According to Balotelli, goldiggers have brought families to disrepute by trying to use third parties to fend for themselves instead of finding jobs before trying to have kids.
“The law should prevent goldiggers from having children against the will of men only to obtain the advantage of money”, he said.
“It is diabolical, sad and immoral.
“Family comes with love and not out for convenience. If you are single, you are having fun and cannot provide for yourself, do not use third parties as if they were an ATM but just find a job before having kids.
“Even if the law at times isn’t fair God is and the punishment at the end will be eternal.”
