Regina received a bit of backlash for her comments. However, legendary NFL QB Can Newton came to her defense and said that she's doing what a good parent should do.

"She's not doing anything different than any other parent would do for their child. And you have to set perimeters. And say, 'We're not doing that.' You would hope that child, that son, has resources in their life that can protect them. Instead of tipping our hat and appreciate a parent, we're looking at them, like, 'Oh, man, he's doing too much.'"

He added:

"And I just hate that for the black community. They do have good parents. It's better to protect than to have a situation that you could've prevented. And that goes back to parenting."
