Shaquille O’Neal is a proud father of six children. Although his parenting style may differ from many, it is known to get results. All of the big man’s children are self-made, with Myles O’Neal already a millionaire at 26. With Father’s Day coming up in a few weeks, Shaq’s latest social media dig at his children might just end any chances of a celebration.

Shaq has been a tough father figure to his children. For instance – cutting off his kids from the inheritance. A few months back, the former center revealed he doesn’t share his $600 million with his children, stating “I tell them [his children] all the time. We ain’t rich. I’m rich.”

For this Father’s Day, however, Shaq had to go in another direction with a hilarious endorsement of millionaire rapper Ice-T. The holiday is merely two weeks away, and the rapper took to his Instagram to share a post on his feed.

His post read, “Father’s Day coming up fellas Get Ready to get nothing.” He captioned the image, “Lol… Pretty much….” Ice-T is a father of three as well, though with three different women. Shaq shared the same post on one of his Instagram stories.

Shaq too is a father of six with two women. He has, however, been much more involved in his children’s lives despite being divorced. The big man makes sure he is there for his children. He was even spotted training with his son a couple of months ago in order to teach him some new tricks on the court.

Shaquille O’Neal has embraced the father role well in his late fifties. The seven-foot big man makes it a point to impart wisdom to his children every now and then. It is no secret that Shaq had a tough childhood growing up.

But all the beatings he received from his father for being a mischievous kid finally paid off in the long run. As a father himself, the Los Angeles Lakers legend would want all of his children to have a successful life, much like he did.
