A new court document reveals that Britney Spears "does not" have a developmental disability

[Busybee]

Developmental disabilities are severe, long-term problems. They may be physical, such as blindness. They may affect mental ability, such as learning disabilities. Or the problem can be both physical and mental, such as Down syndrome. The problems are usually life-long, and can affect everyday living.

 

So pretty much what they are saying is she doesn't have anything that would be detrimental to living her everyday life. If she has a mental health concern its manageable and separate from whatever is being claimed by team con.

Coo... now who's gonna give Britney her dignity back and all the things she has lost because of this bull**** arrangement.

[Karmickiss]

The most foul lie team on ever told in court is the dementia bit. My grandmother has dementia and Britney has literally 0 signs.

Not to rain on anybody's parade but dementia wouldn't fall under developmental disabilities, it's a neurological disorder (not that I think britney has it). Let's not spread any more rumors, I saw a ton of them beeing spread today all over twitter.

Why don’t they have other options to list then? I’m so confused with all this stuff and I don’t like to read the twitter stuff bc people don’t know what they’re talking about

Apparently a lot falls under the “dementia” section in court. Apparently bipolar is one of them

I don't know, I don't understand any of these legal stuff, but even with the different definitions of "developmental issues", the one that the probate court uses does not include dementia

Mental Illnesses don't seem to fall under this category. It's really weird how they claimed she had dementia to put her under a conservatorship. This is just speculation and I'm probably wrong but it's probable that "Dementia" was just a quick label they used before she was able to get a diagnosis. Dementia is a broad term and simply means that there is a "loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that are severe enough to interfere with daily life." I'm willing to bet this was almost a placeholder term until they got a definite diagnosis. However, I do believe this conservatorship is a complete sham. What's the worst case scenario, she has schizophrenia? My Nan had schizophrenia yet she didn't have her legal rights taken away? It's become apparent that Britney's mental health has been weaponized against her. My question is, would this have ever happened if Britney was a man? It's very easy for people to portray mentally ill women as hysterical people who need protecting from a "harsh world". A lot of this situation reads as if the people around Britney have an outdated and harmful view of mental illness. We have come far with treatments and medications, and there is support available if things go wrong. Sorry, rant over.

That's so scary to me because I feel like bipolar and dementia would be treated very differently, but I don't know much about bipolar so I can't speak.

she is doing something REALLY CLEAVER Here. she is trying to get rid of the  C Ship full stop. but she is doing it in baby steps. Britney you are doing really well.

[s&m]

This strategy is really genius actually.. Britney could never file for Terminate de Conservatorship abruptly because she would never have foundation to terminate it overnight! So the judge would deny it! So instead, they are first trying to deconstruct the conservatorship it self  and then try to remove it! Lynne's Lawyers are conservatorships' experts.. pretty sure these types of ideas came from them

Because that is one of the major foundations of this entire conservatorship

I don't think dementia is considered a developmental disability. I could be wrong, though. 

I think this is just a general statement. Either way, I'm glad strides are being made to get rid of Jamie & Co.!

 

It's not. Developmental disabilities are formed during developmental stages of birth, while in the womb. That's why things like Cerebral Palsey, Autism, etc are considered that. These are disabilities you're BORN with. This document simply states she was born with no disabilities and is "normal". Dementia is formed over time. Not something you're born with.

Dementia is a physical and mental disability. Not a developmental. As stated above, a developmental disability is one that you're born with (Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome,  Prader Willi Syndrome, etc). This document simply states she was born without any problems and is "normal"
