Thank you Mary!!

That is the voice of a little man who is not used to taking orders. I think he wrote the book on “Do you know who I am?”

He probably treats his dog better.

The whole thing has kind of an eerie OJ feel about it. Maybe thats whey they went public.

[Taxachusan]

The call makes it clear that she just didn’t answer the phone when he was supposed to call. Maybe her battery died. Maybe she forgot her phone. Maybe the ringer was off. Maybe she didn’t want to deal with her psycho father. Probably the latter---she didn't want to take his call. From the sound of it there's no telling what he's put her through before this

Or maybe, I don't know, she was sleeping LOL? That's where my 11 year old daughter is at 10 PM. Who in the world makes a phone date with a child that age at 10 PM? He couldn't have woken is behind up 2 hours earlier?

“Once again, I have made an ass of myself trying to get to a phone.”

What happened to the cell phone?

[Blue Turtle]

...and Kim Basinger is the innocent victim. What has she called her kid? What has the kid called her parents? We know NOTHING...but the tape the ex-wife maliciously released.

Complete BS. WE DO KNOW that this psycho left a very disturbing to a 12 year old girl! That's enough. Don't project YOUR personal issues onto this problem. The man has a HISTORY of physical violence against others and this is a small glimpse into this evil little man's brain.

[Blue Turtle]

Don’t project your personal issues on me, pal. You know nothing about the situation at all. All YOU know is what the drive-by media has told you.

[bray]

This is the type of behavior Hollywhacked wants for the rest of America.

Pray for W and Our Troops

[Aliska]

I realized my mistake after I reread the thing. Thank you for clueing me in on the finer points. We had a hot recording I mean voice mail similar to that from an ex, man, better not go there.

[TucsonDevilBlues]

Are you ok? Ten deep breaths might be in order here. Relax, my man.

My personal issue is with ANYONE who is unable to see the naked hatred and abusive personality capable of sending a message to like this to a CHILD...This message board is a defacto court of public opinion. Baldwin is an abusive punk. This is one of several instances where he has exposed himself. There is NOTHING contextual or circumstancial to justify that type of message to a CHILD...PERIOD....

[CheneyChick]

Alec Baldwin is the spoiled little pig. He is so self-focused and it is all about him - it is in his own words.

If I were the kid, I wouldn’t be looking forward to his visit or his tirades - he’s promised as much. Save it, Dad.

What a jerk.

[Sloopy]

Daddy dearest.

Sounds like the type of abuse individuals with (NPD) Narcissistic Personality Disorder dish out.

[Finny]

This guy should just let go, not call. Let the kids come to him.

See, that's the thing. For way too many non-custodial dads who aren't assholes to their kids but whose ex-wives manipulate children into happily disrespecting dad and his time, what you suggest IS THE SENSIBLE THING for everyone's sanity, including the kids, but society, the kids, and certainly the Ex will glom onto this like flies on crap as "proof" that Dad "just doesn't care! He never calls, he never makes an effort!" Either way, dad loses.

The “man” is selfish and immature. but ...... I have been through a divorce, and I know how a mother can manipulate the children. Its SOP for women. This is dirty laundry, and only his.
I guarantee the flip side of this, what the mother did to manipulate the child into getting him so mad, is just as ugly.

Agreed. Baldwin is hot-headed and loses his temper easily (isn't anger one of the seven deadly sins? Envy is another by the way ... and wasn't that what that little Super-Turd-Schmuck Cho wholeheartedly embraced as his excuse for killing "rich kids"?). Baldin is immature, and there is ZERO excuse for using that language on an 11-year-old kid ...

.... but ... at the same time, I too have seen up-close the disgusting manipulation that ex-wives will do with children in order to make them resent their dad as much as the Ex does. Baldwin was WRONG WRONG WRONG, but that doesn't mean he was the only adult player here who was WRONG WRONG WRONG. Had Basinger said to her kid way before this disgusting loss of temper from Baldwin ever happened, "Now dammit, you knew your Dad was going to call -- where where you? You need to respect his time and to let him love you, and you owe him an apology for not being there when he called. You need to go to your room and think about this, young lady, and treat your dad with more consideration." HAD Basinger done this, probably this phone call would never have happened in the first place to even be recorded, and the kid would be happier in her heart with a decent relationship with her dad.

See my post 135 above. All Blue Turtle is doing is pointing out the likelihood that BOTH parents are villains here, not just Baldwin. The fact that Maverick68 responds so defensively to that idea indicates to me that it’s Mav, not Blue Turtle, who’s projecting personal issues.

[Starter]

I can’t think of any instance where this is justified.

I can think of a couple.
* The daughter accidentally sets fire to someone else's home.
* Baldwin discovers that his daughter's doing her best to emulate Drew Barrymore at that age. (i.e. heavy drug use and drinking like a fish.)
* Baldwin discovers that his daughter is dating and is sexually active. (And yes, there are some sexually active 11 year olds.)

Is it likely that any of these are the case? Probably not. I'd say there's a 90% chance that Baldwin's over reacting to something minor. But there are some *very* messed up kids out there. And if Ireland is one of those kids, then Baldwin's tirade becomes much more understandable.

(But I'd bet the other way.)

Wrong. Try again. There is no justification for calling your 12 year old daughter a pig. Especially contextually, where Baldwin reveals the source of his anger, i.e. his "humiliation". I am not divorced. I was not abused by my parents. If I'm projecting anything it's a love of children and a disdain for this behaviour or any amount of defense of, or trying to read reason into said behaviour..
