You have to do right by them, even if it costs you your relationship with their mother.

Case in point. Unsurprisingly, her conclusions are all wrong; moms who take their preadolescent daughters to runway shows are only helpless victims of a domineering husband that secretly wants to see his 10 year old as a swimsuit model.

The real problem is that of a father who has abdicated his parenthood role by allowing it. Dads; trust your instincts, and don't delegate your responsibility.
