Baldwin recorded his seven-year struggle to remain part of the life of his daughter in his 2008 book, written with Mark Tabb, A Promise to Ourself: A Journey Through Fatherhood and Divorce. Baldwin argues that after their separation in December 2000, his ex-wife, Kim Basinger, tried to deny him access to his daughter by refusing to discuss parenting, blocking visits, not giving phone access, not following court orders, not escorting their daughters away for convenience , and immediately lobbied the child. He argues that he spent more than $ 1.5 million in that effort. Baldwin called this parental alienation syndrome.
Baldwin has called lawyers in the "opportunist" case, and has characterized Basinger psychologists as part of the "divorce industry". He has blamed them more than Basinger, and wrote, "In fact, I blame my ex-wife for at least what has happened, he is a person, like most of us, doing the best he can with what he has. the litigants, and therefore, the people who enter the courtroom and never offer anything other than what is served there.No menu is missing. "Baldwin writes that he spent more than a million dollars, should take time out of his career , had to travel a lot, and needed to find a home in California (he lives in New York), so he could stay at his daughter's home life.

He argues that the tape was sold to TMZ who released the recording, despite laws against publishing media related to minors without the consent of both parents. Baldwin admits he made a mistake, but asked not to be judged as a parent based on a bad moment. He later confessed to Playboy in June 2009 that he was contemplating suicide over a leaked voicemail to the public. From that incident, he said, "I speak with many professionals, who help me.If I commit suicide, [ex-wife Kim Basinger's] side will assume that victory destroy me is their acknowledged destination."
