Father Has 21 Kids, He’s 29 (PHOTOS, VIDEO)
Desmond Hatchett is 29 years old and lives in Knoxville, Tennessee. His claim to fame? He has fathered 21 children, who now range in age from newborn to 11 years of age. The brood of youngsters have eleven mothers – which would seem to indicate that this guy is popular with the ladies and has been very busy procreating.
Hatchett fathered four children in one year – twice. He isn’t able, on his minimum wage salary, to support them all – much to the displeasure of the state of Tennessee. They hauled him into court last Friday, where he appeared on the docket eleven times – representing 15 of his 21 children.
The state can only take 50% of Hackett’s month pay, and when divided twenty-one ways, it isn’t paying for much. He brought $400 to court with him. Court records indicate that he must pay the women a monthly sum ranging from $25 to $305. When his paycheck is garnished, these women are actually receiving an average of $1.98 per month.
Under the circumstances, it appears that the financial burden rests squarely on the shoulders of the good citizens of Tennessee….and their tax dollars.
Hatchett claims he wasn’t out to set a record. “I didn’t intend to have this many. It just happened.”

gotta low dat
Oh, I normally don’t comment but what a loser! I also normally don’t get so judgemental but I can’t help it with this one. People like him should be locked up. And what happened to these women? Don’t they know that there is something called birth control. I mean after 2 kids, he should know better to keep his pants on at least until he feels the woman is protected. Big Moron. I vented! Great post as usual by the way!

Well cut this guy off, I mean cut him off, fix him where he can’t have any more kids he is only 29 and says he don’t plan to have kids well make sure. And while you are at it sew up octa mom so she can’t have any more that those stupid doctors think they have the right to allow. If no one does anything then we will all pay for the stupidity of these CRAZY people.
First there was Octo-Mom…now Blackjack-Dad
Allah bless this man with a very good job and lots of dollars to support his wifes and kids, amen to that brother.
Nothing wrong with what this brother did, not when compared to homosexuals that couldnt procreate didley squat.
Amen bro
The guy has problems in all areas…we can all agree, but what about those women who kept opening their legs to him without knowing what was going on? To me, he isn’t the only ridiculous one in this mess. Those kids are going to suffer. This is so unfortunate.
hey mohammed, you dont justify bad behavior by pointing to other bad behavior. fact is, the taxpayers of tn. are going to get forced to pay for kids born out of wedlock because of this dumbass.2- aids is still around along w/ other stds. wear a rubber. 3- better yet abstaining works every time its tried 4- he works in a min. wage job. how much of a financial support will he give based on 7.00/ hour ? thx for reading
This brother really , really should not have any more kids. And the sisters really, really need to stop also. I mean what were they thinking!!!! Obviously they were thinking with other parts of their bodies and not using their brains. This really poses a totally negative image of young Black men and young Black women. I am totally disappointed and ashamed of these young people. Because of their need for sexual satisfaction the state of Tennessee and the government have to care for their children. The whole thing is shameful and digusting and the sad thing is , the innocent children will suffer.
Seriously… Bless this man? He isnt a man… A MAN takes care of his children… This is a boy who is 29 and has yet to grow up… So now tax payers foot the bill for his problem… What a joke.
this man needs a reality show.
trojans should be seeking him for a spokespeson.
Typical
He said that he didnt meant to have that many, Well did he use protection. I believe he was trying to make a record for himselfHow can “it just happen” to have “21″ kids. And who ever believes that is pretty darn stupid. Someone give the man the “CUT”
have you ever heard of CONDOMS? they’re called CONDOMS!
Another fine example of why the welfare state be done away with. If women can keep their legs closed until they get the guy to marry them then why should the state pay for them to have sex? They’re just welfare whores. Don’t pay them for having kids out of wedlock and you’d be surprised how often this would not happen.
They should cut his balls off just below his chin!!!
An Ubermensch does not spread his seed to become weeds in the gardens of the impoverished. He finds a fertile environment and cares for those he sows until they grow into viable, productive, (and hopefully) another Ubermensch.
The sub-mensch scatters his seeds to become weeds, as he was spread; without growth, nutrition, or hope. His seeds will are malnourished. $1.98 a month isn’t enough to feed a dog, much less a mensch. The shame is so obvious that it doesn’t recognize itself as shame. This is the lowest human; it is so low, it doesn’t know wrong from right.
Drek from drek.
And so it goes.
You think after the guy had 5 kids to different ladies no female would sleep with him. But if he was Mormon all this would be ok. Just hope some of his kids are good at sports. Hell he could have has own starting line up with all his kids. Who knows maybe TLC will come knocking on his door.
This guy may be a loser as some have commented, but he had to have willing partners! I think it says more about the state of much of our society. His partners knew that a check and housing will be provided each month thanks to the welfare system. The bigger expense will be when these children become teens, many will end up in the criminal system. These children will be poorly educated unprepared for the job market and be a continued burden on the rest of society. This cycle will continue over and over generation after generation….
Good thinking Joe. I’m with you, but I think we can make things even more efficient if we personally murder the children of people without enough money in their bank accounts, rather than simply removing all aid and letting the child starve.
I mean really, if you can’t personally watch the children die, where is the benefit?
All sarcasm aside, Joe, you should take some time to read a book I like to call ‘The Bible’. It’s old, I know, but a lot of issues in it are still relevant to today’s society. Given your obvious hatred for poor people I can tell you are not Christian,but there is still hope for you.
Please, do yourself a favor and read His teachings. This blind worship of money above all else is destroying the country. Starving children to death is not the solution.
Mohammed, a man takes care of his children.
This “man” has failed to protect and care for his children.
That’s a complete failure of a “man” in every culture in the world.
