Charlie Sheen still slinging the mud
Filed under: Just For Moms, Just For Dads, Divorce & Custody, Celeb Kids, Celeb Parents
Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards will not win any prizes for negotiating a civil divorce. It's been messy from the beginning, with Denise dumping Charlie while pregnant with their child. I don't know that it was ever determined just what brought about the end of the marriage, but I think it is safe to say that whatever it was, Denise is still mad about it.
Due to a court order, Sheen cannot see the ex-couple's two daughters, Sam and Lola, outside of the presence of two nannies, who must be approved by Richards. But when Richards substituted a real nanny for her assistant last week, Sheen balked. Out loud and in print. "Until I'm granted the ability to hire my own nanny, she is required to provide one and I was terribly insulted that she felt her 'assistant' was a suitable replacement," the actor said in a statement.
Sheen, who is now engaged to Brooke Mueller, goes on to say, "If it's unfortunate that I'm speaking, it's 'unfortunate' that an incredibly loving and responsible father and his terrifically capable fiancee are being subjected to these transparent and unnecessary sanctions, that have nothing to do with responsible co-parenting and everything to do with punishment and control."
I agree, it is unfortunate that he is speaking. His statement may sway public opinion, but what difference could that possibly make to their children? I think they both need to grow up.

nicolebarber said...Alec and Charlie need to get on a boat together and go sailing in the wind. Both talk about how there rights have been violated as Dad's but for some insane reason the courts seem to agree with the mothers. Don't forget to add Bobby Brown in the boat.
If the truth would only reveal its self then we would know the truth.

Jake Hollister said...This publicity is good in the interest of men's rights. He is the victim of a judicial system that is prejudicial against fathers. Judges cloak their behavior behind "the best interest of the children" excuse. Thank God, that unlike a lot of men, he has the funds to continue to fight this vindictive witch.

The court should give these two a reality check and take these children away. Assign a guardian to handle these kids while these two pea brains hash it out. How old are these two again. GROW UP!!

Oh wait some people want to compare a cocaine snorting wife beater like Bobby Brown to Alec Baldwin and Charlie Sheen, two guys that have done nothing more then been found guilty of Felony Divorce. The reason the courts have taken their parents rights away is because we are stupid enough to allow judges to steal ANYONES rights away. How would you feel if you did nothing to hurt your marriage but you come home one day and your spouse has taken all your money, your furniture and your kids and leaves a note that says I no longer love you. These courts are stealing kids from good loving parents every day only because we allow the Government to financially support legal kidnapping.
