I don’t know about her dad…he’s not exactly set for life, isn’t he living in a trailer? He doesn’t seem any better off than he would have been just having Britney as a pop star daughter, pre-conservatorship. He’s probably a lot worse off as a result.
I think he’s a guy with his own problems, also an older Southern man e.g. outdated yet still pretty common ideas about how to raise your family (believes his word should go at all times as head of the household, it’s ok to smack kids, children shouldn’t talk back to elders etc). I think he’s got a history of mental health problems and alcoholism in the family and has gone in strong, trying to do the right thing/achieve a good outcome for his daughter but hasn’t necessarily gone about it the right way. My feeling now is that he is a flawed character but I think he was ultimately trying to help Britney, rather than it all being a scam to make money. She really doesn’t seem capable of getting better or helping herself.
