“I’m involved that our little one is being commercialized at a younger age and in addition of the uncontrollable penalties of media publicity i.e. cyberbullying, statements and/or photos taken out of context of our little one, and the undesirable highlight centered on our little one.”
Now, within the mild of all these accusations, Dwyane has one thing to say.
The Miami Warmth alum took to Instagram early Thursday morning to deal with the scenario, which appears to have taken him off guard. He started by shading the general public and on-line nature of Siohvaughn’s petition, writing:

We reported yesterday that the 41-year-old mom’s use of Zaya’s useless identify within the authorized filings, with out a lot as a point out of the kid’s chosen identify, could have been a clue that she doesn’t acknowledge the transition, and Dwyane appears to have echoed that:
“Whereas none of us are stunned by Siohvaughn’s try to battle Zaya’s id and her unwavering try to tug my identify by the mud, I’m very upset that she constantly finds methods of centering herself and HER wants, with out regard to her youngsters. This report got here out whereas Zaya was in school. This can be a child who has maintained a 4.0 GPA in honors lessons whereas navigating all this unsolicited and dangerous consideration and debates about her gender and sexuality from those that are dedicated to not listening to her, a lot much less even understanding her!”
The protecting poppa bear then made a surprising declare, revealing:
“Siohvaughn tried the same try over a decade in the past (with equally damaging lies and inflicting irreparable hurt to her youngsters) and 13 legal professionals later, I used to be awarded sole custody of our two youngsters as an energetic NBA participant!”
He continued:
“‘I’ve given her the chance to achieve out to Zaya’s academics, medical doctors, and therapist through the years and even meet her mates, so she might get her personal understanding of our little one’s want for her LIFE! She gained’t do it!”
He then added:
“Zaya will not be that very same 3-year little one anymore and he or she’s screaming that to the world however most significantly to her Mom! Nobody in our home would ever power Zaya or any of our youngsters to do something towards their will, a lot much less power an id on them. This isn’t a recreation for my household and positively not for Zaya. That is her life!”
Rattling! See his full publish (beneath):
We really feel so unhealthy that Zaya must be on the middle of all this, and whereas the studies are positively troubling to say the least, we hope each mother and father actually just do need what’s greatest for his or her little one. Like we mentioned, Dwyane has been supportive from the very starting, so we’re so glad Zaya has somebody in her nook. However what are your ideas, Perezcious readers? Tell us within the feedback down (beneath)!
