Neymar did not write those words. But when he read them, he did not hesitate to endorse them.
It all started with a phrase that went viral on social media, attributed to the Brazilian footballer: that if you end your relationship with the mother of your children, you should never stop paying child support. That “being a father is not a decision you make and abandon, but a commitment that lasts forever.” Thousands of people shared the message, thinking it came directly from him.
Neymar decided to respond honestly: “I never said that, but I agree with what they said”, he wrote when commenting on the post. He did not need to claim authorship to make his position clear. At a time when so many fathers disappear after a separation, his public support for that idea carries more weight than any made-up quote. 👶💛
