346. Correction on my previous entry. His taxes for one year would be approximately $950,000.00.

347. This is insane. no woman should get over $2,000 a month no mater how much a he earns. no child costs that much to raise. I say if you can't raise a child for $2000 a month or less then you don't know how to be a parent and your ability to raise the child should be terminated.

348. I dont agree with her asking for 30K....what could a 9-month old need that she needs 30K...I dont spend 30K on my child and he has everything his little heart desires...this broad just wants his $$$ and wants to have it easy because she has a baby with a Pro Football player...6K is more than enough for his child to live and have everything the child needs and wants...i hope they dont give her anymore...as a matter of fact i hope they cut it down!!!! Its females like her that give hard working mother a bad name....SHAME ON HER!!!!!

349. I usually don't post on these forums but I'm so sick of seeing this. First let me say I am a woman so no one thinks for a minute that this is a man making these comments. I totally believe that yes, he should pay to support his child. He helped make the baby so he definitely has a responsibility to HELP support it. HELP. He should not be the sole financial provider of the child. Granted, he makes $51million over 6 or so years, which is roughly $8.5 million a year and then take out some tax and he's still VERY well-off.

Here is where I see the problem. He and this girl were together for a few years before he was drafted. No pregnancies. Almost immediately after the draft, no, I think it was right before, amazingly she came up pregnant. Am I pointing fingers, no, but I do believe everyone should be aware of the cycle this is creating. This is not just a simple matter of pay this amount or that amount. Whatever amount he is ordered to pay will never put a serious dent in his pocket because there are laws that limit the amount of child support (so it's not like she'll ever get 60% or 70% of his pay or anything). But just the fact that she can have a baby and fight to get $30k a month, $360K per year, is disturbing.

This cycle has created what is now known as "PROFESSIONAL CHILD SUPPORT COLLECTORS." This is tragic. Women willing to have a baby with hopes of getting rich. As we are starting to see, it's not race or sport specific, it's happening to everyone and everywhere. Most of these women weren't even in relationships with these men when they got pregnant (Matt was already off and dating someone else when she actually got pregnant -- and no, sleeping together doesn't constitute a relationship). So rather than thinking of having a nuclear family for your child to grow up and prosper in, it's more of, I'll have this baby, so what if his father isn't here all the time, it's worth it for the money I'll get every month.

Do I have a solution, no. I would not want a child to suffer financially (with a father who obviously has so much) just to teach the mother a lesson; and I don't know what type of lesson would be good for the father that wouldn't reward the mother. In any event, I think it's a terrible terrible thing they're doing and no matter what amount of money is granted for child support, that money will never take the place of a Father in that child's life.

350. Also, in addition to my previous comment a lot of people are not privy to the "extras" that these fathers do for their children. Yes, he may pay only $6K for child support and just bought her one car, but generally in these cases (and no I'm not saying in ALL) the father also takes care of other expenses without being ordered to such as private school, clothes, vacations, general children wants/needs, etc. And all of this in addition to the $6K the mother is already getting. So what is her $6K being spent on?

352. Child support is tax free. If $72,000 per year tax free isn't enough for a single mother with one child, then she needs to have her child taken away because she's too stupid to raise a child.

Think about what she's asking for: $30,000 per month for 18 years. That's $6,480,000...tax free. If that's not gold digging, then I don't know what is.

Someone tell that chick to shut her mouth, cash her checks, get a job and keep her legs closed.

354. That's crazy she wants more AFTER he signed his mega-million dollar deal. It's not blackmail, but it may as well be "shamemail." What kid needs $30k a month? That's called momma money and the only way that kind of additional $ should be given is in a trust fund in their kid's name when he turns at least 25!!!!

355. I think before anyone calls Brynn at gold digger, they should read the article in the Ventura County Star. Brynn tells The Star that she has the baby 99.9% of the time. The article also states she is going to moving into an apartment close to USC. This is NOBODYS business and we should not be so quick to judge. I think TMZ did a poor job of showing both sides of the story, shame on you Harvey!

356. And your point is??? I went to SC. I lived near SC for 4 years of school and 2 years of work. If she can't find a place to live and take care of herself and their child for less than $6000 a month then she needs to be kicked out of school.

I will repeat what I said before. Child support is tax free. If $72,000 per year tax free isn't enough for a single mother with one child, then she needs to have her child taken away because she's too stupid to raise a child.

Think about what she's asking for: $30,000 per month for 18 years. That's $6,480,000...tax free. If that's not gold digging, then I don't know what is.

