Alec, Kim and Ireland Out Over Weekend

166. This situation is a true tragedy for ALL parties involved. There is such deep pain in Alec's voice as he is expressing the continuous alienation that has been dealt him by non other than "Kim". She is using Ireland as leverage against Alec. He has spent way too much money $1.4ML in this court battle. Enough already. In actuality this voicemail had nothing to do w/Ireland, however, everything to do w/Kim. They are still emotionally tied to each other and the hatred/love they have for each other is huge. Kim and Alec need to be in counseling to work thru their love/hate feelings for each other. They are so angry(right now) w/each other, it overflows in their relationship w/Ireland. If Kim, the mother, of this dear child, leacked the message, she should be dragged and pulled by her hair in the Town Square, because, by doing the leaking, their child is ruined. She says she didn't do it. How about this? Perhaps, Ireland leaked it herself, for the attention, w/some coaching by her mom. My prayers go out to Alec as he's been on the bad end of this battle from day one, his daughter is his heart, how many fathers really put in this much effort to see their children? He should and deserves a medal and not to be punished for his well deserved outbreak. Many parents do exactly what he did, just not on the phone and made public, but in their homes. Alec, the best to you, May Yahweh give you favor in your court case on May 4, 2007. Be blessed.

167. Ireland has been going thru this nonsense over half of her life. Will someone never step in to save her??? She has no idea what a parent is. Both parents are so embroiled in their public war, that neither have a concern for anyone or anything. Kim will continue to use Ireland, to push Alec's buttons. And Alec will continue to go off the deep end. Until one day, we'll be reading of tragedy and all the signs that were 'missed'

168. Alec is an explosive, controlling, short-fused person. Kim noted this as one of the reasons she left him. It's called abuse verbally and physically. As the relationship progressed, she became afraid, stressed out at his outbursts and the control he had on her. What some people don't know is that Kim suffers from panic attacks and anxiety disorder. Living with someone like Alec must have been a living hell. She has just tried to protect her daughter.

169. I am sure the Judge will be lenient on Ms Bassinger, they typically go easy on the moms. that is why PAS is such a pervasive problem. if he had just yelled and not called her names, he'd have been ok. i am sure Mr Baldwin lacks anyone in his circle who might curb him when he spins out of control. there is nothing to justify his language, very unfortunate.

as to what ms. bassener is doing: it's a really bad thing, and one day will backfire on her, and she can expect a poor adult mother/daughter relationship, children are easy to manipulate, but grow up to be bitter adults. kim take heed!

170. After 6 yrs. this matter should have been settled. The Lawyers are making a fortune. Settle this now. The child is being affected emotionally. I am on the fathers side. He should however deal with Kims Lawyer and not the daughter.

171. I am a woman & in a father's rights group. I'm divorced, but act rationally & in the children's best interest which includes: informing their father of events, letting kids/Dad have phone access, never restricting visitations, NOT deleating emails, basically NONE of this nonsense. My current husband has been through the ringer because unstable & bitter ex-wives pull all the crap imaginable to "getback" at the father & put the kids in the middle. His ex even has the kids call & leave messages & she's in the background telling them what to say. They're usually crying. It amazes me. The courts stick up for the mother even with behavior like this. We see the courts aren't helping alec & he's HAD IT!!!! I don't blame him for being so MAD. He should not say his daughter is a pig etc. but when we get that angry...sometimes we say things we don't mean & are inappropriate! Come on...everyone's done it. Imagine having your worst moments "mysteriously leaked to the press"....EXACTLY the type of baloney Kim has been pulling all along. It's just another tactic. I hope it backfires on her BITTER, VENGEFUL, SELFISH BUTT!!! And that is coming from a CUSTODIAL MOTHER!!!

172. Alec probably does need mental help. When someone is TURNING your kid against you & keeping your kid from you (even phone calls)....that could make someone need help! What else could be WORSE????

173. Someone mentioned Alec should take parenting advice from Bruce Wilis...problem is BRuce Willis's ex is not a NUTCASE!!! Kim is causing these problems by being manipulative & controlling. Hope she's proud of herself...she wins! Unfortunately, the child LOSES!!!!

174. I don't think either parent really needs to be taking care of Ireland right now. Alec is stressed out from the fact of being pushed to the side. While Kim is using Ireland as a weapon againest Alec. I think that Ireland needs to be taken out of the whole thing for right now, & given supervisied visitation with both parents. Than find out who is really doing what. The fact that Alec said the things that he did on a voice-mail just proves that he is just to get his point across to Kim. I know as a parent myself I CHECK the VOICEMAIL MESSAGES, not my children. Plus, how else did the tape get leaked if it wasn't for Kim tring to come between Alec & Ireland. Kim is tring to turn Ireland againest her dad. I have yelled at my kids, & said things out of anger that I didn't mean. Alec is still better than most non-cos. parents out there. Look at my kids dad, he never calls, or visits them on a reg. basis. This is a private matter, that has no business being out in the public like it is. Who is really getting hurt the most in all of this.........IRELAND!!!!!!!! Every child needs both parents in thier lives.

175. #22 HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD.
THIS IS A PRIVATE MATTER AND NEEDS TO STAY PRIVATE. THE MEDIA OUTLETS SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR FANNING THIS.
JOURNALISM IS UTTERLY DISGUSTING.
IF THIS MAKES ALEC BALDWIN A BAD PARENT THEN I GUESS THAT IS HALF OF THE PARENT POPULATION IN THE WORLD.
