For example, Britany Spears and Kevin Federline were allowed joint cusitody of their children, and the court took into consideration that both parents abuse alcohol and drugs. The court only ordered that they not use drugs around their children, but isn't substance abuse grounds for removing the children from their parents' care because clearly as drug abusers, they are unfit to care for small children?

Most people today would lose custody of their kids if they were caught abusing. But most people are not rich and famous, like Britney and Kevin.

Because I think half these judges are probably abusing alcohol and drugs too. I can't think of another rational explanation.
