just read a few articles about Billy Ray saying he did not discipline his kids and felt it was better to be their friend and how very much he now regrets that mistake. That is something many of us on this forum have been saying for a long time. Your kids don't want you to be their friends. They want parents.

He also says Hannah Montana destroyed his family and how worried he is about the choices Miley has made and who she is being influenced by. He would give up all that Hannah stuff just to have his life and family normal.

She is so out of control and might go the way of so many other starlettes in Hollywood and entertainment business. Sad

Well he has to find a new income source now he's off the payroll, makes sense he's selling his story.

He has nobody but himself to blame. He was always the first to defend her anytime someone questioned her behavior, now he's out of favor (possibly because of the divorce), he's trying to act like he had nothing to do with it.

Indeed. When it comes to failure in accepting personal responsibility Miley didn't fall far from the tree. The fact that LE and CPS does not hold the parents of these child stars to the same level of accountability they would any other parent doesn't help either.

Billy Ray running to the tabloids hasn't convinced me that he sees the error of his ways, parenting-wise. It's damage control.

It breaks my achey breaking heart. Seriously, his career was dead and Miley ressurected it. The family was greedy and this is what happens.

same thing with my sons, no, I'm not your friend, I am your Father.....we are not equal, I am the old fart and you boys will always be my babies......***sticks tongue out ****

He didn't seem to have a problem when she made close to $20 million dollars in one year & he was on her payroll.
