According to the NY Daily News, Donald Trumps three eldest children held a pre-election meeting with the outspoken businessman to request that he tone down his anti-Obama rhetoric lest he ruin the familys reputation.
A source told the New York paper that Eric, Donald Jr. and Ivanka Trump met with their father in mid-October to request that he calm down the presidential bashing.
The three of them met and went to see their dad in his Fifth Ave. office, the source said. They showed a lot of respect, but told him hes worked too long and too hard to build up the reputation he has. They understand completely hes always been outspoken and that he likes attention, but this is too much.
However, Trumps reps deny the existence of any such meeting, calling any rumors completely untrue and that his children love his exercise of free speech and would they would never try to rein in their father.

Sorry kids. Too late. Seems the Macy's boycott threat woke them up.
