I didn't have a father when I was growing up, and I vowed to be there with my kids.

I did not have a father. It was my mom who chose to be alone. She felt that she would be better off by herself with me after I was born.
While I didn't have a father around, I did have - and what I want my children to both experience - the ability to explore, experiment and enjoy life as a kid.

I don't think I was all that late in becoming a father.
I never knew my father, and I'd hate to repeat that kind of cycle with my own children, because I'd also want to be there for them no matter what.
I'm a father myself for the first time in my life, and I had very very loving parents.
I was just a kid and I didn't have a dad. That's hard, because when you're a kid, you blame yourself for everything. And I blamed myself for him not being around, for my parents not being together.
When I was growing up, I wanted to adopt, because I was aware there were kids that didn't have parents.
I can't say I had an ideal father, and I'm not a father myself.
