Westbrook should have been there learning alongside him.
Is Future actually a neglectful father? I have seen multiple videos of Russ being a stepdad, but none of Future being an actual dad 😭
I bet Future could never!!
Future must be furious right now.
Future should take him to a strip club to learn how to attract women.
Imagine caring for a child and they still get nicknamed after their absent biological father. LOL.” pic.twitter.com/dy5Qple3iu
