Cannon opened up to E! News about the struggles of parenthood, saying he wants to be more intentional with his children and the guilt he feels with not always being able to be around all of them.

“I know longer want to be careless. I want to be a lot more intentional with life. Especially when dealing with creating life. Because I love all my children, but I probably wasn’t intentional. For now, I have 12. No matter how much money you make, you can’t buy time.”

"I struggle with the idea of attempting to be everywhere at once," he continued. "One, we know that’s impossible. But I still try to do it. There’s that guilt, like, man, I wish I could be there more. But it’s not from the negligence of not making time or being selfish and only focusing on me. Every ounce of my free time is dedicated to my children."
