Denise Richards stepped up to the plate to care for her ex-husband Charlie Sheen‘s twin sons, Max and Bob, 4, after authorities removed the young boys from mom Brooke Mueller‘s home. While Brooke is recovering back in rehab, the fate of her young sons hangs in the balance.

Judge Orders Denise To Care For Charlie & Brooke’s Twins

The Los Angeles Department of Child and Family Services deemed Brooke’s home an unsafe environment for Max and Bob, and placed the precious boys with Denise and their half-siblings, Sam, 9, and Lola, 7.

Although it was just a temporary arrangement, a judge ruled on May 7 that the kids should stay with Denise for now, according to TMZ. It’s not clear if the kids will return to Brooke’s care once she leaves rehab, but she was awarded full custody of the kids after she and Charlie split in 2011.

Brooke Muller Given ‘Many Opportunities’ To Keep Custody Of Sons

The former model has been in and out of rehab in the past, and a source told RadarOnline.com that authorities grew tired of Brooke failing to provide a stable environment for her kids.

“Brooke was given many opportunities by social workers to clean up her act. Social workers felt that Bob and Max weren’t safe in Brooke’s care. The decision was made late on Thursday afternoon, and the boys are no longer in Brooke’s care. It’s expected at some point the boys will be taken care of by Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife, Denise Richards, who has cared for them in the past when Brooke went to rehab,” a source tells RadarOnline.com.

What do YOU think of a judge ruling the boys to stay with Denise for now, HollyMoms? Are you shocked?

Brooke Mueller has a history of drug use, and her dangerous addiction has finally led the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services to remove her 4-year-old boys, Max and Bob, from her house.

Charlie Sheen’s Kids Staying With Denise Richards

The former model, who welcomed the young twins with her ex-husband Charlie Sheen, was awarded custody of their children in 2011. But in a surprising twist, the boys are staying with Charlie’s other ex-wife — Denise Richards, who was awarded temporary custody.

“Brooke was given many opportunities by social workers to clean up her act. Social workers felt that Bob and Max weren’t safe in Brooke’s care. The decision was made late on Thursday afternoon, and the boys are no longer in Brooke’s care. It’s expected at some point the boys will be taken care of by Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife, Denise Richards, who has cared for them in the past when Brooke went to rehab,” a source tells RadarOnline.com.

Denise Richards Cared For Brooke Mueller’s Kids In The Past

Denise took care of the twins previously when Brooke was in rehab in 2012, and Denise says she wants the boys to be with his siblings, her daughters Sam and Lola.

“They’re our family and they’re Sam and Lola’s brothers, and I can’t imagine growing up without my sister, so anytime she needs help, I’m there for the boys,” Denise told Access Hollywood at the time. “[Sam and Lola] are the best big sisters to [the boys] and they love them. I know it doesn’t seem normal, but it is our normal. They’re little kids and I love children, and like I said, it’s our daughter’s brothers, so I can’t say no.”

We hope Brooke and Charlie’s children are safe and OK, and that Brooke seeks the treatment she needs. What do YOU think of Denise having temporary custody of Charlie’s kids, HollyMoms? Do you think that’s good?

Brooke Mueller, the infamous ex-wife of Charlie Sheen, was rushed to the hospital on the morning of Dec. 7 after what was thought to be an overdose on drugs. The L.A. City Fire Department transported Brooke from her home in Tarzana, CA to a nearby hospital at 11:42 AM, according to TMZ.

Multiple sources close to Brooke tell the website that she has been abusing drugs for several weeks and people around her were “deeply concerned.” Her rep, Steven Honig, however, was singing a different tune. He told TMZ:

“An assistant thought Brooke was non-responsive while she was napping and hastily called an ambulance. As a precaution, Brooke was brought to a local hospital and discharged after an hour. She was diagnosed with exhaustion and dehydration and is now fine and resting at home. That’s it.”

Brooke has publicly struggled with addiction for some time, totaling more than 15 stays in rehab.

Do you believe it was on overdose or just exhaustion and dehydration, HollywoodLifers?

The actor seems to be a new man in recent weeks, moving his ex-wives and their kids into his LA neighborhood — and snubbing a wild party to celebrate his 46th birthday with his two families. But can he keep up the good dad routine?

