Teddy Riley has released a statement regarding the physical attack he allegedly placed upon his two daughters, Deja and Taja. Teddy blames himself for spoiling his girls rotten and giving them everything they've ever asked for. He said he feels as if he's been taken advantage of and that he will not continue to let his own children disrespect him in his home. What I wanna know is where are these girl's mother?

Read the complete statement below.

Due to recent events, I am compelled to respond in detail to accusations made against me, by my daughters. I love my Daughters, but I will not allow my children to disrespect me in my home. Contrary to what I have been accused of, I would never beat my children. Perhaps, I should have been a stronger disciplinarian as they were growing up. I worked very hard so that my children would want for nothing. In hindsight, I see that it was a mistake to give them everything they wanted so that they could have the childhood I never had. Unfortunately, they have taken me, and the privileged life I have given them, completely for granted.

Instead of being appreciative and realizing how fortunate they are, my children have an inflated sense of entitlement and expectation without having to work or earn their way.

However, my 'children' are no longer children, they are adults and I am trying to instill in them values and a work ethic of their own. My mother always told me "too many grown people can't live in one house" so I encourage them to have their own homes if they cannot abide by the rules of mine. I am not an uptight Dad, I am as hip as they come but I will not tolerate being taken advantage of or disrespected, especially in my home. I've been working since the age of 14, I bought my first car by myself. Nobody gave me a car. My kids don't even remember their first car. I grew up with 6 of us in an apartment fighting over one bathroom. My kids have never had to share a bathroom, let alone a bedroom.

I'm asking everyone to let this one go... I'm only being a good parent. I'm a great father and everyone who knows me, knows this is true.

Thank you so much,

With all my love,
Teddy Riley

Oh, so Teddy Riley's putting the 2010 version of the 'new jack swing' on his own daughters over something that went down between them and his 21-year-old girlfriend? A girlfriend he's only had for about two months?! According to TMZ, last week, Mr. Riley went berserk on two of his daughters: 18-year-old Taja Riley and 19-year-old Deja Riley and attacked them with a guitar from the video game Rock Band. Taja filed and was granted a temporary restraining order against him after claiming in court papers that he abused her and her older sister by "stomping, punching and bashing them" in his L.A. home on December 23. She also said that at one point Teddy, "lifted a Rock Band guitar and threatened to kill person(s) w/ it." Taja suffered several injuries in the alleged altercation --including "bashes to temple, contusion on face" and "pain in knee."(see the photo above).

Dude....

Although TMZ never said what led to the altercation, word travels fast around the Internet especially since Twitter was created. Teddy, his girlfriend (who went by the screen name BitaBeauty), Taja and Deja all have Twitter accounts (Teddy and his girl deleted theirs once the story broke...no surprise there), but Deja has left the tweets she exchanged with Bita up on her Twitter page. As you can see from Deja's tweets to Bita below, Deja blamed the 'golddigger' (her words not mine) for what went down.
