Frank Barkley (father)
The father plays an important part in life of almost each athlete. Surely, you’ve heard numerous times from famous sportsmen‘s, that their dads introduced them to a certain kind of sports and coached them on a regular basis.
But in case of Frank and Charles Barkley, they couldn’t boast with long hours of sports workouts, which they spent together. In fact, Frank left the family, when Charles was a kid. From that time he didn’t support his ex-wife and sons financially, and Barkley family was very poor.
Frank re-married and spent all his time and money for his new spouse and kids. He came to Charles Barkley, when his son had already become a sports star. And that hurt the boy, who needed the father during the years of his poor childhood. And he came, when the fuss around his talented son had already started.
At first Charles couldn’t accept his father into his life again. But later they reconciled. Frank Barkley gave an interview to Roy Firestone, the talk show host. He told that he regretted he wasn’t close with his sons with Charcey Glenn in their early years.
