No,Paul was definitely pissed at the lack of promotion and attention that the Family album received.It's all in the DMSR book lol

Much like the other band members,Paul was frustrated by the lack of promotion and support for the Family project."The single 'The Screams Of Passion' was out,and there was no promotion,nothing.We didn't have any idea what was going on",Peterson says."It was just so disorganized.I said, 'If you're gonna be in charge of this band,you can't do four million other things at the same time'.He said "Yes I can! I did it with The Time,didn't I? I did it with Sheila E.I did it with Vanity 6".

He angrily left the band after an argument with Prince (who was in France,filming UTCM).

Crazy, I'd totally forgotten about that eek

Even more crazy, Peterson never mentions that part of the story anymore eek
