I was 16. People come from different lifestyles.
And unfortunately, you can come from a lifestyle where, you know, you're around this big person and, oh. wow, you know what I mean? What can I do to make sure that I stay at that level? You know, and those type of things.
And I mean, like, we probably grew up different. I probably grew up different from how you were raised with your parents. You probably had a bigger house and so forth on.
And we come out of a neighborhood where, oh, my God, you made the band. You understand what I'm saying? It's totally different. So we come from different lifestyles, you know, so.
And I can tell you that I am a protector. I have three children and I love my kids. And I'm still hurt to this day from a lot of things. Still trying to understand because you know your kids. That's a common thread. And I know whatever happened to my son, it happened during the years of him making that band. And that's where it all started.
And if I could give that all back for my son just to be in college, I would. No parent... No parent should have to see their child go through anything such as what I've seen, whether if it's Cassie or anybody else. But I also know that they have choices and I'm not making excuses for my son at his age because he was taught right and wrong.
He knows that if I'm not going to do this, my mom said this is not right. He had a choice. But when you love someone so hard and you put all your trust in them and you think, OK, I love this person so much that they're not going to hurt me and they turn around and they do that. It's not right. It's not right.
TJ, you're crying. When Making the Band was on, they ate me alive on the Internet. But what I'm saying... When I say they ate me alive, meaning... I actually quit my job when Q made the band because he asked his family to move to Virginia because that's what his manager, Screwface, wanted us to do. Oh, we got a house down here. You can set up your job down here.
I just wanted to be next to my son to make sure that he was, because he was so young, I wanted to make sure that he was guided right. And so I did all those things to move. And while they were on the show, we get pack up this truck or whatever. We're on the road. And we get a call from Screwface. Oh, the house fell through. We couldn't move in. And so Q at the time was taping.
And so he gets on there. He's like, I'm just worried about my family, my family, my family. And people kept they chewed me alive. Why would she quit her job for someone that just made the band at age 18? And do you know how bad I wanted to go on there and say, you don't know what the hell you're talking about. And you don't either. Q says, Mama, you can't do that. You see Beyonce's mom do that?
You know how much she's probably felt that, though? And I don't like it. So that's why you hardly ever hear of Q's mom ever saying anything online when all these things, you know, just him being on, you know, different podcasts and stuff like that. Today was the day that I felt that somebody needed to hear my voice on how I feel about everything. I can't blame Diddy, but I know he's not innocent.
I can only blame the people that were around me and my child because my son put so much into who he loved that I can only blame her because she was what, eight years older than Q? She had a lot of influence on him. And all he knew was that that was my girl. Mom, you can't tell me nothing about her.
All along, I kept telling him, Q, this don't sound right. I don't know. I don't trust her. Then this. It's just. It's the mom's worst nightmare. If I could give it all back, I would. I wouldn't just want my son to stay in college and just do the right thing. And I keep saying that days and nights.
I look at all his accomplishments when my son would walk down the street and I would just go on Facebook or anything like that. And people say, did you see that boy Q from day 26 looking crazy?
When I literally tell you... The trauma is severe. When I literally tell you we didn't understand anything and I was embarrassed. Then I had to think about it and said, this is my son. People will call me, did you see Q walking up the street? Or he's at the park sitting in a tree or something just out of his mind or... You guys can't even imagine what I went through as a mom.
And all I used to do was get on my knees and pray. I would look at all his accomplishments, accomplishments, BET awards, all those plaques and key to the city. And I said, Lord, what has happened to my child? What is going on? I didn't have any answers. I didn't have anybody to turn to because we weren't really getting exact answers from Q.