It's not called lifestyle support. It's child support.

357. I find it interesting that this young woman who made many conscious decisions; the first to engage in unprotected sex resulting in pregnancy; the second to remain pregnant, when clearly she had a choice; and upon making her second decision, she absolutely made her third decision to become a single parent, is now complaining about how the absent parent gets to fly in for a few days and is praised for his involvement, while she if left to do all the real work. Well, what did she think was going to happen? Did she think he would marry her because of a baby? Probably and now it's backfired, and she is left with a child she probably would not have contrived to conceive had the sperm donor been your average working young man.

Clearly, $6000.00 per month in child support can take care of all of the child’s needs which include shelter, food, diapers, utilities, etc. Most single working mom’s in America don’t get anywhere near $6000.00 per month and are able to take care of their children. Oh, don’t forget a mother has an obligation to contribute to the support of her child as well! The father I’m sure will provide healthcare, pay tuition, and any extraordinary expenses, nursery furniture, travel, etc. If the mother’s motives are truly altruistic, she should suggest that any additional monies she is seeking in child support be put into a trust account for the baby with a mutually agreed third party as trustee, and these monies should be doled out at milestone intervals when the child reaches his majority. It is a given the father will pay for the child’s primary, secondary and post secondary education and expenses. So these monies would in fact be a great start in life for the son they both love.

This young man has every right to have the baby visit him at his home, so that he can establish a regular home environment for him and his son, and since he has more discretionary dollars, he should pay for the airfare of the mother or a nanny to bring the baby to him for visits and either fly that person immediately back, or put that person in a hotel for the duration of that visit, especially if the mother is the person bringing the baby. They should arrange a transfer of the child into his custody at the airport or hotel and effect the same reversal of custody at the same airport or hotel. My stepson doesn’t have nearly the financial resources as this baby’s father, and he flies his son and his son’s mom in from Puerto Rico to the Virgin Islands on a Friday, and she immediately flies back to P.R., he keeps the baby for 14 days and he flies to P.R. with the baby Friday evening 2 weeks later to return him to his mother, and custodial transfer takes place at the airport. His son is in a regular daycare program when he is with him, he has a regular sitter for him, and he has friends over for play dates, etc. In Matt’s case I would hire a single nanny to work with both parents for the baby, which creates continuity between the households.

I have suggested to some young male professional athletes that to ensure they become parents by planned choice, make deposits into a sperm bank of their choice, and have a vasectomy, thereby eliminating the unwanted pregnancies, and turning the tables on those women out there who will retrieve the condom and try to impregnate themselves when you thought you were being responsible. And when they have found the woman they want to marry and mix their gene pool with, retrieve your sperm and have her impregnated, without a doubt it will be a planned pregnancy. Young men need to be sexually more responsible regarding birth control and conception. It saddens me to say there are women that will attempt to use pregnancy and children to improve their lifestyles.

358. A bunch of long-winded nonsense above. You people obviously do not understand California law and the reasoning behind it.

One more time: s l o w l y.

It is not about what she and the baby "need" as a minimum. It is about creating a comparable environment for the child whether he is with his athlete father, or his caregiving mother.

The mother and child will prevail, and all this publicity is a nasty attempt by Leinart's lawyer to intimidate Ms. Cameron. Hopefully, she has a good lawyer, too. And yes, shame on you, Harvey, for being such a tool for Wasser.

359. I think he should make a trust for the baby. Continue with the ungodly amount of $6,000.00 a month, what is she doing with it? Paying her parents mortgage and bills? What does it matter what he makes. He's over paid like all the rest of the pro athletes. It's ridiculous. No one is worth that much money, I don't care how well they play. Whinning about what he is fixito go through is his own fault, use birth control, you wouldn't be in this mess right now. That girl knew what she was doing, she did it on purpse. Who wouldn't? She knew she was going to be raking in the child support.

Regardless, set up a trust fund and when the kid turns 18 release some of it to him. and then do so every 5 years after that till he turns 30 and then give it to him. She doesn't deserve the money. The child will with the way the world is headed now, it will cost him a fortune if he decides to go to college.

360. I'm a single mother of 3...the state decides what is the child support based on the amount of income and the percentage each earns of that. I only get $790.00 per month for 2 teenagers. $6,000 is more than enough for daycare, clothes, insurance and a decent mortgage. She just wants more than her fair share. They are both supposed to be responsible adults. I'm sick of people wanting money for doing nothing.
