to getting her life together, getting fit and having more time with her boys, all because her dad Jamie stepped in and gave his daughter direction.  Spears has six rules that he's put in place for Brit and he expects her to adhere to them.

Britney is staging a career comeback and her father wants to make sure she succeeds as well as keep her mental health in check, so he's got a list of things Brit must follow to help keep her on the right track.

Rule # 1:

No drinking.  Britney was a pretty heavy duty party girl but that's changed.  She will have an occasional glass of champagne but that's it.

Rule # 2:

Always have a chaperone.  Jamie was staying at Britney's house, but he no longer does that.  He does however, insist on accompanying her everywhere, including social and work events.

Rule # 3:

No E-Mail.  Britney is able to text message and make calls on her Blackberry, but dad Jamie does not allow her to send e-mails, according to a family friend.

Rule # 4:

Britney gets an allowance.  Jamie stepped in and saved his daughter's $120 million fortune that was in jeopardy of dwindling quickly with Brit's crazy spending.  She now gets $1,500 a month to spend how she wants.  She is allowed to use her American Express care for special purchases.

Rule # 5:

Approval of friends.  Jamie keeps tabs on who spends time with Britney and anyone with a negative influence is not permitted to be around his daughter.

Rule # 6:

No driving.  Britney does have a valid driver's license now, however her dad wants her to be chauffeured.  A pal said, "Jamie's not comfortable with her driving.  He doesn't think she's calm enough to handle being on the road."

The rules might seem a bit excessive for a nearly 27-year-old woman, but Britney still seems very immature and not quite ready to stand on her own two feet.  She's definitely on the mend, but I think she does need direction from her dad, who seems to be doing a good job.  It's a shame that her mum and dad didn't put this much effort into their daughter as she was growing up in the spotlight.  Better late than never I guess.
