Question: Guys, suppose

[Ashley Banks]

honestly, i'd cause doubt and confusion. tell him i've been trying to be in his life since birth but his mother wouldn't allow it. then i'd lay on some thick shyt about wanting to be there to teach him all the things a father should teach his son.

Disgusting.

Reconnect

[Sierra Mist]

fukk I thought she was back.

 

[Metta World Movement]

fukk I thought she was back.

LOL......me too

Too bad she got ran off.....she seems like the type to make good threads

Anyway, back to the topic: If I was ever horrible enough to deny my kid and he/she grew up to be a rich celeb, I'd take the L and kick myself to the grave

A part of me would even hope they never tried to contact me....I'd feel lower than dirt, meeting a successful child of mine who I didn't acknowledge at first. I'd feel even worse if they forgave me and still tried to connect with me .....the whole scenario would probably end up looking like that Leif Garrett 'Behind The Music' moment when he met the dude in the wheelchair

You had a one night stand, the girl ended up pregnant and you don't acknowledge the child as yours.

The kid grows up a celebrity, making millions.

What would you do? Reconnect with the child, take the L and keep it moving or...?

*Frank Ocean's dad kinda inspired this thread.*

Is the child actually mine biologically ?

If you are dismissed, you are dead to me. No L's here.


You lost when the motivation to reconnect was financial.

What kind of celebrity? Are we talking reality show celebrity or A-List movie star celebrity?

 

[Mr. Negative]

Know that

1. I aint shyt for not being there

2. I aint shyt for even thinking about leeching off my kid after he made it and I was never around

3. Know that since I aint shyt, he prolly wouldnt have grown to be what he is if I would have been around, so he's better off without having known me.
