Dennis Rodman may have been one of the greatest defenders to have ever played in the NBA, but his life itself was the most legendary any basketball fan could ever know. From marrying himself, to appearing in WWE, to being married for only 9 days, to dating the most iconic Hollywood music sensation, Rodman has done it all. And that – with grace and style.
However, one thing Rodman overlooked during his open and fast life was the time he could spend with his family and children. When your dad is as busy as Dennis Rodman, kids will definitely be reluctant to open up to their dad. On the same note, she got emotional after pulling herself out of strained parenting when, in an interview, the host asked about Dennis Rodman’s relationship with his children.

What did Dennis Rodman reveal?
For those who don’t know, Rodman’s father abandoned him and his two sisters when he was just three years old. Also, her mother wasn’t really a constant presence in her life. He had to work a few odd jobs for pocket money. He once got a job as a janitor at Dallas Airport, so he even got into trouble. But these are just a few of his early challenges.
Thinking the same thing, Rodman quoted the same interview“I lie a lot about myself… I’m a great dad, I love my kids, and then I have to go home and sit there and beat myself up because I’m telling myself all these lies.”
“I don’t need anything, it’s about our kids, they don’t need anything, they want you in their life” said Rodman, remembering the conversation he had with his ex-wife. He also said: “I said it when I was 18-19, they never told me that.”
It continues to showcase the sad truth that Dennis Rodman has experienced in his life. On the one hand, where fans can only see him partying and having fun. Perhaps pleasure and spontaneity drove Rodman’s family away from him.
