What happens when your bickering children annoy you and you are a partner at a White Shoe NYC firm?

By Kevin Maillard

From the NY Daily News:

A prominent Park Avenue lawyer was arrested after cops said she got so angry at her young daughters that she kicked them out of her car - and drove off.

Madlyn Primoff apparently couldn't bear any more squabbling between her 10- and 12-year-old daughters Sunday and booted them out of the car in White Plains, Westchester County, authorities said.

The fedup Scarsdale mom - a partner at white-shoe firm Kaye Scholer soon relented and let her 12-year-old daughter back in when she caught up with the family car.

The younger daughter wandered around the corner to Mamaroneck Ave., where a good Samaritan spotted her in tears about 7:30 p.m., bought her ice cream and then approached a cop in a patrol car.
