It is not weird for a dad to be doing the dishes, the laundry, and taking the kids to school, and read them stories for bed.

You don't want your children to look at you like you are anything special other than their dad.

I think everyone thinks their dad is a little bit odd or crazy. As they get older, they develop their own little habits. They have a certain way that they like to live their life, and nothing is going to interrupt that.

As a father, you immediately become uncool, especially the older they get. The older you get, it's inevitable that, as cool as you think you are, you're probably just as lame in your kids' eyes.

I think a dad has to make his daughter feel that he's genuinely interested in what she's going through.

My mom's been married three times; my dad has been married a lot. I didn't really see my dad that much.

I love my dad so much. I don't have that cool thing where I have dad issues.

Dad needs to show an incredible amount of respect and humor and friendship toward his mate so the kids understand their parents are sexy, they're fun, they do things together, they're best friends. Kids learn by example. If I respect Mom, they're going to respect Mom.

In every movie and every TV show, the dads are morons. And dads tend to react by doing what dads do best: They check out. They say, 'Ask your mother.'

I think being a dad is scary. I mean, I'm not that grown-up myself.
