Season 3 Episode 310
Aired on 10/04/2014 | CC

On the heels of her controversial multipart mega-fix, Iyanla sits down with Jay, who has fathered 34 children with 17 different women, in studio for a no-holds-barred discussion. Iyanla has also invited onto the show five other men who are in similar situations. "No heat, no judgment," Iyanla says.

After introducing each father and explaining why this situation affects more than just the men onstage, Iyanla shares shocking statistics about children raised in fatherless homes. "Children from fatherless homes [are] five times more likely to commit suicide than children who have a father in the home," she says. "[They are] 20 times more likely to have a behavioral disorder, 14 times more likely to become sexually aggressive or commit rape and 10 times more likely to engage in drug abuse."

Then, Jay opens up about Ayanna's bombshell admission that he may not be the father of her son. Plus, find out if Jay is ready to be a grandfather...again.
