NFL quarterback, Matt Leinart, and his ex-girlfriend, Brynn Cameron, are experiencing difficulty raising their son as separated parents.

The former pair split up just after their little boy, Cole Cameron Leinart, was born in late 2006.

Matt and Brynn are finding it very difficult to remain on good terms when their parenting skills differ so tremendously.

“I don't want to sit here and bad-mouth his lifestyle,” Brynn tells the Ventura County Star, “but it is hard because we are different people. He likes that Hollywood stuff and I don't like that.”

Brynn was also offended when Matt told the media that he loves being a dad.

“It's kind of hard for me as the mom, I'm with Cole probably 99.9 percent of the time – to open a magazine or read a newspaper article with Matt saying, 'Oh, I love being a dad. I love changing diapers. I love doing this.' I'm like, 'Wait, what?'"

The 21-year-old mother finishes by saying “It's been hard when I'm doing all the work, but he gets all the credit.”

But Matt, 24, insists he's trying to spend more time with his son. “Regardless of the allegations made, I have gone to great lengths to increase my custodial time with Cole,” says the Arizona Cardinals quarterback. "This includes seeking intervention from the family-law court."

Matt finished with a subtle insult aimed at his ex-girlfriend. "I don't know if Cole's mother is motivated by anger or by financial gain, but it is my sincere hope that one day we will be able to effectively co-parent our son who we both love very much." 

Hopefully (for the sake of their little boy) these two parents can work things out.
