Richards: 'Kids on TV is a no-win situation'

Denise Richards is caught in a "no-win situation" over her decision to include her children in her upcoming reality show - insisting she has to involve them to prove she is a good mother.Denise Richards is caught in a "no-win situation" over her decision to include her children in her upcoming reality show - insisting she has to involve them to prove she is a good mother.

The actress was previously criticised by her ex-husband Charlie Sheen and his fiancee Brooke Mueller for allowing the former couple's young daughters - three-year-old Sam and Lola, two - to take part in the series, titled 'Denise Richards: It's Complicated'.

But Richards, 37, is convinced there will always be controversy regarding the toddlers' involvement with the programme.



She tells US magazine Redbook: "If I have my kids on my show, I'm exploiting them. If I don't, people will think I'm not a hands-on mum. That's why it's very important to me that the girls are part of it."

But despite going against Sheen's wishes, the 'Wild Things' star admits she doesn't want her kids "ever to feel torn between" their parents, adding: "Charlie is their dad, so if I insult their father it's an insult to them."

The series, produced by American Idol host Ryan Seacrest, is set to debut on US TV on May 26.
