Maliki Cummings mother was a drug affected person and his father was an abusive alcoholic, who ended up with a long term jail. His mother continued on drugs and could not properly look after her children and gave them up to foster care.
Malaki and his younger sister went through 11 foster homes in 5 years, from the age of 3 to 8, then finally one of the foster carers adopted Malaki and his sister and made sure he went to school.
