Kim's Lawyer -- Alec Doesn't Have a Clue

166. Kim is a "has-been" actress known for her part in 91/2 weeks. Allowing this tape to be heard by all shows how shallow this woman really is. Perhaps Alec has been right all along, Kim is not able to be a mother. All three of them need rehab immediately. SueA

167. Where is Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson boycotting Kim? They seem to be very very quiet. Anna

168. Rehab with the Hollywood set is in order. I have never seen such dysfunctional people as I have seen during the last months.

169. Shame on Kim and TMZ for putting this out to the public. Kim should lose custody for trying to hurt the father daughter relationship!!!!!

171. How can any mother brainwash a child in these circumstances?

The father goes on national tv, makes fun of a very sensitive pre-teen girl, makes her look foolish and idiotic in front of the world, then immediately calls her and expects lovey-dovey from her? She could have either answered the phone and expressed her feelings or she could simply not answer. Many children at that age are not prepared to express their feelings in an adult fashion.

Wait, Alec Baldwin can't express his feelings in an adult fashion so why should his child?

We really don't know why the phone wasn't answered. Maybe it was turned off, dead battery, not within range of hearing. All these things happen to me frequently so I depend on voice mail to return calls that I missed. Maybe Dad should have waited to see if that was the case.

Sounds like they have a long history of child not answering father's calls. I know of other families where this is the case. It resulted from things the father did, not the mother brainwashing the child. Children have their own minds and know who makes them feel good.

Worst thing a father can do is to talk ugly about a girl's mother. She gets her identify from her mother and when Dad puts her down, it's an irreparable wound.

Hope that the world will start believing families and wives when they say that the man is different at home, not the smiling, kind, polite face he puts out to the world but behind closed doors, sometimes becomes a monster. Too often we hear, "but he's so nice out in public. How is it possible for him to change so much? Must be the family causing him to change." Really? Do people actually believe that?

172. This is CLASSIC!

Alec is the abuser. He's the cause of all of his misfortune, and his marriage resulting in divorce, but he's the VICTIM... BI-POLAR!

Kim filled for the divorce, not him. He's stuck in his misery and discontent, because he doesn't know who he is and what he wants, and what he thought was the best thing ever, he f***ed up, but is not his fault.... RIGHT!

Alec suffers from bi-polar syndrome. He is not the victim and nor responsible for his actions. His actions are the result of what people have made him do, he's innocent... RIGHT!

All the while Kim, has only tried to get away from him. She filed for divorce because she couldn't bear or deal with the continued abuse (verbal, emotional, mental and physical).
I'm sure that she had to make some drastic changes in order to protect herself and Ireland from his violent outburst, and unprovoked violence and verbal rampage, a lot like the what he expressed in the infamous VM.

Alec needs to accept that he needs help, and grow up. He's angry, bitter, and ignorant of his daughter's feelings and that of the continued damage he causes with his actions. And the sad part is that he may have caused unrepairable damage by now. There might be no turning back.

ALL OF THIS AND WHAT MAY COME IS SOLELY THE DIRECT RESULT OF HIS ACTIONS, MISTAKES AND CONTINUE IGNORANCE OF THE BASIC MORAL BEHAVIOR HE SHOULD PRACTICE WITH HIS DAUGHTER!!!!!!!

Kim, you continue to do what you must in order to keep your sanity and to protect your daughter from the animal you know he is.
If anyone in your camp leaked this, they did it to help you. Alec I'm sure can get a lot of people to testify on his behalf about his character, but it's what you can proof and discredit. This will ultimately help you to solidify your efforts in establishing how unstable he is. What a lier he has become, and how unfit he is to be a father with custody and/or unsupervised visitation.
He needs parenting classes and you may also get ordered to attend, but it's OK, go, it will empower you, he won't I guarantee it!

As for Ireland, she will make her own decisions and she on her own will get strong and do for herself what she most. You just teach her not to be afraid, to be true to her heart, and to always know that you will always be there and how the Judge will always assist her. Give her all the support she may need, including a mental health professional that will help her to express herself, and learn from within how to feel, what is right and she can do to respect her self and her feelings.

You'll do fine. Just another hurdle.

Unfortunately for you, just like other cases I know, Alec won't go away. Ireland is the only thing he has left. I'm sure that aside from his family he has no friends. He has no hobbies, and he does is talk to anyone who will listen about your bitter divorce and what a bitch you are. I'm sorry. No one can help you with this. Until he's ready to let go, accept his reality, and understand how his actions have resulted in his despair, nothing will change. And with that comes how he won't move on. That's because he can't let go. And the flip side to that is that until he gets better (if ever) he wont find anyone. He is not interested in moving on so he's not looking for anyone, and cycle continues. I'm sorry!

Stay strong, your daughter needs you, and be sure you will prevail!

173. This is just an example of where the BEST interest of the child may not have been a priority in the eyes of both parents. However, she will be an adult someday and make her own judgements.

174. Ireland will get over her Dad's anger. However she won't get over being kept away from him. Children need both parents. Parent Alienation Syndrome is where one parent tries to obstruct the other parents contact with the child in order to turn the child against the one who did not get primary custody. See www.fapt.org or gachildsupport.org for more information on the destruction of children's needs and rights to be with both parents in "family courts".

Who are you to decide Alec is Bi Polar? This is just sad when people think they know what another person is like, or what goes on in private. They had a court order that was ignored. Again shame on both Kim and TMZ!!!!!

177. Alec Baldwin is a hurt father who has tried for years to have a normal relationship with his daughter. Kim Basinger need to be on Medication for anxiety and depression as that is what I believe she suffers from. Not wanting a child to be close to her father is sick and very detrimental to the child. She will never pick a wonderful husband and father for her children if she doesn't have a nice relationship with her dad. It is a real shame that Kim Basinger has been allowed to poison their daughter. She is creating a horrible situation for years to come in that little girls life.

178. Every father lashes out at their kids and later apologizes - it's part of being a father (AND A KID). But what kind of mother would release that voicemail to the media to bring worldwide attention to it? Just to stack the deck so she'll "win" her custody case? And then this hiring a bodyguard stunt to bring even MORE attention and media? What do you think is more humiliating for this poor daughter -- getting an angry voicemail from her dad or having having a frenzied mob of paparazzis taking pictures of her and her "bodyguard" and having the media cover the situation? Not exactly mother of the year here, people. Point: Baldwin.
