Spears continues, “Now I think about how my father and his associates had control over my body and my money for so long, and that makes me feel guilty…Think about how many male artists have gambled away all their money; How many suffered from substance abuse or “mental health issues.” No one tried to take away their control over their bodies and their money. “I didn’t deserve what my family did to me.”
