(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Demi Moore's daughters have reportedly taken a "tough love approach" after witnessing their mother's self-destructive ways.

It has been claimed that Demi's three daughters - Rumer, Scout and Tallulah - are considering taking out a restraining order against her after a series of arguments has resulted in their relationship reaching "breaking point".

The bond between them is said to have turned sour following Demi's hospitalisation for exhaustion and reported substance abuse earlier this year. The troubled actress' struggles came after splitting from husband Ashton Kutcher amidst rumours he had cheated.

Demi's daughters are said to be fed up with their mom's increasingly self-destructive ways and want to shock her into getting help once and for all.

"Everyone had hoped Demi was getting back to normal after rehab, but Ashton being pictured with Mila [Kunis] has floored her and she's having mood swings and barely eating," a source told British magazine Closer.

"Her girls want to support her, but have made it clear they want her to start eating, get over Ashton, and start taking care of herself. They love her dearly, but have realised being supportive wasn't helping so have taken a 'tough love' approach."

Demi is also said to be finding it hard that her daughters are still in contact with Ashton.

"The girls have all stayed friends with Ashton, and that is infuriating Demi," an insider told Radar Online. "Ashton cheating on Demi humiliated her, and when she got out of the relationship she thought she was setting a good example for her daughters, so when they stayed close to Ashton it devastated her."