Experts say NO and warn Charlie Sheen is setting up daughters Sam,7, Lola, 5 and two-year-old twin sons Bob and Max for a psychological “roller coaster” by making them promises he most likely can’t keep!Beverly Hills-based celebrity psychiatrist Dr. Carole Lieberman isn’t convinced Charlie has changed at all, after his meltdown earlier this year.

She tells HollyBaby.com exclusively, “Charlie is still on a hypomanic roller coaster and needs to be in intensive psychotherapy. He is self-obsessed and is only able to think about what will give Charlie pleasure – not what is best for his kids.”

She’s particularly scathing of his decision to attend one birthday party with Denise Richards, Sam and Lola and another with Brooke Mueller, Bob and Max.

“Having two birthday parties is a prime example of this,” Dr. Lieberman adds. “What fun for Charlie. And yes, the kids enjoyed sharing his birthday with him, but what about the other 364 days?”

Her advice for Charlie? Seek help and start being a good dad for real! “Charlie wants to be a good dad,” she adds, “But he is inadvertently dragging his kids – and apparently his exes – along with him on this psychological roller coaster which needs to be stopped by psychotherapy and medication!”

Dr. Susan Abbott, a pediatric psychiatrist based in Manhattan, agrees that there’s no way Charlie has “snapped out” of his “manic” episode without professional help and that his “inconsistent” approach to parenting is harmful.

“Kids often derive a lot of self-esteem for the attention their father pays them,” she explains.

“To have a dad in and out of your life is a roller coaster. It’s really, really rough on kids to be told daddy’s coming and they don’t show up.”

But there is hope for Charlie: “He is someone who needs to be under professional care,” Dr. Abbott notes. “With professional care, he could turn everything around.”

That’s what the experts say, HollyMoms — what do you think? Can Charlie keep it up — or is going to let those kids down again?

There were no porn stars or prostitutes at this birthday bash. Instead the hell-raising TV star chose to mark the occasion with two family friendly — and booze free — dinner dates with his exes and their kids!

First up for Charlie Sheen, who turned 46 on Sept. 3, was a meal on Saturday with Denise Richards and their daughters Sam, 7 and Lola, 6 — followed the next night by dinner with ex wife Brooke Mueller and two-year-old twin sons Bob and Max. Sounds like Charlie’s finally getting his priorities right. Do you think he’s a changed man?

Charlie’s never been on better terms with his exes, who he recently moved into new houses close to his own LA home.

After Saturday’s dinner, he tweeted at Denise, cooing, “Love you and the girls..!!! Thanks for a great birthday dinner!! Great night! xo c RT @DENISE_RICHARDS Happy Birthday @charliesheen !”

And he was back on top form the following night for a cozy dinner at the Buca di Beppo Italian restaurant in Encino, Ca. with Brooke, Bob and Max. He even posed for photos, showing off a dinner table packed with delicious food and not a single alcoholic drink in sight!

After stuffing his belly for a second night straight, Charlie took to Twitter once again to tell fans, “Celebrated B-day at @bucadibeppo w/ the boys, Brooke & a bunch of family & friends. Huge portions, stellar staff. We will B back soon..!!! (sic)”

It’s great that Charlie chose to spend his birthday weekend with his children and we hope this is a sign he’s ready to become a real dad to Sam, Lola, Bob and Max.

Do you trust him not to let them down, HollyMoms?

It’s been an eventful year for Charlie Sheen… to say the least — but he’s made it to another birthday!

The dad of five has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, after trashing a hotel room, getting himself fired from Two-And-A-Half Men and shacking up with two porn stars.His parenting credentials have also been brought in to question –with the suggestion he’s gone weeks without seeing Bob and Max, his two year old twins with Brooke Mueller.

He’s also spent the last year battling with both his baby mamas, Brooke and Denise Richards — the mother of his daughters Sam, 7 and Lola, 5.

But somehow Charlie seems to have pulled it all together in recent weeks.

There’s talk of a a new TV show, a reconciliation with recent ex Brooke and even Denise is singing his praises.

Most recently he moved both his families into houses right next door to his LA home — just in time for a special birthday party in his honor!

We hope Charlie has a great birthday and gets the chance to celebrate with ALL his kids!
