Tiffany Haddish is taking parenting classes in anticipation of adopting her first child. The comedian made the announcement while on E!’s “Daily Pop” and said she wanted to “put in the work” and wanted her future children to know she “wanted them.”

“I’m looking at five and up, really like seven. I want them to be able to know how to use the restroom on their own and talk,” Tiffany explained.

The main reason why Tiffany wants to adopt is that she herself was a product of foster care which she was in from the age of 13-18.

Haddish doesn’t want to have kids of her own out of fear of racism, she says she did give up tons of eggs at the age of 21 due to needing money, “I might got [sic] some kids out in these streets. I doubt it though because I never got the bonus,” Tiffany told E! News.
