is Paul Elam a bad icon for MRAs?

I was pretty horrified when I read this article: http://www.buzzfeed.com/adamserwer/how-mens-rights-leader-paul-elam-turned-being-a-deadbeat-dad#.ho08eAYeO. The whole purpose of the MRA movement was to show that men have rights too and that feminism has often created an ideology for women with BPD and HPD to cloak their disorders in. But that doesn't mean that MRAs should stoop to this same level of abuse, which by all accounts, he has done himself.
