He said that basically yes it's ratchet on the face of it but he is really helping a lot of families through the dna tests that are done and that's what helps him sleep at night. You can go to family court and get a paternity test for thirty bucks though lol

Not everywhere you can't. And they are so backlogged it may take forever. Plus if you have a few different possible candidates that's an issue as well.

Plus when you go on Maury you get to go to nyc, you get a per diem, and you get to floss on national television. I'd do it, especially if I was a poor single mother who isn't likely to get a free vacation anytime soon.

You know people can convince themselves of pretty much anything...especially white people who want to feel good by helping the coloreds.

But the same reason he isn't going to do anything responsible is the same reason bet is gonna stay ratchet...ppl don't want to watch it.

I'm guessing that ones that go don't know any better

it's like a free trip, just like maysay said
