I think you mean it’s Sean Presten Federline.
May 14th, 2008 at 8:53 pm
That’s Sean Preston
May 14th, 2008 at 8:54 pm
wow he looks like his brother
May 14th, 2008 at 9:01 pm
I could be wrong but that looks like Sean Preston.
May 14th, 2008 at 9:03 pm
cute boy, hope him and his bro are doing good, and loving being with mommy again
May 14th, 2008 at 9:06 pm
I don’t understand. His nanny was taking him to day care? Wouldn’t having a nanny cancel out the need to have a day care? Is it a preschool maybe? 2 1/2 is a little young for preschool in my area, but maybe it is different in other area of the U.S.?
May 14th, 2008 at 9:25 pm
I think he was most likely being taken to a pre-school setting. A lot of parents start their child/children in preschool at 2 1/2 or 3. You don’t necessarily have to wait until they’re 4. Our daughter goes to a Montessori school which enrolls children in their pre-school class as young as 2 1/2 (which is when she started, she’s 3 1/2 now). So it is entirely possible. I’m sure Kevin knows it’s important for his little man to socialize with other children his age, a nanny alone can’t give him that.

In the current situation, I have to say I’d be uncomfortable for someone else to raise my children. I get that Britney & Kevin didn’t work & all, but they have people doing stuff THEY should be doing. I’m very happy I’m not famous, and I’ve done the upbringing to my child. Sean Preston looks adorable & so does little Jayden!
May 14th, 2008 at 9:59 pm
As someone who works at a daycare for teachers, I have to wonder what an upscale “celebrity” daycare would look like.
May 14th, 2008 at 10:07 pm
I wish his parents were around…I really do.
May 14th, 2008 at 10:14 pm
I read X17 constantly and ya know they are totally obsessed with everything Britney so the nanny takes both kids to this gymboree type place..just to have a little fun outside of home i guess..
May 14th, 2008 at 10:55 pm
I also think it’s strange that they have a nanny taking care of the kids all the time while they both are not working.
May 14th, 2008 at 11:01 pm
I have heard that also tiffanyyy. But what I wonder is why we don’t ever see Kevin taking them anywhere? Everytime we see them they’re with the bodyguards or the nanny’s. And when they’re with a parent they’re with Britney. Both Sean Preston and Jayden James are adorable. Sean looks like his hair is still wet here …. he’s so handsome
May 14th, 2008 at 11:29 pm
I don’t see anything wrong with taking your 2 1/2 year old child to pre-school perhaps once or twice a week for 1-2 hrs. each time. Given that it’s most likely play-based he/she will play with same-age kids in a classroom setting. It just gets them used to being in a classroom earlier and perhaps, have less behavior issues later. Let’s hope that Kevin and Britney are doing their best to be with their 2 boys as much as possible. Consistency is key for this young age.
May 14th, 2008 at 11:56 pm
Ann, it’s not fair to say they aren’t raising their children by random paps pictures. As some said earlier on this site, Kevin really doesn’t like to be seen in public with his kids because it causes a big commotion especially since Britney lost custody. Also, Kevin is probably with Jaden and he does have two other children beside Sean and Jaden and I think people forget that. Kevin does work when he can find it as well. If he was a horrible parent, the kids would have taken from him as well.

There’s a cute video with Jayden James on x17.

