His mom seems to have kept the same attitude even WITH his fame. She was a single parent who did what SHE knew to do to raise her son. She COULD HAVE been more tender with him, but by no means is she not worthy of being recognized as his mother.

So what was the true reason on why the white family accepting him in their home,just to show If one of them get mad and calls him the N word?

[@divadoll606]

His mother didn't abandon her children and worked 3 or more jobs to provide for them. Maybe that was her way of showing them love. The father copped out and she went about the business of taking care of her family. We have no idea what the perspective of his sisters are. None of his mother's children are failures, they did pretty good for themselves.

[@MrMuaythai84]

normal for black men to not be responsible. they just wanna breed and leave. now they breed with white women and leave. and these whitey think black men loves them when its just lust

[@jonathanikeda8727]

I think his mother failed to check up her former husband's character and personality before they have a serious relationship. I think she choose a wrong person as a lover and husband. I think she choose him because of unrequited love only but she failed to check up his sense of responsibility and virtues. Honestly, I am not surprised that I already know that Dennis Rodman can't be a faithful husband or lover due to his behavior and lack of consideration.

Holy God, so much to unpack here. All I'll leave here for now is this : His father, Philander Rodman (what a name) has a character arc that reminds me a lot of Emory Tate, I'm sure you know who that was. But the way he apparently leeched off his son's success the way he did after being absent his entire life.. is beyond disgusting. But I'll give him credit for perhaps being the unsung godfather of the ''Passport Bro's'' movement.

I saw him play with Southeastern Oklahoma University against Langston University in 1983/84? He was the only black on the all white team. He was also the best player on the court. The small gym was jam packed. Everyone was there to see the Worm. Their bus rolled in. They had a brief shooting practice (about 10 mins). They won handily because of the Worm. They left immediately. No talking or photographs with fans or players. Langston Uni is a HBCU and we have all heard about the Worm in newspapers. He never spoke a word to anyone as far as I recall.

[@beyondthepage9389]

Trinity Rodman is as good at football (soccer) as Dennise was at Basketball, and she wins titles, trophies, and accolades at a similar rate. At just 22, she is already recognised as one of the best female soccer players in the world and, as such, earns as much (maybe even more) money as a professional football player than Dennise did at the same age as a pro basketball player. In 2022 she became the the first player in the NWSL (National Women's Soccer League) to receive a professional contract above 1 million dollars.
