online, there's a little blurb that says:

When reached for comment about Ms. Burden’s recollections relating to their divorce and custody of their children, Ms. Burden’s ex-husband provided the following response:

“While I disagree with many of her recollections, as well as her overall mischaracterization of my relationship with my children, I do not wish to comment in more detail in order to protect them from further violations of their privacy other than to say that I continue to lovingly support, and be lovingly supported by, my children.”[/quote]

Yeah. That's a lie. Perhaps one he believes himself.[/quote]

You don't know that. None of us do. [/quote]

He would have easy evidence to the contrary if it existed in the form of legal documents, and his lawyers would have produced it prior to the book being published, since he knew she was going to say that. [/quote]

Why?  Seems like he doesn’t want to air his dirty laundry. A public fight is low class. She obviously needs the money or has a screw loose for the book. [/quote]

Because if she were lying about the custody thing or the size of his new place, that's so easily provable that the publisher would not have published it if his lawyers had sent a letter with that evidence. It wouldn't have needed to be especially public.

Previous commenters are correct that he's not actually contesting that he had no interest in custody, just that the kids don't hate him. [/quote]

+1. These kinds of books are carefully vetted by publishers these days. [/quote]
