I don’t think anyone on here is saying it’s shameful to be in therapy. I think if the girls need to be that’s fine but I think what most of us are trying to say is they probably would not need to be if their parents just stopped bickering back and forth and tried amicably (excuse the spelling) to work things out behind closed doors and not in the public!! And I agree with those that said Charlie and Denise should be in counseling as well. They’re the one’s that really need to learn how to deal with their anger towards each other!!

Denise has actually done a public service announcement without even knowing it. She is basically a walking poster for what not to do with your kids. If that sounds harsh, it is meant to. These two bird brains don’t have a clue. Therapy can be helpful- maybe they should try it. And please stop telling us every sad detail of your poor girls’ lives!

I have to say, I watched an episode of Denise’s show and she is a bit ridiculas. I am hoping she doesn’t swear around her children like she does on that show. I think the same these two need to leave there children out of the press and stop talking! Stop making passive aggressive remarks because these little girls are going to be harassed by the press even more because the media is going to want to see how these kids turned out. Move away from that area like Demi and Bruce if you have to. I just think they want to put there kids first but don’t know how and they need to be in therapy but I do think its good for the girls because art therapy is where children draw and you can see how they view things just by having them explain there drawings. Ok enough of my rant. I just hope these girls turn out to be strong women!

I don’t think Denise deserves a big bow and applauses for placing her kids in therapy. She, along with Charlie, is the reason they need therapy in the first place. There is nothing embarrassing about going to therapy, the embarrassing thing here is that the parents are the sole cause of it being needed.

I saw an episode of It’s Complicated the other night and no wonder those girls are in therapy. Denise keeps proclaiming she is protecting her kids but she sets such an appalling example with her swearing etc. I obviously don’t know these people but maybe Cahrlie Sheen is being unfairly labelled as the ‘bad’ parent in this?

I’m so sick of these two picking at each other and then involving the media hinting (or flat out accusing) that the other parent of messing up their kids.

Is Denise telling everyone about the therapy in hopes that people will get upset with Charlie? I wish both of them would get over their issues, grow up. Lola and Sam act more mature than their parents.

Maybe it’s just because she is older and more aware, but Sam seems a bit overwhelmed on the reality show and maybe just her whole situation (she is really attached to her lovey) whereas Lola seems unruffled by anything.

Re: SM’s post

Oh, that explains therapy for Denise. Good on her that she used her show to publicize her therapy. *rolls eyes*

While it is indeed better to hear that Denise is taking responsibility and seeking help, it is just still not right for her to use the media to say things like this about her children. Their lives are tough enough as it is without the world knowing they’re kinda messed up what with their parents pointing fingers at each other in public.

I hope this doesn’t backfire on Denise in the future when those girls read media
archives and see how much their mum “exploited” them.

*sighs again*

I don’t see anything wrong with her admission, if anything, good for her for being able to admit that she’s provided her kids an outlet to talk about their feelings!

How many people have talked about how she doesn’t do right by the kids, playing armchair critics, so this woman is forced to put this information out there to defend her parenting.

Denise is like Britney Spears, darned if she does and darned if she doesn’t. Had Charlie announced this or a third party, then Denise would be attacked for not being “honest” with people about the girls therapy. She tells the truth to explain how the girls cope with the divorce, she’s a media whore. No matter what she does, she’s in the wrong.

If anyone watches her show, she is in extensive therapy, especially for the death of her mom.

Did anyone watch this week? Lola was SO CUTE saying grandma was her angel (and then the accidental burping!)
