Nick Cannon Admits He Doesn’t Want All of His Kids Under Same Roof: “Individuality Matters”
- Nick Cannon had always known that he wanted to be a father and always dreamt of having a big family
- The father of 12 and counting says he loves all his kids, but having a large brood comes with its challenges
- One of those challenges is trying to spend time with all of his kids while also maintaining separate relationships with each of their mothers

It is a delicate balancing act, but Cannon is determined to make it work for his children.

Speaking to People, he said:
“I feel like qualitative experiences are when I can give everyone their individual experience. I love stepping into their world. Going to their sports games or giving them their personal time for the holidays. So I have no problem with bouncing around.”
It works better for me
Cannon said he wants to build individual relationships with his kids and their mothers; however, the dynamics will change as they grow older.
Speaking to Hiphop Dx he added:
“I think it works a lot better [right now]. Because everyone’s busy, not just me, it works better for me to be able to take the time to go to them and show the value of being with them and not forcing anyone to come to me.”
Cannon's life might be a whirlwind of diapers, bottles, and baby formula. But he wouldn't have it any other way.
He said he cherishes every moment with his kids and is determined to be the best father.
Cannon forgets baby's name.
Nick Cannon, who has fathered 12 children with six different women, during a recent interview, failed to list all the names of his 12 children.
The actor named all his kids except seven-month-old daughter Onyx, and netizens called him out for it.
The online community shared hilarious comments, and Onyx's mum, LaNisha Cole, also shared a cryptic message in response.
