“I Grew Up Thinking He Doesn’t Love Me” Brian McKnight’s Kids Say He’s Been A DEADBEAT For YEARS

“I can’t imagine abandoning my children man. Its hard not to imagine the psyche of a man who can truly just turn his back on his actual sons, on his actual blood,and creations. It’s mind boggling to me.

I don’t think there is any situation that merits the way my father has chosen to treat my brother, my sisters, and his grandchildren, one of which being his first born’s, first born son, who also bares our name. It’s insane to me.

To have absolutely no empathy for the type of life be introduced us to, only to become to resent us for that life catching up with us. It breaks my heart, but not for myself, specifically for my siblings, and my children. They don’t deserve this at all, not open bit. And I’m not letting shit slide, not for one second. I’ve tried my best to take the high road, and be the bigger man, and all that positive shit, but there is a much bigger issue here, when it comes to black fathers, especially in entertainment that needs to be addressed.

I believe there is a serious discussion that needs to be had, and A part of me truly feels like our story is the one to begin the conversation that will lead to healing a lot of young men, and woman with abandonment issues.

It’s time to tell our side of the story. #SONOFALEGEND”

BJ’s sister Bri McKnight said the label of “daddy’s little girl” never applied to her. For years, her brothers were the only fathers she knew, adding that Brian McKnight put other children who are not biologically his, before his own. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE
