If these pictures had Brown smoking with her daughter right next to her, or wearing a bikini and drinking champagne at Angel's 1st birthday party, then yes, that is making a pretty big parenting faux pas. But to be seen with one glass of champagne and one cigarette while her daughter is not present does not make her a bad mother. Why is the bikini relevant, anyways? If skimpily dressing makes you a bad mother, I can't wait to see the post where Heidi Klum is revealed as the terrible mother she is for walking in the Victoria's Secret fashion show a couple of months ago. The only thing about this is that drinking can mess up breast feeding, but I dont know how long women breast feed, some babies simply refuse their mothers milk and need formula, and it's incredibly rude and assuming to decide that she does or doesnt breastfeed because its personal. Basically, this post is dumping on someone for some nonexistant crime, and it's silly.

It seems like the author of this post was REALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel. Is Katherine Heigl a bad wife for smoking? Oh, is Posh Spice a bad mother for smoking? Why are we judging Melanie Brown as a mother first, anyways?

So she took an afternoon of relaxation...big deal. And, it's not like she's blowing smoke in her kids' faces - if being a smoker makes you a bad parent then millions of kids in this country have bad parents as well. He's taking his anger out on her by refusing to see or bond with his own flesh and blood, his daughter. That's sick.
