In the midst of a tense situation like last night, it's good to know that Britney Spears can still count on her mother!

As their daughter broke down in front of the cameras last night, Britney Spears' parents rushed to her side to take care of their daughter.

We caught Britney being taken to Long's Drug Store by her mother Lynne late last night. Unfortunately, neither mother nor daughter had any comment on the evening's events - or even on the happy subject of their reconciliation.

Of course, Lynne wasn't the only one to come to Britney's aid - the mother-daughter duo was accompanied by Britney's loyal friend Sam Lutfi and mutual friend Chad Hardcastle.

At least Brit's got a devoted support network around her - family and friends like these ought to give her the strength to make it through tough times like last night!
