Britney Spears has been ordered to take randomized drug tests

Britney Spears has been ordered to take randomized drug tests in order to maintain custody of her children. On top of that she must seek counseling and see a parenting coach. NY Daily News reports:
“Based on the evidence presented, the court finds that there is a habitual, frequent, and continuous use of controlled substances and alcohol by [Spears],” he wrote in his nine-page ruling…. The judge ordered the 25-year-old to undergo random drug testing twice a week - and get a parenting coach. Kevin Federline didn’t come out of the ruling without a few dings either:

K-Fed and Brit are barred from consuming alcohol or drugs within 12 hours of when they are scheduled to take care of their children, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1. They also have to hire a parenting coach to evaluate them and report back to the court, and they must enroll in a Parenting Without Conflict program within five days. The battling exes are due back in court Nov. 26.

The Parenting without Conflict program is a standard order for any divorcing parents who are having the slightest trouble. The no drinking/no drugs for 12 hours prior to, and during time with the children are also standard. Both of those things were ordered during my divorce (though the no drinking/drugs wasn't ordered for me, as I had no history).

This sounds like a big dramatic thing, but it's just normal. The parenting coach and drug testing, though, could be a different story.

After watching the video from TMZ I can help but wonder why the hell would Britney go out drinking, keeping herself in a negative way in the public eye?
