Dwight Howard Talks Fatherhood And Royce Reed
 Orlando Magic player Dwight Howard opened up to Esquire magazine about fatherhood and the repairing the damaged relationship with the mother of his son Royce Reed
I know it’s a subject you haven’t wanted to talk about publicly, but is fatherhood a part of your life?
It’s very important. Hopefully me and my son’s mom will come to a better agreement for my son. When I do see him, we have the best time in the world. He acts just like me. He tries to run like me. He looks back and smiles like me. Fatherhood is great and it will get better. He’s young. He’s gonna need his father in his life. People say you don’t need a father to be successful. I take offense to that. I had an argument with my mom about Father’s Day and why it’s not celebrated like Mother’s Day.
I’ve been around the NBA enough as a writer to see the women who would give anything just to get impregnated. And I’ve seen the men who didn’t care how many kids they had in how many different places, just as long as they had someone to f**k on the road. Pardon my French.
I understand. With some of my teammates, they try so hard to be around their kid, and then the mother of their child makes it so hard. A lot of guys just say, “I’m not gonna deal with it.”
It’s always the kids who pay the price.
I would never, ever desert my child. A lot of my friends didn’t have fathers growing up, and they were very upset that their fathers weren’t around. I was lucky to have mine around.
Not sure what's happening behind closed doors but hopefully Dwight Howard never gives up the fight to be a part of his son's life..

So what? Who cares about this fool, as always blaming the mother when in fact she is not the only one in the damn relationship, but as always the stupid men don't want to admit to any wrong doing but will open their big smelly mouth to others about Royce, to me it shows that he is nothing but a "worthless piece of @#$%! who is nothing but selfish", that is all I see I don't see a real man I see an idiot that can't do @#$%! right, all he knows how to do like all the other stupid little boys who think they're men, be a baby with a tantrum, please he's nothing he's a loss cause Who is he anyway?
