Everybody's busy casting stones at Alec Baldwin as if they're all parents of the year. Some should take a look at their own narcissistic kids. Yes, he went too far, lost his temper and probably would have realized that and apologized to his daughter. But, thanks to his ex-wife - who is, by no stetch of the imagination, a saint in leaking a message protected by a court order - he never got the chance to rectify his behavior with his daughter. The fact that this man is making a concerted effort to maintain a relationship with his child rather than dump her on the wayside, as quite a few men would do, seems to be lost on Kim Bassinger. Instead of teaching her child that embarrassing Dad can get them a little air time, a possible bargaining chip for the courtroom, (and probably a few giggles to boot,) she should be teaching her child to try to maintain a relationship with a father who has no doubt showered her with everything she wants. As the custodial parent, Kim needs to realize that this kid has two parents who love her and do a better job of fostering that concept in her daughter by making sure that Ireland is available, or at least, lets her Dad know why she isn't when it is their time to connect with each other.
