NBA Star Dwight Howard Accused of Beating 6-Year-Old Son with Belt Buckle

Royce_DwightFormer reality TV star Royce Reed (pictured right), is accusing her baby daddy, NBA player Dwight Howard of beating their 6-year old son, Braylon with a belt buckle. The Cobb County Police Department (where Howard resides off-season), is investigating the accusations.

According to TMZ, the Dept. of Children and Family Services in Florida (DFS) determined there wasn’t enough evidence of child abuse to go forward, but it turns out the incident occurred in Georgia. Howard admits he hit his kid with a belt, but says he didn’t know it was wrong because he was hit as a kid.

Howard’s baby mama Royce Reed is “shopping her baseless allegations” to Georgia authorities although Florida’s Dept. of Children and Family Services found her claims had “no merit.” For the record, DFS found the allegations credible, but concluded they did not meet the standard of proof required for formal action. However, Royce is adamantly pushing the issue.

Dwight in turn, has filed for full parental custody, siting that Royce uses medicinal child care for their son in order to control him, keep him calm and to take naps.  

In the meantime, a petition started circulating by concerned citizens urging the Rockets to suspend Howard from the team.

Her ceremony was on her terms and in her own way.

Solange Knowles married her fiancé video choreographer Alan Ferguson, 51 in New Orleans on Sunday in a southern style eclectic wedding that was out of the norm. The couple arrived for the ceremony on vintage white bicycles, the brides adorned with white roses.

The guest all wore white and a lot of care and precision went into Solange’s big day as her wedding photos will be featured in a layout of Vogue magazine.

Standing to attention: Judging by these official wedding photos, a lot of care and precision went into organizing Solange's big day

Noticeably missing from the wedding festivities was Solange and Beyoncé’s father, Matthew Knowles who’s apparently estranged from his daughter’s due to his highly publicized extra marital indiscretions. Therefore, instead of the shining moment of a father/daughter dance; Solange had a mother/son dance with her ten (10) year old son, Daniel Julez, from her previous marriage. The video is too cute check it out!

Children know Nothing about being Gay…Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

What do children know about being gay? Yet it seems to be behavior that their exposed to in the home and in the lifestyles of their parents (s) and/or family members. But this is not a choice that children are aware of choosing.

However gender identity appears to be established and influenced by psychosocial factors during the first few years of a child’s life. Theories and psychologist outlined that for some adults who have gender identity disorder which leads to a homosexual or lesbian lifestyle, usually apply this behavior to their children.

It seems as though children are being recruited into a homosexual lifestyle, because a homosexual lifestyle is not genetic but inherited. Parents are easily the most important external force in the life of any child and, as would be suspected, contribute largely to the homosexual or heterosexual predisposition of their children.

As important as the father is in the life of a child, even he must take second place to mother during the first three years of life. The mother feeds the baby at her breast and spends far more time with him in infancy than does his dad. Consequently, mothers actually have more to do with producing a predisposition toward homosexuality than fathers.

Join me tonight on at 6:30 PM on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via “Blog Talk Radio” as I discuss, homosexual influences in a child’s development.

Lord have mercy!

Ashley Jackson, 15 (pictured here), with her famous civil rights activist father, reverend, preacher Jesse Jackson, was born out of an affair her mother had with Jackson when she worked for him at Operation PUSH in Washington, DC.

Dr. Karin Stanford (pictured inset with Ashley), conceived her daughter during a secret four-year affair she had with the married Baptist minister and father-of-five, despite the fact she was 20 years his junior.

When Ashley was just 20 months old, news of Jackson’s extra-marital affair went public – causing a national scandal. Jackson, who had just counseled then-president Bill Clinton through his own affair scandal with Monica Lewinsky, was forced to admit to the affair in 2001 and publicly apologized to his wife and other children in an emotional statement.

Fast forward and fourteen plus years later and Karin says “She and the Rev are on good terms and focused on supporting their daughter“.

Ashley is very aware of her parents back story and scandal but is keen to focus on her career.

‘I know about all their issues but I just consider them my parents’ issues not mine,’ Ashley revealed.

The multi-talented teen, who sings, raps, dances and acts, said she is keen to incorporate her father’s legacy in her music and use her creative talents to help people. She hopes her latest single “Just Do Me” will encourage people to be themselves.

Of course Rev Jackson had envisioned his 15-year-old Ashley to maybe follow him or her incarcerated half brother Jesse Jr., into politics or perhaps become an academic scholar like her mother but it looks like the youngster has her heart focused and set on fame.

And although Ashley writes her own music as well as being a gifted artist, she’s adamant she won’t let her pop dreams stop her from finishing her education and going to college although she makes no mentions of her academic status or GPA via the exclusive interview she gave to mailonline.com.

Ashley is currently looking for a record deal and says her dream is to one day be as successful as megastar Beyonce and collaborate with rapper Nicki Minaj.

Internationally known motivational speaker Myles Munroe and his family are feared dead, as it is being reported that his private plane crashed trying to land at the Grand Bahamas International airport Sunday night in the Bahamas.