Am I crazy or did this post initially say it was Jayden? I could have sworn it said Jayden and thats what my comment was about lol
May 15th, 2008 at 1:03 am
Wow, I think he is really starting to look a lot like Kevin.
May 15th, 2008 at 2:44 am
I’m from the UK, and it’s completely normal for a child of Sean’s age to be in playgroup. The order over here is playgroup, nursery, school, and that starts from the age of 2 onwards. On the subject of Sean, this is the first photo I’ve seen of him where I can really see his father in him. Both boys look more like Britney to me and I think she has softer facial features than Kevin, which makes for cute bubbas!
May 15th, 2008 at 3:27 am
AWWWW….Preston looks like such a doll w/ his hair combed to the side like that. He looks more & more like his daddy everyday.
May 15th, 2008 at 6:40 am
when did they start him in pre school?? I know he goes to Gymboree every couple days. I didn’t start my daughter til she was 4 and my son when he was almost 4. I know it is probably good for SP but it would be so nice to see his dad taking him to school.
May 15th, 2008 at 6:56 am
In Belgium, kids start preschool or kindergarden at 2.5 years until they are 6, then move on to elementary school. The reason is mainly financial. In Belgium, you need 2 salaries and daycare is rather expensive, so babies go to daycare from +/- 3 months to 2.5 years. (Pre)school / kindergarden is free over here.
May 15th, 2008 at 7:32 am
Awwh he is sooooooo cute.
May 15th, 2008 at 8:22 am
Bancie–
Kevin was actually spotted out a week or so ago with all of his children at an aquarium there in California. The paps were expecting it because he doesn’t go out with them very often — I think that’s kinda the point :O)
May 15th, 2008 at 9:03 am
Thanks Rachel K – I can’t believe someone is actually giving Kevin a hard time while giving Britney credit!
That said, my son goes to an amazing – AMAZING – preschool (started at 18 months) and it’s the best thing ever. It’s 3 hours a morning (9-12) and I would recommend it to anyone. He’s learning two languages, they have “science class” complete with little lab coats and beakers
and cooking, hip-hop, athletics, math, art, etc. He learns new things and has new experiences every day, in addition to making lots of friends. There is also an area for parents to “observe” from above and socialize. Great for playgroups! I’m sure Sean’s is similar and it’s a great opportunity for him to be a “normal” kid. Likewise, I’m sure the nanny takes him to avoid a paps frenzy outside of the school.
May 15th, 2008 at 9:03 am
She’s taking him to my gym. It’s a gymboree type place for the boys to interact with kids their age and play. The boys have been pictured going for the past few months. Each on different days than sometimes together.
May 15th, 2008 at 9:29 am
I think I remember seeing awhile back, around the time that Britney was going through her really crazy time, that Kevin transported the kids back and forth in the care of bodyguards to minimize the craziness of the pap’s trying to catch a picture of him with the kids. I can understand this and I think it is a wise choice. I’m sure that a picture of Kevin doing drop-off and pick-up would cause a bigger frenzy then a nanny/bodyguard would.
If this decision was made to be in the best interest of the children AND with safty in mind then I am completely in support.
May 15th, 2008 at 9:54 am
I started both of my girls in preschool at 2 1/2 yrs. old for 3 days a week for 2.5 hours, not for “educational” purposes but for socializing with peers their own age and they love it! They like to be in the “school” setting as it makes them feel “bigger” as my daughter says and she likes to make new friends and play different things than at home. I bet SP likes to escape all the media junk and be a kid at his school!
May 15th, 2008 at 10:04 am
Sean looks like his dad, so beautiful.
May 15th, 2008 at 10:42 am
I think it would be very easy to judge the fact that Kevin isn’t seen much with the boys, but honestly, I think that is a GOOD thing. With all of the drama that happens among their family, I think a lot higher of Kevin keeping things pretty low-profile, and not as circus-like as they have been in the past. It would call a lot more unneeded attention on Sean if Kevin took him out like that.
We aren’t with these people 24/7, so we have no way of knowing how much time someone does or doesn’t spend with their children. There is more to life than tabloid fodder and paparazzi photos.
May 15th, 2008 at 10:58 am
I agree with Renee. You can’t make ridiculous assumptions based on one photograph. When I was Sean’s age, my mom and all her friends had a babysitting arrangement where I was always hanging out with other kids not to mention I had a bajillion cousins, so if a photo were taken at random, it wouldn’t always show my mom hanging on me doing things for me. But not all kids have that so they go to preschool or daycare or Gymboree to interact with kids their age. And it would be nice to think that moms take their kids everywhere and are the only ones who ever tend to their children’s needs, but that’s just not true. Many kids have babysitters at some point or nannies or even just involved grandparents or somebody helping mom out here and there.
I just saw the episode of South Park yesterday where Britney was the modern-day human sacrifice (killed by camera) and now with these uncalled-for comments, I see it’s more true than ever.
On a happier note, Sean’s expression is great. He’s adopted the far-off gaze of a Calvin Klein model. LOL
May 15th, 2008 at 11:11 am
Just wanted to say that I am a nanny for a “normal” (non celebrity) family with two kids, and I take the older one to preschool when he has half days. Its a great way to get the best of both worlds (the one on one attention from a nanny and the socialization of the daycare.)
May 15th, 2008 at 12:31 pm
Both of britney’s boys are so cute. Jayden looks exactly like britney, while sean is a nice mix of kevin and britney, but has a bit more britney features IMO. He is adorable.
May 15th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
brannan- I don’t see anyone giving britney credit, just stating what they see. Britney is seen with the kids alot more than Kevin. Just because Britney pays for someone to do the public care of the kids doesnt make Kevin some great dad.
I also don’t buy the excuse or reasoning for kevin never wanting to be seen in public with the boys. When did he become 6th Beattle or royalty? The boys are the celebs not Kevin. They get photographed when there with the grandparents, the nanny, or the bodygaurd. Adding Kevin to the mix isn’t gonna change much. If real celebs that are a million times more famous than Kevin can take their kids to school, the park, the zoo, gym classes….etc then why can’t Kevin exactly? That’s why I never understood where he was coming from.
May 15th, 2008 at 8:23 pm
My daughter could have started preschool at 2y10m. As long as the child was 3 before the end of the calendar year they were allowed into the 3yo class. I held her back and enrolled her just after her 3rd bday. I think it’s really important for kids this age to have social activities with other kids their age.
May 16th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
hmmmm figures. So people evaluate the Brit/Fed family situation by PHOTOGRAPHS and despite not coming out and saying they are bad parents, that is what you are essentially implying (if it wasnt you wouldnt mention it)
yet you assume that the whole Ang/Brad family are just sooo wonderful because of the PHOTOGRAPHS you see.
See how people react towards celeb – you praise those you like no matter what and you criticize those you dislike no matter what…
May 16th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
A nanny taking a child to daycare? How sad. How far removed from a child could a parent possible be? The very least a parent can do – especially a parent who has all the time in the world– is to bring the child to daycare/playgroup him or herself. This is often the time that a child might share concerns, fears, joys, troubles, etc. Unfortunatley for Sean, his parents are rich, fairly useless celebrities who are doing who knows what instead of caring for their children.
