Even if I tried to be my dad, it would be a mediocre, slightly embarrassing version.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's not easy being a father, but I've been allowed a comeback.
I've always wanted to be a dad.
I think you need something to take care of in order to figure out who you are as a person, and in that way, being a dad has levelled me out more than anything. You've just got to be good for that person no matter what's going on in your head that day.
I'm just constantly trying to be a good dad.
I wasn't against becoming a dad: I'd had a good childhood, as childhoods go, and as role models, my imperfect parents were as good as or better than most.
Being a father is just wonderful.
All I want to do is be a good dad, but I'm pretty bad at it.
My dad was real hard on me. He wasn't really big on congratulating and stuff like that.
I thought I could never be the actor Dad was, so I avoided it for a while.
I was a really involved dad - not because I'm such a wonderful person. I like being a dad.
