Mother Knows Best? Phaedra Parks Slams Critics Who Say She Should Take Kids To Visit Dad Apollo In Jail
April 24 2015, Updated 8:49 a.m. ET
Pheadra Parks’ imprisoned husband Apollo Nida has not seen his children in the seven months since he entered prison, and it looks like he’ll have to wait much longer for a reunion. Parks spoke out in her Bravo blog today to insist she won’t be bringing their kids — Ayden, 4, and Dylan, nearly 2 — to visit.
"Despite the fact that I’m on a reality show, there are some things in my life that are off-limits," Parks wrote in her Bravo blog.
"People who watch the show only get one slice of the entire Phaedra pie, and it’s unfair to make judgments about someone, or a situation, without having all the information."
The reality star defended her choice to keep them from their father, writing that she knows what she is doing.
"The one thing I will say is that every single decision I make is based on one thing: the well-being of my two boys. It’s easy for people to ask why she did that or why she isn’t doing this, but the simple truth is unless you are in that situation yourself, you really can’t make that judgment," she insisted.
"I do my best to make smart decisions after carefully considering all options and consulting with experts and others who advise me. I know in my heart that everything I do is based on what is best for my children.
Nida spoke out earlier this week to beg Parks to bring them, insisting he needs "that support."
