Alec Baldwin Calls His Daughter a Thoughtless Pig

Alec Baldwin has spewed threats and insults to his 11-year-old daughter, Ireland, calling her a "thoughtless little pig," and bashing her mother Kim Basinger. A family law judge was so alarmed after hearing the tape, she has temporarily barred Baldwin from having any contact with his child.
After Ireland failed to answer her father's scheduled morning phone call from New York on April 11, Alec went berserk on her voice mail, saying "Once again, I have made an ass of myself trying to get to a phone," adding, "you have insulted me for the last time."
Switching his train of thought, Baldwin then exercised his incredible parenting skills and took a shot at his ex-wife, declaring, "I don't give a damn that you're 12-years-old or 11-years-old, or a child, or that your mother is a thoughtless pain in the ass who doesn't care about what you do." The irate Baldwin went on to say, "You've made me feel like s**t" and threatened to "straighten your ass out."
"This crap you pull on me with this goddamn phone situation that you would never dream of doing to your mother," screamed Baldwin, "and you do it to me constantly over and over again."
Before hanging up, Baldwin warned the child, "You better be ready Friday the 20th to meet with me." That's tomorrow.
The Los Angeles County Superior Court commissioner Maren Nelson heard the tape and temporarily suspended Baldwin's visitation rights. A hearing is set for May 4, where the judge could permanently deny Baldwin visitation or contact with Ireland.
Basinger's publicist, Annette Wolfe, told TMZ: "The voicemail speaks for itself."
A friend of Alec Baldwin's contacted TMZ to say that the actor called Ireland last week and apologized for his outburst. The friend added that Ireland is the most important thing in the world to Alec and that he is frustrated because over the last six years, Kim has "tried everything" to alienate Ireland from him.
Alec Baldwin released a statement stating, "In the best interest of the child, Alec will do what the mother is pathologically incapable of doing ... keeping his mouth shut and obeying the court order. The mother and her lawyer leaked this sealed material in violation of a court order. Although Alec acknowledges that he should have used different language in parenting his child, everyone who knows him privately knows what he has been put through for the past six years."

wow, scary even for a grown woman to hear, i can only imagine how an 11 year old girl would feel!!!
OMG! Everyone needs to mind their own damn business! This happens every day in court and do we hear about it on EVERY channel? No! There are some many things that happen to children or are said to kids that we never hear about! Leave Baldwin alone to sort out this mess, taking his parental rights away is not only going to hurt him, but hurt his relationship with his daughter in the long run. How many parents out there haven't said something they shouldn't have or something they regret? If you say you haven't your a bold face liar!!! Just because he's famous doesn't mean he should be put on a pedestal and held to a higher standard than people who aren't in the spot light or crucified for making a bad choice! Shame on you Kim for letting this be released! You are no better than Alec for using your child this way!!!
