I think we all know more than we care to about Denise Richards and her messy divorce with Charlie Sheen.  She publicly accused Sheen of hitting “an all-time low” after telling her to “die of cancer.” She’s discussed Sheen on The Today Show, Extra and everywhere else that will give her airtime.  And now, Richards is sending her kids to therapy to deal with the trauma of her divorce.

Denise Richards has sent her two young daughters to therapy sessions, fearing they’ll be scarred by their parents’ bitter divorce and ongoing war of words. The actress’ publicist has confirmed 4-year-old Sam and 3-year-old Lola are “in therapy,” according to “Access Hollywood.” Richards and her newly remarried ex, Charlie Sheen, rarely speak directly, but have feuded through their lawyers and on TV since they split in 2005. [SF Gate]

Isn’t having a  TV show called Denise Richards: It’s Complicated which puts Richards entire life on broadcast scarring as well? I think therapy is a great idea for this family, but perhaps a bit of privacy would help as well. Having your publicist announce to Access Hollywood that your kiddies are in treatment is kind of sad. I’m sure Sam and Lola will be discussing these and other such issues with their shrink.  For more on helping kids deal with divorce check takepart out http://www.helpguide.org/mental/children_divorce.htm
