I wonder if the kid can sleep through the night yet, in her own bed, and without being served juice all night. It's been 6 years so I hope there have been some changes in parenting.

Leah Remini's daughter hits the bottle all night long

In her role on The King of Queens, actress Leah Remini sees right through manipulative schemes and has a low tolerance for B.S. However, when it comes to dealing with her four-year-old daughter in real life, Remini is about as tough as a fresh marshmallow.
"I'm very consistent; I give in," Remini shared on the Rachel Ray show, "My daughter runs the house." Daughter Sofia drinks six to eight bottles during the night which means many runs to the refrigerator and diaper changes for Leah and her husband Angelo.
This is obviously going to be a huge struggle and not just because Sofia's bottle habit has been sustained for years. During the show Remini said if pediatricians don't tell her what she wants to hear, she just finds a new one. And apparently telling her that her daughter is being manipulative is not what she wants to hear.
"Manipulating me to what? To love her? To hang out? What is she manipulating me to do?" Remini said.
It's not unusual for first time parents to be lenient and overly accommodating, but refusing to accept that a four-year-old is playing you when you are fetching six or more bottles every night AND changing the resultant wet diapers is more of an issue with the adult than it is with the child. This is a job for the Super Nanny, not Rachel Ray!
