Britney – who is accompanied on her ‘Britney Spears Presents the Circus’ tour by her sons and ex-husband Kevin Federline, who has primary custody of the children – agreed with her mentor’s view and hopes them seeing what she does first-hand will impress them.

Britney, 27, said: “I do think it’s all about history. What we as mothers are doing is creating this history with our kids that we can look back on and say, ‘Yeah, that was hard. But it was fun because we did it together.’ When they’re adults I want my kids to say, ‘Wow, my mom was working hard but she was there for us.’ “

However, there are some parts of her show which the ‘Womanizer’ star won’t allow her boys to see.

An insider explained to Britain’s Hello! magazine: “She wants them around all the time. Except maybe not for the parts of the show she thinks are too suggestive. A couple of times along the way Britney’s mother Lynne has taken the boys out of the arena when the show gets a little outrageous.”
