Britney Spears has been slammed for posting a video of her son Jayden appearing to use his phone while driving.
Over the weekend, the 43-year-old singer uploaded a video of her youngest child, 18, behind the wheel of a convertible, with the two of them enjoying some mother-and-son time together.
In the clip, Britney sat in the passenger seat while her son drove them around with the top down.
At one point, Britney panned the camera to show Jayden behind the wheel - but many viewers were left outraged that the teen was seen holding his phone and looking down to check it while driving.
Clearly thrilled to be spending time with Jayden, the Toxic songstress also stroked his hair while he had his eyes on the road.
Captioning the clip, which was set to Lenny Kravitz 's hit Fly Away, Britney gushed: 'He is fix-foot-three and his hands are so big now!
'How long am I going to be in shock? It's so incredibly crazy, it's not even funny! I'm blessed! Just please be careful with my heart too!'
Eagle-eyed social media users were furious to see that Jayden appeared to be pre-occupied while driving and called out both mother and son for being 'distracted.'
Taking to Reddit, one social media user said: 'These are screenshots from the video as he's driving down the road with Britney in the passenger seat…
'Britney, once again, needs a "mother of the year" award for being so stupid as to let her son do this AND post the evidence for the world to see.'
'Not good Brit,' another replied. 'Not good. No one had eyes on the road.'
A third pointed out: 'The touching his hair while he's driving is also dangerous.'
While it is unclear which state Britney and Jayden were travelling in, in California, where she lives, it's generally illegal to hold a cell phone while driving, except for emergencies.
Drivers 18 and older can use hands-free devices like Bluetooth or speakerphone but cannot cover both ears.
Britney shares sons Sean Preston, 19, and Jayden James with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, whom she was married to from 2004 to 2007.
The singer reunited with both her children in November after almost three years apart.

Over Christmas, Britney called Jayden her 'twin' as she proudly shared snaps of him on Instagram.
Alongside a trio of images showing off her youngest son, Britney said: 'Mine forever!
'It's weird we're like twins but he's a boy and I'm a girl! He's mine I hadn't seen him in two-and-a-half years or maybe three. I'm in shock!'
She continued: 'He came back and he feels older and smarter than me! He's a man and I cry everyday of my life because of the miracle and genius he is! When he plays the whole earth shakes!'
The images featured Jayden on what looked like a hike, wearing a red t-shirt and oversized blue jeans.
A month before, in November 2024, a source revealed to Page Six that Britney had reunited with Jayden after years of estrangement.
At the time, the insider shared that they had been 'spending a lot of time together.'
However, Sean Preston was still in Hawaii at the time of the reunion.
'Britney is thrilled to have her baby back. Everything is moving in the right direction,' the source stated.
Jayden reportedly reached out to his mother and an insider also told Us Weekly that he 'is spending time back in California but does not live with Britney.'
