    Or, at the very least, a big portion of the funds put into a trust for the child, with an assigned trustee. That way, baba mamma DOES need to justify the money she takes out and the kids might actually get some benefit from it, besides the already mentioned diamonds as cereal.

    What this is is alimony disguised as child support.

    Actually, her living doesn't even come into the equation. All it might do is make the other party also entitled to have of their stuff.

    the question, in this example, is what did Blake's wife actually do to help him make all that money? and the answer is...nothing at all, really.

    I was a fan of the diamond breakfast cereal suggestion. But I suppose a personally chartered bus to school with a full wait staff and fully stocked buffet wouldn't be out of the question. Possibly a flying bus.

    Then, there's also the need for kids to have their own theater room in the house, house pets from each endangered species, and a different pair of NBA signature shoes for each day of the year.

    It's cheaper than a divorce. If he married her and divorced her she'd get like fifty million off top plus child support, with this arrangement she ends up with about 45 mil over 16 years. That's some expensive p***y

    It's like Don Lemon said, 75% of African American children are born out of wedlock, and 70% are raised in single parent homes. Those are startling statistics and the white man isnt the root cause of this. If there is something to come out of this ruling , it is the common knowledge that having as many kids as possible with whomever is not a right. Children are a privilege you earn through displaying responsibility. I am very happy for the kids, the mom and society as a whole.

    Well, think about it this way. What is more hard work? Raising a kid or playing basketball? ;)

    Yes but birth status has nothing to do with actual parenting. An issue that I've noticed is misclassified single parents. If the non custodial parent is active in the life of the child/children or pays child support the custodial parent is not a single parent, that's co-parenting. And I would approximate about 50% of the 70% born out of wedlock are raised in co-parenting rearing models. Leaving about 20% of deadbeat parents, both male and female of many races

    Griffin would have been better off with a $2.75 bottle of lotion and pornhub.

    How in the f**k did this rather average looking girl manage to get herself knocked up by Matt Leinart (when every girl in California wanted him) and Blake Griffin? Girl must have some remarkable talent.

    The child support number is obviously ridiculous, but I never feel bad for dumb athletes who fall into the trap everybody warns them about.

    Personality? Some girls look a certain way but the way they act and behave makes them much more attractive and desirable.

    You seem very knowledgeable in this subject!!! Lol.

    I think of note, since it seems to note be clear here, they were not married. So this should just be pure child support, right? Also of note, they were going to go to trial, but this agreement was worked out, so Blake obviously had to agree to it.... perhaps there are details that indeed direct uses of cash like to trusts, etc.

    You don't have to make up numbers to justify irresponsible behavior from an adult.

    https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-...on-lemon-says-more-72-percent-african-americ/

    It is very skewed towards one race. That's another reason judges max out these penalties, he can obviously afford it, but it also sends a message to people that idolize a lifestyle that hurts society, hurts children and has guys thinking it's their prerogative to have as many babies as possible with no support system.
