Not Smart Alec and SIMple Kim are Horrible Parents

And the Father of the Year Award goes to….not Alec Baldwin.

In a classic Ryan O’Neal move this week, Alec Baldwin screamed to the world, “I have a problem!” Oh, he didn’t use those exact words, of course. His words were more like, “You’re an inconsiderate little pig!” And let’s not forget, “You’re worthless.” And let’s really not forget he was talking to his daughter. His 12 year old daughter. Only he wasn’t talking to her. He was screaming, raging at her via cell phone voice mail.

Is this the behavior of a well parent or is this the behavior of a 14 year old with unfamiliar surges of testosterone coursing through his veins? I think Mr. Baldwin’s court battles may be over. I think any judge in his or her right mind would end any procedings that may have been started between these two individuals. Even though it’ll take a supreme act of God for this kid to be alright if she never sees EITHER of her parents again. What a couple of idiots.

For years we’ve been hearing the chilling details of the psychological napolm bomb that was, and apparently still is, the relationship between Alec Baldwin and Kim Bassinger. It seemed to have quieted down after the divorce some years ago but evidently these two very sick people don’t want to let it go.

She’s the classic tormented victim who loves every second of being treated like a fragile weirdo and he’s the poster child for uncontrolled rage–obviously.

By now everyone’s probably heard the replay of his tantrum. It was all over the radio at the end of this week. Word is she leaked it to the press. Great parenting on both parts. How about this, Kim? Take the thing to your attorney and don’t let another soul hear it. How about sparing the feelings of your daughter? Did you think about that? Or was it more important to soothe your own wounded ego by letting the whole country know how little respect your ex has for his daughter?

You’re a complete waste of flesh if you did leak this. And, if you don’t mind, I’d like to add FIFTY PLUS year-old flesh. Maybe it’s time to get real with a therapist and more importantly yourself instead of hiding behind this eccentric, fearful, isolating girl-woman persona you’ve been cloaking yourself in for years. It’s ridiculous at any age but, at yours, it’s somewhere far beyond ridiculous and, with any luck, this kind of nonsense should secure your daughter a worse place in mental health land than you’ve created for yourself.

Honestly, I don’t know what Kim and Alec’s diagnosable problems are. It could just be extremely bad chemistry but, even for Hollywood, this seems really bizarre. Most of them divorce and move on. These two are acting like every Monday morning news report of last night’s trailer park or ghetto murder-suicide you’ve ever seen. It makes me sick.

Both of them need to be remanded to serious counseling, not the kind you squeeze in between nail appointments and cocktails or smoothies. I think they should BOTH lose custody of the child until they can act like adults and they should have to work really, really hard to regain the priviledge of parenting her. Because obviously they don’t recognize her as anything more than a pawn in a twisted game. And that’s child abuse, pure and simple.
