Huffington Post via Perez Hilton, New York Post   |   April 10, 2008 08:48 AM



An article in "The Globe" — and featured on its cover — alleges that Rosie O'Donnell was caught bullying her 12-year old son Parker late last month. According to Perez Hilton, the article, which was headlined "Raging Rosie Bullies Her Boy," said Rosie was "abusive and stated she manhandled her 12 year old son. The article also claimed that Rosie was probably subjecting her other three children to emotional damage by verbally abusing her son in front of them."

Rosie vehemently denied the report through a publicist statement to the New York Post yesterday:

"The story is absolutely ludicrous and ridiculous," O'Donnell's publicist told NYPost.com. "There is no truth to it whatsoever."...

Her rep didn't say if O'Donnell was planning legal action against the tabloid, but did say the former daytime TV host works tirelessly on the behalf of children....

"I would put The Globe at the bottom of the bird cage," her publicist said.

Just look at some of the YOU TUBE vedios about "MOMS GETTING MAD" and see how far teenagers will go today just to push moms and dads buttons.

Beat those kids butts till they can't sit and get control of them.

The jails are full since Parents stopped spanking.

I can see where people would think that this boy is being abused, I mean, look at all the abuse that Rosie has heaped upon the rest of us all these years.

But yet you still visit her blog, read "trash" about her and you posted. Sounds like you are stalking Rosie!

Agreed, this photo just reminded me of every time I pissed my mom off when I was that age! and the last time I checked it wasn't a crime to be angry at your kids - and the globe sucks for doing this because that kid has to go to school and I'm sure his classmates are making fun of him for this so actually it appears the globe did more damage than Rosie;)

THE GLOBE is the paper that had "batboy" on the cover, isn't it? Come on.

Rosie, I don't believe the story.

Can we imagine what the context of the photo might be?

Is she pulling him away to protect him from annoying photographers?

Perhaps he just tried to do something to one of his siblings?

Maybe he started to walk in front of something dangerous?

It is absurd to think that a picture of a mom holding her son by the shirt constitutes abuse!

To all of you that defend Rosie let me tell you this. My mother is the spitting image of that monster in every aspect including sexuality. That boy is being abused. Maybe not physically, but to monsters like Rosie and my mother a son is an outlet for all the anger and disgust that they have towards men.

I am sure my post will draw the ire of all the PC and lesbian members of Huff, to that I say consider this. I am the prodigal son, I am the product of your lack of judgment. I feel that boys pain because it is my own.

You can attack the source, you can rant about all the money and resources Rosie devotes to children's programs. But a monster is a monster and a bad decision is still bad even if the victim has no voice.

"I am sure my post will draw the ire of all the PC and lesbian members of Huff, "

Oh yes look at all the angry comments pouring in. I'm guessing that very few folks will respond to your cry for attention. I'm neither overtly concerned with being "PC" nor a lesbian. I'm just a sucker for folks who are clearly as needy as you.

You have my sympathies for having an awful mother. But you really can't assume that your mother's abusive behavior is predictive of Rosie's (a woman that you've never met).

Most sadly, you seem to be hostile to lesbians while intimating that your mother is/was one. If you hate what she is, I think your forum is on a psychiatrist's couch, not an anonymous internet talkback site.

I have never found Rosie O'Donnell to be a pleasant or charming person. I have always wondered what ever propelled her into television stardom. So, why is she being trashed now? Could it have anything to do with her 9-11 conspiracy theories in which she challenges the government's explanation? Maybe she is a nut, but that's no excuse for making up lies about her.

I wept as I read this story.

I hope someone calls Child Protective Services and informs them of the abuse she's heaping on that poor child.

This is absurd nonsense, Parker is in the same class as my niece and I see Rosie and Kelly her significant other all the time at school functions and I can tell you from first hand experience that they are both very conscientious parents and are involved with the school programs and helping to set a positive agenda for the kids.

Rosie was also very helpful when the school was recently putting on a play and she volunteered to help with some of the direction, she gave my niece very helpful advise and I think she was inspirational to all the kids participating.

Yep they seem to need tabloid crappola ...

I expect Fox News or the Drudgereport to sensationalize this allegation. Why Huff PO? Got a vendetta against fat anti-war activists? Rosie did more to raise awareness about the War in Iraq than anyone on daytime TV.
