Britney Spears: "Not a child", so why is she acting like one?

Here's a news article I just found:

LOS ANGELES - Television’s “Dr. Phil” McGraw has pulled the plug on plans for a one-hour show that was to examine Britney Spears’ latest public meltdown.
Celebrity Web site TMZ.com had reported on Sunday that Spears’ parents were scheduled to appear on the show Tuesday.

In a statement posted Monday on his Web site, McGraw said the 26-year-old pop star’s situation was “too intense” for him to go forward with the show. He didn’t say whether he planned to reschedule.
Spears was hospitalized Thursday night after a child custody dispute with ex-husband Kevin Federline resulted in an hours-long standoff with police. On Friday, a court commissioner gave sole physical and legal custody of 1-year-old Jayden James and 2-year-old Sean Preston to Federline.
McGraw said he met with Spears for an hour Saturday before she left the hospital.
But according to TMZ, Dr. Phil showed up in Spears’ hospital room on Saturday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles without the pop star's invitation.
She had been admitted on late Thursday after a custody confrontation at her home that ended in hysterics by the troubled pop star, several media outlets reported.
Sources told TMZ that Spears' parents, Lynne and James, were the ones who asked Dr. Phil to help her. When he entered Spears' room, she reportedly walked out and returned later. Sources say he tried to speak to Spears for 15 minutes and later followed the star out to her car as she left the hospital.
A spokeswoman for the hospital declined comment citing patient confidentiality, and a representative for McGraw could not be reached.

Ok, point number 1:

Let's have some applause for Mr. and Mrs. Spears. At last, they're doing something to save the small shred of reputation Britney has left! I mean, where have they been all this time while her daughter had two kids with a complete idiot, was destroying her body with drugs, and was getting into trouble with the law? Did the big network celebrity gossip shows ever say anything about Brit's parents stepping in? Not that I ever heard. Although I do wonder why it took so long for James and Lynn to step up and try to help Britney, I'm happy to see that something is finally happening. And wise choice going to Dr. Phil. Fix a broken celebrity with one who knows what he's doing 24/7. "That might help!"

Point number 2:

Pulling the show, despite Brit's condition, was a bad move. If there was ever a time to make Britney face reality, it would be by rubbing salt in her wounds. She'd be there, in the hospital, watching the show, and maybe, if a complete miracle happened, she'd think to herself, Daaaaamn! I've really not been doin' so good, y'all! When the show airs, Britney will be sluttin' it up at the nightclubs, feeling like more than a queen again, and the show won't have as much impact.

Point number 3:

Britney's newest single, "Piece of Me", is a public challenge, in my opinion. The lyrics are styled to show that Britney knows what people say about her, and she's not ignoring it any longer. When I first heard the song, I was impressed. Britney was finally defending herself. Good for her. And then I found out that the song and video were made on November 27th. And my respect for Britney was lost again. Because since November 27th, she's still done stupid things for shows like "Extra" to put on their nightly routine of airing "Brit Watch". The song was a good idea, but it was nothing but an angry response. Britney hasn't changed. And unless God Himself speaks to her, she probably never will.
