    Hopefully this is his last kid. He can barely take care of the ones he has now.

    Babydoll, before you speak, you should do some research and at least know what you are talking about. You say the only reason a person would want a child with Bobby Brown is for child support. Do you not know that he has been to jail so many times for NON-PAYMENT of child support. So a woman would have to be a complete idiot to have a baby with him merely on the fact that she wants money.

    Who would want him for child support???? He doesn't even pay his child support which is why he's always getting locked up!!!! Whitney used to pay it, not sure what he's going to do now...
