- Are you having second thoughts now about bringing
Monster to Huntsville?
Absolutely.
Hm.
I'm not saying he doesn't need his dad.
Of course he needs his dad.
But his dad is there.
His dad is present.
He's there.
I mean, he's not in the home.
But he's there every opportunity that he can, he's there.
So I've never tried to take that away from him.
However, I didn't feel that he should take
that away from me, as well.
OK.
Maurice, how do you feel about her
having second thoughts about moving Monster to Huntsville?
I don't think that that's fair considering the father
that I am.
Tell her.
I don't think it's fair.
Right.
But you're looking at it from your standpoint.
I-- I-- that's--
You're not looking at it as if [INAUDIBLE] were to sit here
and say the stuff that she said on TV,
that he didn't want to be a parent,
or he said he didn't-- he didn't feel like he
wanted to raise another child. - Alone.
- Or if-- - I've never said that.
- Alone. - I've never said that.
- The key word is alone. - OK.
Alone. Whatever.
So-- or if he said that if he had a major issue with you--
You act like you haven't given me a reason to have an issue.
You keep acting like I came up with this by myself.
What have I done to you?
- All of this stuff! - What?
Are you kidding me? - What have I done to you?
Why do you keep that?
What have I done to you?
You're taking about--
Kiowa, you have been ill towards me from day one.
You've never had a nice thing to say to anybody.
Maybe there's people you don't think are going to tell me what
you say, and then when Maurice even addresses it,
you say, well, I said that in private.
No, no.
Just because you say it behind my back
doesn't mean that you don't say it.
First of all, why-- why wouldn't I think that?
You think I'm going to trust them?
- I'm saying-- - That's your people.
Why would I--
How are you going to sit here and acting
like you didn't say nothing. - Whatever.
- But I don't-- - The reason we're here--
Saying something? That's what the problem is?
The reason we're here--
Because of something I've said?
That's the problem?
You've-- yes. You constantly disrespect me.
All right. OK.
All right. - You constantly disrespect me.
I haven't disrespected you. I haven't disrespected you.
And for years he's let you--
I've-- I've not--
--because of this-- because of this moment,
when you say, I'm thinking I might change my mind.
That's why he's let you disrespect me this long.
Mm.
OK.
This is the problem.
Before television, and on television,
Kimmy's never said anything negative
about Kiowa, except for I'm not going
to keep getting disrespected.
That's it and she said, I've gotten--
[APPLAUSE]
I've got taken to task for years about this.
And it's an uncomfortable situation to be
in, just to try to parent.
And I'm saying that, right now, this
is a responsibility that God gave me and I cherish it.
Like, when I wake up in the morning,
and I see my son every day?
Do you understand how that makes me feel?
[SNIFFS]
Mhm.
I'm happy every single day I see him, man.
I sure do.
For real.
Because I--
I do the same thing.
[APPLAUSE]
Well, wait a minute.
Well, Kimmy made it very clear when
she was speaking with you that she wanted for her
to be able to move forward.
She wanted an apology from Kiowa.
And you said, I'm not sure you're going to get what
it is that you're looking for. - I don't--
What-- what is it you want Kiowa
to apologize for specifically?
I am a person of ownership, period.
And when you own it, you say, damn, I'm sorry.
I've been in her place.
I know everything.
I'm a single parent.
I don't have to keep proving to her that I get it.
I don't have anything against her.
I love her kid.
And I don't have one single thing against her.
We fight because I try to help him understand
the position as a mother.
They haven't even been to court.
I had a police officer knock on my door
and give me papers to go to be full custody with his dad.
He's trying not to do that with her.
He's doing the best he can not to go to court.
And I'm in her corner.
And she just can't [BLEEP] see it.
And I don't get that.
[APPLAUSE]
Kiowa.
Yeah.
Come on.
They're trying.
He's stepping up to do what a lot of men
don't do when they move on with their lives.
And then she's a willing participant.
She loves your son.
And it feels like, from the outside looking
in, that you're resisting.
And-- and I think it's time for you to let it go.
Just let it go.
Do you think you can apologize to Kimmy--
Yeah, if she can tell me what I--
--for what has been said so far so that
you guys can move forward?
What have I said?
You got to own it.
Mhm.
I will.
Whatever I said.
- Kimmy? - I'm good.
Kimmy.
No, no.
I'm good.
Kimmy, what about--
I'm good and that's the truth.
That's the truth.
