More Celebs Who Slammed Their Kids

(Newser) – Courtney Love called her 17-year-old daughter “deceptive” and “deluded” on Facebook—and that certainly wasn't the first time a celebrity has lashed out at a child. The Frisky lists a few other trainwrecky parent-child relationships:

  • Michael Lohan: He’s made a name for himself by discussing estranged daughter Lindsay’s problems with anyone who will listen, not to mention leaking taped conversations with—and about—her.

  • Alec Baldwin: Possibly the most well-known of the bad celebrity parents, he famously called daughter Ireland a “rude, thoughtless pig” in a voicemail leaked by ex-wife Kim Basinger.
  • Jon Voight: He went on Access Hollywood to tell the world that then-estranged daughter Angelina Jolie needed help for her “mental problems.”

I wonder what kind of people would come out publicly and disparage their own children. It makes you wonder if any of these celebrities have a heart....it's already obvious they don't have a soul.
