“And my biggest fear is, as someone who’s driven — many times stubborn and selfish — I try to approach the world with kindness and curiosity, but I don’t think I’m personally ready, nor will I ever be, to invest the time it needs to be a great parent because I want to live life for all it is.” He said.

We have our disagreements, but we handle them right then and there, and nothing is too uncomfortable to be unapproachable.”
