Throughout the his divorce, Dwyane Wade remained a stand-up guy, even when his wife, Siohvaughn, claimed that the NBA superstar gave her herpes, abandoned his children and went on E! airing out their dirty laundry. He has been quiet – until now. Wade asked a court to give him full custody of his two sons and asked that his wife be forced to undergo a psychological examination.
"For more than two years, I have tried to make peace with Siohvaughn, concerning our divorce and custody of our kids," Wade said in a statement released to the Associated Press. "I no longer believe that's possible. Siohvaughn has consistently attempted to interrupt or prevent me from having visitation time with our boys. I'm sorry to say that many of the things she has done during our marriage and throughout this divorce have convinced me that it is not in our children's best interest that she have custody. As a result, I have decided to fight for custody of our children. I feel our children's health and safety are at stake. Our two children are my top priority."
In the petition to the court, Wade said that his ex "has made it evident that she is unstable, dishonest, unbalanced, unwilling to accept responsibility for her actions, not of good character, and therefore, unfit to be a custodial parent."
Whose side are you on?
From the outset of the divorce proceedings, Wade has been the bigger person. He didn't disrespect his ex-wife in the media, he hardly ever talks about the divorce, and maintains that his children are what is most important to him at the moment. He also has a good chance of gaining full custody: According to eHow.com, "The number of fathers who have sole custody has increased 15 percent during the past two decades."
And Siohvaughn? She's taking on the role of the "crazy baby momma," the type of ex that isn't really concerned about the well-being of her children but rather focused on tearing down her ex-husband. Hurt people try to hurt other people, and the children get caught in the crossfire. It appears this is what Wade is trying to prevent with his latest petition to the court.
And with the way Wade has handled the proceedings thus far, being reserved in his comments on the case, I have no reason not to believe his latest claims. According to the E! report that ran back in February, Dwyane's two sons, Zaire, 8, and Zion, 2, desperately want to see their father. If it's true that Siohvaughn is purposely preventing them from seeing him, I am riding with Daddy 100 percent. There's nothing young boys need more than a stable, hardworking father to look up to and be with.
Besides, who would you rather be with: a crazy baby momma who is hung up on what her ex is doing or an NBA superstar daddy who is ready and willing to take care of you?

I HAVE READ ALL THE COMMENTS ON HERE AND I TELL YOU SOME OF YOU PEOPLE ARE SICK. SO OFTEN TIMES WHEN COUPLES ARE GETTING A DIVORCE, THE CHILDREN DO SUFFER. SHE IS KEEPING HIM FROM SEEING THESE BOYS AT A TIME WHEN THEY NEED HIM IN THERE LIFE. (FYI) SHE DID CHARACTER ASSASSINATE HIM SOMETHING FEIRCE AND FOR ANYONE TO SAY SHE KEPT IT CLASSY IS JUST AS DILLUTED AS SHE. SAD TO SAY THAT HE MAY NOT GET CUSTODY BECAUSE #1 COURTS ALWAYS FAVOR THE WOMEN IN THESE ISSUES, HELL A WOMEN CAN GO TO COURT AND FILE FOR CHILD SUPPORT ON A MAN AND DON'T HAVE TO PROVE HE'S THE FATHER. I WISH D-WADE ALL THE BEST AND HOPE HE DOES GET CUSTODY.

I can recall my ex calling me crazy and playing this game like Dwayne Wade.I believe its a DNA in some Black men that know how to present an innocent profile in public but a lunatic,cold calculated devil in the home.His family/friends kept saying what did you do and I just kept praying and taking care of my business with my child.When it came to the child support hearing,he lost his cool and the second phase the girlfriend was told she could not attend and it was a reality on all party sides and guess who was really crazy?The Husband.I believe SVaughn does not have a support system to stand strong with a big NBA superstar and her tactics is all she has for a defense.I pray that a descent attorney or other ball players will hookup and give you some support.

Why a bench warrant for Wades's wife and where is her attorney?She doesn't need to showup but its D Wade hometown and he probaly has placed money in the city,so he is favored over her.Wade ,you are wrong and you have a problem after seeing you with Star Jones I kneww you had some mom issues.The TNT even made fun of you seeing a picture of the two of you at an event and you said you were taking her to the Kentucky Derby.A judge need to give both of you a mental checkup and T-mobile to cancel your contract.

Do making alot of money make you crazy? Or being with someone that makes alot of money and take care of you and all your needs? What happen to the love for the children and sticking together and work it out? Who wins in this deal? I know the boys won't! I hope it all works out in the end. Blessings to them both and the boys too!
